Do we do this to young boys?

 Surely they have similar issues. Or have we females succumbed to what the media and society have defined as beauty/self acceptance? 


Teach a class of middle school boys,(i have). The Axe fumes could knock you over.

 

It's called pheramones and hormones.

 

And yes, I have succumbed to societal beauty and fully accept myself, warts and all.


LOL!  I have 13 year old twins - a boy and a girl.  About a year ago, we realized that our son was in need of deodorant.  When I took him to Target, he headed right to the Axe.  Don't know why the boys like it so much, but they all stink!  But I tried to keep my composure and not be too judgemental.  Like a good friend once told me, when it comes to your kids sometimes you have to pick your battles.
