Suggestions for what you can do: Host an 'indulgence' party. Encourage guests to wear whatever makes them feel goodsweat suits, flip flops, pajamasand serve delicious, decadent foods or silly snacks without the guilt. A party is a great way to let your friends know about the Love Your Body campaign. A house party can be your "action" or a celebration at the end of a long day of actions and activities.

"NOW Declares Oct 19th "Love Your Body Day 2005""
I'm thinking of getting mine a bottle of Jack Daniels and a carton of cigs! :)
"Urge everyone to come prepared to talk about their feelings and experiences."
People that would attend an indulgence party hardly need urging.
I love me everyday.
Getting mine some La Gloria Cubana cigars and a bottle of Hennessey....
Love your body. Just hate anything that attaches to the uterus after a night of drinking, self indulgence and unprotected sex.
"NOW Declares Oct 19th "Love Your Body Day 2005""
If it wasn't for self love these babes would get no love at all.
What, no recipes?

She loves her body, and I hate NOW.
What a stupid waste of time they are.
Get you mind out of the gutter, missy!!
What? I just meant that that is your personal time each day to reflect on your physical self, and be comfortable with your nekkididity, without anyone else there to judge. That's all, you pervert.
Yes, that's why I have a mirrored shower. To look at my hairy butt!
From the website:
Stage a mock beauty pageant or plan another action Not only do pageants uphold certain beauty standards that are dangerous and nearly impossible to attain, they pit women against each other. Subvert this institution by staging a mock beauty pageant!
Good grief.
Come up with new ways to showcase women's talents, by sponsoring trivia contests, sporty games like darts, or tire-changing competitions.
How about boxing.
Hold the event in a public space such as a campus common area, city park, or even onstage at the mall (this might even be a good way to publicly present mall-project certificates to store owners).
I'm sure that's really what shoppers want to see at the mall--a bunch of man-hating bull dykes ranting and raving about how the Victoria's Secret store is degrading to women.
"No man hates feminists more than a feminine woman."
Talk about feelings??? Arggh, how boring. I'd prefer to watch grass grow.
I think I would have to amend that a little:
"No man hates feminists more than a tomboy."
From what I see of feminists, they take all the annoying "feminine" qualities--extreme emotionalism, inability to follow logic, etc., and exaggerate them in a really ugly way, but then want to be treated just like men. But being treated like men isn't within their reach. If a woman really wants to make her way comfortably in a man's world, she has to be a tomboy. Remember all the trouble the president of Harvard got into with his statement about why he thinks women don't go into science? The very women who were all upset about it were exactly the kind of women who don't study science.
