Then again were talking about marketing people who never have rated high on the common sense scale.

If it were still fashionable to be over-weight with lots of roles hanging all over our bodies like way back when, there would be millions of potential super models. I'd like to see rounder healthier faces and a natural looking hip to waist ratio on women in fashion magazines. As for men, I'm thinking less oil. When was the last time you saw a muscular guy walking about without a shirt glowing as the sun reflects off him due to an unhealthy over-production of oil that has coated his skin. I imagine he'd also be covered in acne if that were a realistic situation. Of course, we can always learn what a proper couple looks like by watching popular sitcoms. I believe, I'm supposed to actually desire the body of the man I marry when he has a giant gut hanging over his pants that are barely pulled up over his butt crack while I struggle to maintain some kind of anorexic style body. We can enable each other to be completely unhealthy, die early as a result, and leave our young children in the care of our slightly psychotic parents. :) In the old days there weren’t millions of prints being sent out to millions of people who have no chance of achieving the “accepted” norm in a society dominated by over-eating and sitting around.

I suspect the successful artists were well-versed on how to cure acne, delete or add bulges in the fashionable places, heal withered limbs, etc. Today such actions are so evil they must be banned by law. I am so glad I live in such enlightened times. Prior to the 19th century, one relied on a portrait artist to produce a likeness of a human.
