Demi Lovato shared a powerful snap to promote body positivity on Monday. Her message read “My body isn’t perfect, I’m not my fittest but this me!! And I love it”

Seventeen Magazine contributor Hannah Orenstein believes her message though well-intended, is flawed.“The issue is that by saying she’s not perfect, she implies that there’s a standard of physical perfection that young women need to meet. That’s total BS. As long as you’re healthy (and that’s a conversation for you and your doctor, no one else’s opinion matters), you’re perfect.”

What do you think fashion heroes?

With a little help from her friends at SPARK Summit, Julia Bluhm’s a one girl revolution! Not satisfied with unrealistic images of women and girls in Seventeen Magazine, Julia took her fight right to their door with a challenge to end Photoshopping their editorial features. They knew better than to think they could go up against a Push Girl and win, so say hello to Seventeen’s Body Peace Pledge and goodbye to airbrushed bodies! Push Girls know true beauty comes from inside.

Tell your friend she’s got a little Julia in her. Reblog now to give her a little push.
