Tinkerbell's Surgery
Tinkerbell's Surgery
***ATTENTION***
A dog that my mom and I rescued about a year & a half ago from an extremely neglectful home, a Maltese named Tinkerbell (Tink) is in trouble. She was 3 pounds when we first got her. We nursed her back to health, and she was doing great, until now. A deteriorated disk in her neck has gotten serious. She can just barely walk. She constantly cries in pain. Thankfully, there is something we can do, but it is going to cost money we simply do not have. The MRI Is going to cost $3,000 & the surgery is going to cost $2,000. No matter what, we are going to do what we can do help her, but I. Hoping we can raise some money for it. Anything helps. Tink is such a sweet girl and has been through so much; she doesn't deserve this. We love Tink & hate seeing her in pain, please help us!

Disney Princesses: The Perfect Body?
 |
| Source |
Disney princesses like Cinderella, Belle and Ariel have been displaying society's "perfect body" for women since the year 2000. This body can be described simply as skinny. Not only this, but they show the impossible look of constant makeup on their faces. Even underwater, Ariel has absolutely no blemishes.
The problem with this is that, like Barbie, the main audiences of the Disney Princess movies and products is young females. This starts a trend of females seeing their bodies as imperfect. Since this starts at such a young age, as young as three years old, it can only get worse. The problem progresses into adolescence and adulthood.
The only thing we can do about this is realize that these bodies, looks and perceptions of "beauty" are simply unattainable.
