    To make normal women feel so inadequate that they can't achieve an ideal of beauty that they spend a fortune on things to make them feel better about their appearance, from spot cream to a boob job. This makes advertisers and health and beauty corporations rich and allows men to rule the world while the women are busy feeling inadequate and drinking slimfast.

    • Yes, marketing is a very big factor. How much do women give up to the cosmetics industry each year?

    • Yup that was gonna be my answer :) It's all about making slimey bucks. Make us feel like crap so we'll spend our money on bullshit.
