What do you think about this? I think the media has far more to answer for than any other group when it comes to this issue.
Have a look at ''women's" magazines like Bleat (sorry, I mean Heat). On one page, they'll be whining about how skinny Vic Beckham is and how she's endangering herself.
Nine pages later, they're lauding her as a fashion icon and telling you how to ''get her look'', ie that of a stick insect, recommendiong clothes designed for women who have starved themselves to a size 0, and telling us how Posh is a fashion icon to be emulated.
Same with Keira Knightly, Paris Hilton, Geri Halliwell in the past, Nicole Bi.tchie, Lindsay Lohan, the Olson twins, and everybody else on the planet except Johnny Vegas.
What say you?
