My say

Eat healthy

Being healthy is so important, specially now that fast food industries have become more popular between people. Sometimes eating fast food is good, why not? But eating it regularly is not. We need to reduce our comsumption because fast food bring us nothing but bad news. It makes you weaker and ill every time you eat it, you gain weigth and you are more vulnerable to any type of healthy illness. 

We are free to eat anything we want but always being concious of what we are eating.

Start being "green" and add vegetables to your diet, i will make you feel good with yourself and it'll help you to live longer. I'm not the most healthier person in the world, but i've started eating more vegetables and fruit and i feel completly different and more confident with myself. 

So i really think that eating healthy is very important in our lifes!

Teen suicide on the rise amongst Canadian girls

In early 2016, five teenagers from Woodstock, Ontario killed themselves in just as many months, leaving not only their family but the community as a whole bewildered with grief.

Across the country, suicide amongst teen girls and young women is on the rise, while male suicide in the same age group declines, according to data released by Statistics Canada on Thursday.

Health experts have long been concerned with the prevalence of suicide amongst young men. It has been called a "silent epidemic" and for good reason. In 2013, men were three times as likely to kill themselves as women, the latest data shows. Studies indicate that there is a strong link between a history of sexual abuse and suicide attempts.

MY OPINION: I think that people should be more concerned about these news, because these suicides are not normal. Sexual abuse is a problem that has been chasing us for years and we need to stop it before it gets even worse.

My Say

Feminism

I want to talk about feminism because it is a relevant topic this year. Women has become a crucial paper in every aspect. Being a woman nowadays is very dangerous and in some countries is still seen as a sin and as a curse. 

I'm glad of being a girl but it's very hard to go aigainst the justice without any support. 

I want to say out loud that women have the same matter as men and we can do exactly the same stuff they do. Being a woman is never a sin or a curse, we are a blessing and together we're stronger. Being a feminist means to fight and believe in and for the social, political and economic equality of the sexes.

I agree with the results, because i usually dress with an urban style and i really like it. But my personal fashion is all mixed, i don't wear the same type of clothes all the time.

A TED TALK ON FASHION

Geena Rocero is a Philipine model who is currently living in San Francisco (EE.UU). 

She once was a boy when she was little until she realized that she wanted to become a woman and a model. In this video, basically she explains how she came out.

When she was younger, at the age of 15 she assisted to a model catwalk and she saw a man dressed as a woman and she says that she wanted to be like her because she thought that she was the most beautiful women that she has ever seen.  In that moment, the model asked Geena why she didn't participate on the catwalk and she said that she would love to but she couldn't. Then that model told Geena not to worry about anything, but she wanted her to model. 

Geena won the catwalk and then she realized that she really wanted to become a model.

Geena's mother moved to San Francisco in 2001 and told Geena to move with her but she didn't want to. A few weeks later her mother called her again to ask her one more time to move with her, and she also told Geena that she could change her indentity and her name if she move to San Francisco. 

Afterwards, Geena moved to San Francisco, changed her name and came through a plastic surgery to change her genitals. She felt so happy with herself and very lucky.

MY OPINION:

In my opinion, i think that she's very brave to tell this story and i think that she's doing a good job by sharing her story with other people like her, i mean people that want to come out but they don't have the strenght. She is helping to other people to make their mind and to fight for what they really want to become. 

Geena has relation with fashion because she's a model and she has the oportunity to share her story and help others.
