[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so sick of people bashing Carole's looks. Especially women. It's such a low blow. I think Carole is lovely. [/quote]

You realize that this type of show is froth, right?  A guilty pleasure for viewers, and little substance, with a cast of superficial women who agreed to this, and who recognize that their looks and personalities will be scrutinized?  Carole agreed to do this.  She put herself into this situation.  She isn't campaigning for public office or debating philosophy or literature in an academic setting.  She is on a reality show in which superficial women present themselves and their superficial problems and looks to be analyzed.

She knows she isn't physically attractive; it isn't a surprise to her that there is discussion about her looks in the media, etc. because she VOLUNTARILY chose to be on RHONY.

If you don't want to read people's opinions about a reality show casts' looks and personalities, you should probably find a different form of media to read and write about.

I do think Carole is ugly.  And I think this sort of thread is the appropriate place to write about it.

If I were commenting on a thread about politics or literature or philosophy, I wouldn't be focusing on peoples' personal appearances.  But ugly Carole's huge mouth is fair game in a thread about RHONY.[/quote]

The show is about "real" women and their lives, not their looks. It is about friendship, society, relationships and--to a lesser degree--business and success. How the women perform in those arenas is certainly fair game.

This is not "How Do These Women Look?" That would be a different show. Not even "America's Next Top Model" is about looks--it's about "performing" with those looks.

Did you never take basic literary criticism or film classes?[/quote]
