Following a societal norm doesn't mean you control it. Alot of the men who think that twiggy is teh hawt are victims of their own stupidity. I'm telling you, stop letting gay men decide what is attractive about a woman's appearance and alot of this stops. If the average straight guy were in charge of Cosmo, you would see alot more Selma Hayek's and less Kate Moss.

Also,lets be fair, women are as judgemental about appearance as men, if not more so. I had a distorted body image way before I was teh fat, thanks in a large part to the girls more than the boys. I was skinny and wouldn't take my shirt off because I thought I was fat. I would only eat one meal a day and probably was damned close to becoming Anorexic. Check out my facebook pics, there is one of me in there.
