BB Surf: June 6
Jezebel, I Must, I Must Enhance My Bust! Cheaper than implants, and apparently as effective as a cold shower (no, really, read the article), Rodial’s “boob job” is flying off the shelves. Doesn’t anybody like their chest the way it is? If you’re out there, let us know!
Guardian, Enhanced profits at the cutting edge of plastic surgery Never mind the pun; plastic surgery is extremely profitable in England, and they’re catching up to the U.S. quick.
Shakesville, I Done Good–Where’s My Sexual Gratification? “Hey guys, recycle! ‘Cause we’ll totally get with you if you do.” Thank you for touching on this, Shakesville; this kind of sexist advertising follows us everywhere, so much that sometimes we don’t even notice.
Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Author advises women on creating a tasteful image Oh, thank god. Simon Doonan, creative director for Barney’s New York (you’ve seen him on VH1, I’m sure), has condemned the “whorish norm” of current women’s fashions. Maybe now people will listen? … Anybody?

Adweek (via Jezebel), Gamers Will Not Be Denied Their Ample Boobs An outcry was raised when a video game’s sequel forgot to give the female characters huge racks. But worry not! “The company also told gamers it was ‘working on a fix for this, and your breasts should be back to normal soon.’” Hmm, breasts that change size in just a day or two. Where have we seen this before?
Comedy Central, How Barbara Walters Saved the World from Hillary’s Thunder Thighs Oh, dear. Wrong way to go on this one, buddy. That’s all we’ll say.













I read the comments from Simon Doonan from Barney’s and was thrilled. I loved what he has to say:
“Anyone has the power to reinvent herself; the trick is not to conform to today’s “overtly whorish” norm (fake tan, collagen, implants, tattoos).”
What this tells me is that you don’t have to go into “whore mode”….fake tan, implants, bleached blond hair, etc. to reinvent yourself and be beautiful. Too many women these days think these things are the ONLY thing that leads to beauty. Simply not true. It’s all about the right outfit for you body, clean make-up, nicely styled hair and a SELF-CONFIDENCE.
