They look like women I would actually meet and see.<BR/><BR/>When teaching meda studies courses, sometimes we get into the topic of how women are portrayed in visual media. Needless to say that the ideal has become such a daunting standard to live up to, that we often used pictures like this to show that the people don't really look like movie stars. Hell, the movie stars themselves don't look like movie stars either.X.

They are no different than average, everyday women.<BR/><BR/>holly,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for letting me know about the link. I don't understand what happened. If us regular women had the hair, photography and makeup, we too would be gorgeous.<BR/><BR/>chelle y.<BR/><BR/>I glad you feel better and that was actually my point. Women should all be okay and comfortable in their own skin. I too wish young girls saw the stars as they really are and not what they are made up to be.<BR/><BR/>on a limb with claudia,<BR/><BR/>You make an excellent point physical, superficial beauty fades with time. That's why it becomes important to have inner beauty. I know it sounds cliché, but as Marilyn Monroe put it "we all lose our charm in the end".<BR/><BR/>lori,<BR/><BR/>It does seem like something Malcolm would do, but alas it was my idea. I actually wasn't trying to mean, but rather just trying to let regular ladies like myself know that what they using as a barometer for beauty is an illusion.<BR/><BR/>jay,<BR/><BR/>Some needed the help a little more than others.<BR/><BR/>picturing of life,<BR/><BR/>The last celebrity is Jessica Simpson.<BR/><BR/>b boys mom,<BR/><BR/>That was the goal.

Since most of these w/o makeup photos are horrid, it'll be easier to say which ones don't look all that bad. My vote goes to Halle, Julia, and the celeb in the last pic (Jessica Simpson).Malcolmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02065814455731328574noreply@blogger.com
