Feminism: does it play a part?

[newwoman]

She has gained some weight since marriage, but I have consistently told her that I think she is beautiful. And I do.

My H said the same things to me but if she doesn't feel it inside, it won't matter how much you say it. I think it's very easy for us as women to lose touch with the woman inside of us, especially as we become mothers. Maybe she needs to find a way to reconnect with the woman inside of herself.
