The Need for More....and more...and more!

     Yeah, I’ve read all of the headlines about young women getting life disfiguring results due to negligently performed butt injections. I’d even read about some of these women losing their lives, trying to get the much-craved after "Big Booty". I’ve seen the pictures of what look like circus clown-like figures, with the disproportionate thigh-to-butt ratios. And these images aren’t of the girl-next-door. These images are coming from well- known, established stars!! I watched a Facebook video the other day of a young lady, walking down the street, with short shorts on and what looked like cushions from an old couch pillow, stuffed into her shorts, in an attempt to fake the fake! Has it really gotten that bad that we would stoop to even faking the fake!!???

     There are women who would rather risk their health because they are afraid to lose their butts in the process of losing weight. All of the ass shots and selfies are attempts at gaining the attention of strangers. What has really happened, that young, beautiful women, would risk their lives to get the attention of some random male or for a “like” on social media?? And with ALL of the pictures, which seems to be posted every hour on the hour, showcasing your behind, how many times has that actually gotten you a real man? A steady, man? Someone who is actually interested in more than just getting you to go to bed with him?  
 
     Do you know why the random, one-night-stands and "in-and-out" dudes pick you? Because your lack of self- esteem and self- confidence is blasted, like a neon sign upon your forehead, in every one of those selfies. Yeah, your make-up is on “fleek” as they say, and you have that big smile plastered on your face but beneath all of that, your insecurities show through like a beacon in a starless night. It’s bad enough the so-called music artists have fallen prey to this obsession but children look up to these women. Why? Because mom and/or daddy’s not there or isn’t strong enough to guide her/his daughters. I can go on for a minute about absent life figures but I’ll stop here for now.

    
     Ladies, YOU ARE ENOUGH!! You are beautiful and ENOUGH just the way God created you!  And don't get me wrong....there's nothing wrong with trying to enhance what you have, preferably naturally.  But when you do so at the risk of your life, it's gone too far!  And those fake booties aren't even cute!!  

     My questions to you are: 1. What other dangerous trends have you noticed our young falling prey to? 2. What do you feel the problem is? 3. What do you feel the solution is?

So it begins! "Who are you and what brings you here??"

Hey! How y'all doing? Let me introduce myself... I'm JustTrena, I'm a woman (mother, sister, aunt, friend, etc..) living life in this crazy world of ours! My reason for starting this blog? To talk.....that's it. To share my thoughts, and hopefully hear from YOU in return. I want to share information, exchange ideas, and engage in the conversations some may find uncomfortable to have. The only "rule" of engagement is the attempt to voice your truth in a respectful manner. That's it! I've been thinking of starting this type of blog for a while now but what finally pushed me to start this NOW was the BET Awards 2015 that aired last night and the comments that arose from it. Did you watch? I didn't ...but I heard plenty. The main thing being the topic of "Butt shots" and other ways our girls/women today are lost. I know...I know you're saying, "Butt shots? Really JustTrena?" Yep, it's come down to having the need to discuss how the lack of attention and the things we'll do for it in this day and time, is affecting us. Now....let's get started!
