So basically people won't know what to make of this unless they've read other writing from you. Confusing.

Women aren't as floppy and it's more difficult to take them through security at the airport.

Women today, geesh!

I've learned having read Charles' previous writings never really help understand his current offerings. Something tells me he's proud of that.

Exactly.

Professional entertainers today. Entertainers with professional photography and styling. Some non-professional entertainers look like this, but not enough to label them "Women Today."

Can you not tell the difference?

The cut on the rest of the clothes in the three mags to the left of it is almost identical...
Was that the point of the post?

Look, the best ones are Bust and Vanity Fair, of the ones I see there. In terms of content - and at least Bust has a better self-image for women.

Yup. The exceptions are women who are incredibly hot and famous, such as Halle Berry or Sandra Oh.

umm... the only time white women are on magazine covers is ALSO when they're incredibly hot and famous.

that is all.

I don't see many faces darker than milky tea on most covers. Not many narrow eyes or broad, flat noses. Granted, that's because those things aren't hot in general. Right?
