Stereotyping Is Dangerous
Once upon a time, there was a
girl who wanted to participate in “Little Miss Universe”. Unfortunately, the
organizers told her that she couldn’t participate because she shouldn’t be so
overweighted.
This really affected her, so days
went by and she started eating less every time. Two months later, her parents
told her that she had to go to the doctor, where she was diagnosed with
anorexia; therefore, she got to the point when she could only see her fragile
bones.
She knew that if she didn’t take
care of herself she would die, so she started eating normally. She finally was
healthy and started her own beauty contest that could include every size and
color. This later became the most popular beauty contest.
Lesson learned: Believe in
yourself, accept your body as it is. Never try to fit stereotypes because that can be
dangerous.
