Don't know if this belongs in Support or General Chatter...
The untouched version of Faith Hill's Redbook magazine cover is floating around the internet. I saw it on a 3fc blog (sorry, don't remember which one) and also here.
Here's an even more dramatic series of "before" and "after" shots that shows digital dieting and anti-aging. Roll over the photos with your mouse to see the untouched-up version. Look especially at the lower left side (the model's right hip) in the fourth photo: nifty, there goes 20 pounds!
We all know that magazines lie, of course. No news there. But most of us probably don't realize the extent to which magazines create a body image and aging ideal that even the most beautiful women (like Faith Hill or the brunette model in the second series) can't live up to without hours of help from a photoshop expert.
And we wonder why so many women -- and an increasing number of men -- are growing up with eating disorders and body issues.
