[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By the way, there are more than one of us playing devil's advocate in here. Full disclosure, I dye my gray hair and wear some makeup, so I am a conformist at best. But seriously, anyone who can't see that women are wasting tons of time and money on completely manufactured problems like uneven skin tone, visible panty lines, thigh gap, flyaways, "fine lines", etc. is not being honest. The beauty and weight-loss "industries" are just that, businesses that profit from our anxieties about the way we look. And lashing out about someone who has armpit hair really makes you look superficial. I mean, what happened to being oneself and making your own decisions? That was fine for the woman who felt great putting on lots of makeup and wearing high heels.[/quote]

I don't know any woman who actually wastes her time worrying about that much crap. More, do I look good? end of list. I hate my big boobs and wide feet, but that's because finding decent bras and shoes is expensive and not fun, not because society tells me I should have normal sized boobs and dainty feet. [/quote]

Are you under a rock? Of course women worry about these things. The fact that you claim you dont  doesn't change the experience and existence of millions of other women and businesses aimed directly at those insecurities [/quote]
