here is a snippet:Blyth claims that virtually every photo in women's magazines has been airbrushed or retouched. Models are made thinner and taller at the click of a button until their body types would be medically classified as emaciated. No wonder, Blyth says, that women feel insecure. 'Of course, these models and actresses don't look like their pictures either because their pictures are airbrushed to perfection,' she said.
It seems unlikely that Blyth will be receiving any more of her once regular invitations to wine and dine with the powers of Manhattan's media universe. But she says she has no regrets about coming forward with her message that American women have never had it so good. She said they are healthier and happier than ever before - no matter what their magazines tell them. 'In truth, this is a marvellous time for women... that's really the biggest, the most important story about women today,' she said.
