So I decided to ask people about the insecurities they have…

IMG_4963The most comment part of the body people feel uncomfortable about tit the tummy area. This does actually surprise me a little because the tummy is often always covered up, weather in the summer you wear vests or t-shirts, or in the winter you wear jumpers and long sleeved tops. Although of course over the past few summers, the ‘crop top’ has stormed it’s way back into ‘fashion’, so this may have something to do with it.. especially as a few people mentioned they are influenced by celebs, magazine and what is ‘in fashion’ anyway.
I did also notice that younger people below the age of about 22, were really influenced by their friends and celebrities, whereas slightly older women, including people that are now parents are influenced by their family members. I know I am taking a huge guess here.. but my guess is that, the link with popularity of social media such as Intstagram or Pintrest in younger people, and not as much with older people or people with childrenĀ could be a huge influencing factor to this.
I did also get one response from a girl who is in the year below me (she is now just turning 18) that she did not wish to respond to my questions as she felt they were too personal.. this did interest me and I would have loved to know why she thought this, however she did not wish to continue the conversation so I thought I should respect her wishes.
