There has been a number of posts, tweets and Facebook status’s regarding the campaign to say no to nudity in men’s mags.

Well this is my opinion on it all.

Let me start off my stating I am no prude. I think the human body is a beautiful thing and I admire it greatly.

Saying that I don’t really want to be exposed to naked pictures everywhere I go.

I believe we have lost respect for ourselves, especially as women. I don’t believe equality is to be found in nudity.

Our body should be saved for our partners our husbands not the local lads in the town in the nightclub.

Don’t get me wrong back in the day I loved dressing up and feeling sexy but I learned that sometimes I really needed to love myself more.

But regardless of the whole debate of how women should dress etc.

The main reason I don’t want these nude pictures in the magazines is this.

 I have children.

I have three amazing girls who are growing up believing beauty is to be found in the way you look.

 

Self confidence being destroyed because they don’t look like the model they see in the magazines.

Believing that to get a boyfriend is all down to the short skirt and crop tops.

It’s so wrong.

I also believe we are selling the guys short. I know many men my husband included who don’t find the false images they see in the magazines sexy.

They understand that there is more to relationships and more to life.

Yet the new generation of men are being raised up differently. Seeing woman as a sex subjects rather than the beautiful people they are.

Its because of my convictions that I was happy enough to sign this petition. Asking Edward Timpson MP to make it illegal to display porn around children.

Please consider adding your name to this petition.

Let us respect ourselves and respect each other.
