I'd argue it's stories like this that 'put women off sport', and also 'put women off being women'
BBC News - Women athletes fear pressures over appearance
The only people who believe in the 'perfect' woman is...wait for it....women.
Brainwashed by 'girly' magazines to believe that all blokes want either, the latest fashion stick insect, Jodie Marsh, Cheryl Cole or (god forbid) Katie Price. It's typical that this piece was written by....wait for it..... women.
I think of myself as a typical bloke, ok i'm well past my prime but I can still look and admire. :P
Us typical blokes don't have an ideal 'perfect' woman, we like fat, thin, spotty, unblemished, smart, dumb, shapely and unshapely. We most definitely do not like the airbrushed, malnourished, publicity seeking rent-a-totties in the aforemetioned girly mags.
Women fought for the vote, then they fought for equality, now they appear to be fighting amongst themselves over what makes them attractive to men, without actually asking..men!
