Here's something that occurred to me today whilst out and about. There are suddenly these posters everywhere advertising some new US show called 'ugly betty' or something. Now if the title is refering to the lassie on the poster then your culture's view of beauty is seriously skewed. She's better looking than all the girlfriends I ever had and I thought they were all really beautiful. Now obviously I'm an oddball and I think spectacles look fantastic but really! A lot of self-esteem gets needlessly damaged by this sort of crap. Or maybe I'm missing some vital information somewhere...

ZOMG YOU'RE SO RIGHT! The country's sence of beauty is officially screwed.
