"In the eye of the beholder?"-BBC article

"While Africans still prefer women to be fleshier than they do in the West, young girls here are increasingly concerned with being thin. The more exposed we are to western media, the more we buy into it."-Clair Murphy

I think this quote from the BBC article "In the eye of the beholder?" is really dead onto the fact that the influence from the west is in fact change the way women see beauty because over in Africa the men still like the more fleshier women to the super skinny, and starved female. In a way I sort of agree, because when your super skinny a women and man doesn't look very healthy, and I wouldn't think they were healthy enough to bare a child, And they need to eat.
