The media centers on white men and has successfully convinced them (generally) that the perfect mate consists of a paper-doll thin, walking Barbie doll. That’s why they go for the anorexic women – they’ve been sucked voraciously into a false image of beauty. Check out a copy of Playboy sometime, and see if you don’t see what I mean. Don’t just look at the centerfold; read the articles, look at the pictures of Hugh Hefner, read the interviews – the Barbie element is evident in all of these.
