I
was discussing Fashion Week in NYC with Ken Perlin and the recent
trends in models to come from Eastern Europe or the Midwest. In both
cases it was noted the high percentage of genetic material from
Northern Europe which results in very tall, very slender women, at
least when they are young.
As
I read more about these trends and the issue of moral responsibility
as poor, young women from the former Soviet Union literally starve
themselves to death, starve themselves to fainting, throw themselves
into hooking to make ends meet, resort to surgery to reduce weight,
an industry observer, Emma Nussbaum, made the following observation:
A large number of the dominant fashion designers are homosexual men with pederastic interests and they insist that their female models lean toward the looks of boys in their early adolescence, which requires a very thin and lanky appearance, and the tall and masculine girls willing or forced to starve themselves to present such looks are going to disproportionately come from regions comprising of a large number of poor individuals with a Northern European appearance.
So
I thought about that for a moment.
Oh, I said.
Oh, I said.
