Negative Positive
Title: A Critic
Review: First of all, I'd just like to ask why a man is the expert on women's health and fitness. He's certainly knowledgeable, but a woman's perspective might seem more valuable. More importantly, though, the reason a woman's self-confidence is affected every time she looks in the mirror (as the book's description claims is the case) is becuase our society mandates a ridiculously strict and unrealistic standard of beauty. How about a fitness book that emphasizes the fact that people come in all shapes and sizes and that a woman doesn't have to resemble a model to be beautiful--clothed or naked. That would be truly positive and beneficial for women to realize. Perhaps we should all spend 15 minutes a day looking in the mirror and assuring ourselves that we're beautiful and attractive even if we're not super skinny with toned legs and a six-pack.
