You mis-quoted my post (I never wrote the second part of your “quote”), and I think that your paraphrase does not accurately represent the point I am trying to make.
A better paraphrase would be: “The world tells girls that their looks are more important than anything, and you shouldn’t reinforce this belief.”
Retracted- When your post first went up, the quotes were joined to look like a single quote. Now that they are separated, I can see that the second quote is from the article link. Sorry! Thanks for the fix!
To clarify- The first quote is mine, the second quote is from the article link.
Sorry about that, I should have been clearer as to the quotes’ origin. I tend to edit my comments for a few minutes after they are posted, because there is no preview feature.
By the way, if you ever want to delete a retracted comment, refresh the page, and the “delete” option will magically appear, provided no one replied yet.

Thanks for the info! I didn’t know that. Normally if I look at a comment again, it is because someone replied, so I never noticed a delete button that appears if there are no replies. Very useful!
