Bette vs. Kim

   A few days ago was International Women's Day. And the release of yet another nude Instagram photo of Kim Kardashian. What is wrong with this woman? What makes her so insecure that she needs, yes I said needs, the attention of strangers to make her feel worthy?

  She comes from a big family. Her husband seems to truly care about her. With two children she gets unconditional love. Money isn't an issue. In a business sense she is successful. So why does she crave the sort of attention these photos garner?

  I heard someone say it's her "brand" but I don't necessarily agree. She has said many times she is more than the sex tape that made her famous. That she wants to distance herself from that world and focus on the fashion end of her life. If that is true she really is going about it the wrong way.

  And while the world may think she is the cover girl of self confidence I couldn't disagree more. She seems to always need someone to say how great she is. How beautiful. Mind you that is the impression she gives off but since she lives her life on public display....again her choice with reality shows, tv weddings etc....what else do we have to go on?

  Her catch phrase seems to be about body shaming. How she isn't going to stand by and let people do that. However....as soon as Bette Midler made a joke, a very very funny joke, about the photo, Kim decided to shoot back with an age and fat comment. Isn't that what she was "fighting" against?

  You can't have it both ways Kim. Either you stand up against body shaming or you do it. Pick one. Better yet walk away from the camera and get yourself some counselling. Figure out why you have this over whelming need to have people say you are pretty. 

  You have a daughter to raise and she will follow your lead when it comes to body confidence.
