Each to his/her own I guess.
Personally, I can see beauty in many different shapes and sizes. TV would be far less interesting if all the actors/actresses tried to conform to one narrow definition of beauty. If TV is meant to portray a situation in life, then there should be room for many types of bodies & faces, because that's how the world actually is!
Dreamkitty, there's a difference between "the truth" and "your honest opinion", and I think people get annoyed when you state an opinion as though it is a fact. I've noticed your various critiques of different personalities, and you obviously go for the tall skinny model look. If that's what works for you, then all power to you. But I disagree that the various women that you comment on would look "better" (which I would interpret as being "more attractive to you") by conforming to some kind of homogeneous ideal. Personally, the tall skinny types don't do much for me. And the lengths that some actresses go to to maintain a body type that is not natural to them is both disturbing and sad.
I'd like to point out that there are many non-model-like actresses that are roaringly successful because they have a lot of talent. I might be wrong, but I think talent will guarantee an actress longevity more than looks. Many girls with all the classic looks try to make it in the business, and the ones without talent invariably vanish quite quickly.
Dreamkitty, this isn't an attack, just an alternative point of view.
Peace, mate.
Tuxedo.
Tuxedo I couldn't agree with everything in your post more. it's because of people like dreamkitty that actors get eating disorders. Ashleigh is beautiful just the way she is.
