You must watch this video!

Dove is at it again, with a hard-hitting commercial about the effects the media and images of "perfection" have on the little girls of America. Please watch it - over and over again - until you can say out loud with a slight sense of relief and a healthy dose of anger, "No wonder our society is so messed up."

Watch it here.

Send it to your friends, especially those with daughters. I think it's fabulous.

That's an awesome ad. We're exposed to so much advertising on a daily basis, and I don't even think we realize it. Also, isn't it funny how the majority of the ads are targeted at women. Not all, but most.

I know, Nikki - it happens so slowly but to see something in fast forward is eye-opening!

BTW everyone, I blogged about this in a longer essay on the Huffington Post: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/leslie-goldman/dove-love_b_66841.html
