[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 219182, member: 10543"] My wife knows a Girl Scout Leader who took the time to show the girls how today's extensive "photoshopping" of women in product advertising might make the girls think that absolute perfection is attainable. She used examples almost as ridiculous as those in the above post to illustrate her point and thus teach the girls that they are just fine as they are and that they needn't chase an impossible vision of beauty. My wife and I see advertisements with impossibly race-neutral "photoshopped" people who perfectly blend every nationality on the globe into one face and even gender-neutral ads that feature a virtual face that could be a man or a woman. Yes, it's all quite ridiculous. [/QUOTE]
