is it good that women have "ideals" and role models to live up to?

By the looks of things there is clearly not enough pressure on women to look good...

I think that, not only women, but us guys, too should not have any "ideals". We should not model ourselves on anybody else, just be ourselves. It maybe ok to be like someone "famous" but, at the end of the day, we are only going to be ourselves. If a woman feels good about using a role model, then they are going to be a bit false, aren't they?

I think there is too much pressuer on women to look perfect and it's a bad thing. Men, even women, see images on tv and magazines and feel like that is what is expected and how people should look, when in reality what you are seeing is definitely NOT what those people really look for. To the disbelievers... take a look at this website

The women potrayed in the media i.e music videos, adverts, models have n=been airbrushed to within an inch of their life they are NOT REAL! You only have to look at a picture of britney spears coming out of a taxi and a picture of her on an advert to see the truth. Women shouldn't be made to think that is what they should look like because it is literally impossible!

There is pressure on women to look good, but in my experience, that pressure generally comes from other women, not men.

Yes, but it is principally women themselves who are applying this pressure. Frankly, I think the female obsession with their looks smacks strongly of vanity. Sure, dress-up a little if that makes you feel better but don't make this the most important thing in your lives. Men do not obsess over this so why should you?

Why have not the Republicans made gun possession mandatory and declared the great month of November as a countrywide day without work for searching? Why did no longer they supply out a tax smash for prostitution costs? i assume they have been too busy molesting interns and abused infants at the back of the modesty panel to get to those issues mutually as that they had the Presidency AND the Congress of their administration? Gee, i could think of those could have been perfect Republican schedule products on your international.

Well, I'm not a man, but I agree with you. I cannot possibly hope to compete with airbrushed, silicone, anorexic ladies. Too bad men think they are the ones who are good looking, when that's not how real women look at all. They are all in love with fantasies that aren't real, and those fantasies make the rest of us look bad.
I wish they had something similar to make them feel bad, but they don't! (Don't give me that crap about body-builders, either. Most women don't give a crap about muscles).
