What Real Women Look Like

In a world full of images of how we "should" look it can get difficult to tell how we DO look. Our hope is to build a site where women can see what real women look like. What we really look like. Most women have spent so many years looking at themselves in mirrors that we can no longer see what's really there. With this project perhaps we will be able to more objectively see what we look like and come to some acceptance that we are all beautiful.
My Body Gallery promotes positive self image and realistic body image by showing what real women look like. Using a collection of photographs searchable by height, weight, pants size, shirt size and body type (apple body type, pear body type, banana body type and hourglass body type), mybodygallery.com helps women answer questions like "what do I look like," "what does a size 6 look like," and "do I look fat." My Body Gallery is about unretouched pictures of real women, but provides great articles as well. The Body Image Blog is stories submitted by women sharing their feelings about their bodies. News and Information is full of ideas about how to dress your body type, as well as body image studies and statistics. The only site of its kind, My Body Gallery is not about weight loss, dieting, or being judged for your appearance. It is not about slimming clothing or cosmetics. It is an accepting community of women who anonymously share their secrets about their bodies to help you feel more comfortable in your own skin.
