Have you seen some of them models without make up?
Or flattering camera angles, lighting, and maybe a little Photoshop?

Give it a couple years and they won't even have a modeling business. They'll all just be computer animated pictures of what the fashion industry thinks women should look like, sort of like the Greeks adding nonexistent muscles to the male stomach .

It's *only* a TV show. The goal of the writers and producers is *only* to increase viewership, thus increasing advertising revenue. All the rest is secondary. To look for truth in ourselves, our relationships, and feminism is a stretch. Enjoy the show, but just go there for entertainment.

Nice to have a big old think, isn't it?
