Kudos to Dove for their campaign to address the self esteem of girls!
Here is one example:

I'm a Lutheran Pastor trying to figure out what God has in store- Reflecting on life, the lectionary and whatever else leaps out.
About Me
- Law+Gospel
- I'm a proud 2011 graduate of Lutheran Theological Seminary at Gettysburg and the Pastor of Christ Lutheran Church continuing the journey that God has planned. This is where I somewhat regularly contemplate the intersection of faith and the real world, and the tension between law and the Gospel. I am blessed with a wonderful husband, two Lutheran Chicks and Toby, our beagle/pointer mix! And now for the legal lingo:Views expressed here are mine alone, and do not represent the ELCA, LTSG, or any ministry context in which I serve or to which I belong. The names in my stories have been changed to protect the innocent, as have key facts. If the story sounds familiar perhaps it is because life experiences can be universal.

While certainly a worthy undertaking to be applauded, I find it unfortunate that it leaves young boys/men without any acknowledgment that they might have similar self-esteem issues. Possibly a statement on the culture at large, though...
I cannot disagree with the notion that self-esteem is a universal concern and that is a culture " at large issue." I wonder though what is the functionally equivalent industry that affects boys the way the beauty/fashion industry affects girls. Interesting consideration to ponder- thanks Bill!
