Reply #45: I saw that ad!

[CoffeeCat]

I saw that ad about a month ago, and I was shocked!

Yes, the hedges morphed from untrimmed--into tidy little rectangles and triangles--as the woman walked by them.

I was totally turned off by that ad, and I thought to myself---geez, is anything private anymore?

And a sidebar---So women are supposed to feel like a scruffy, out-of-control lawn hedge if they aren't perfectly
(ahem) trimmed? That commercial brings out into the open what society *thinks* women should look like in areas
that are very private and they make a statement about women who don't.

It's bad enough that the media offers so many visual suggestions about what we need to look like to everyone--whip thin,
big boobs, flawless skin and face--as well as long, lustrous hair. So not only do women have to look perfect to the
entire world--apparently, even areas that are private must live up to some media-set standard.

If you think about it--it really is quite hilarious. Women's private areas are now landscaping that needs to be
perfectly coiffed. If not--your body is like an unruly, neglected and shameful shrub. LOL.

Oy vey... :eyes:
