Does perfection equal acceptance?

Do we really believe the world will accept us if we look perfect? If you really think about it vanity is just that. It is so shallow I am ashamed to even mention it.

But, even though we realize that applying makeup and fixing our hair is only going to last a short while, we still do it so we don't look like cave women!

Stretch marks are a good example. A common affliction for many women and despised by all. They may be from losing weight, gaining weight, bodybuilding, or having a child but stretch marks are rather common. Even so, it seems every woman is embarrassed by them. Yes indeed!
