[Margaret Pilkington]

I would not get naked on TV for anything......no amount of compliments would make me do it. Because I have eyes which tell me that elderly naked flesh is, well, not exactly repugnant, but close to it.

It is important to make people feel that they are more than just the sum of their looks, but I guess that society has been hoodwinked, led astray by the'beautiful people'........you know who I mean, those young men and women that the media and magazines love so much, that they give us a blow by blow account of their lives......and we fall for it.
I reckon it is because a lot of people can see(or perhaps, use their eyes would be better terminology) better than they can think....and I don't mean that in a derogatory way....just that they don't think about what their own lives give to the local community, their families, their friends.
They value themselves cheaply......that is the kind of situation that need to be addressed. People need to feel valued.
