My daughter and I are having s bit of a disagreement over the "Barbie" looks of the women on the show this year. Although I am not overly impressed by the business acumen of any of them, and while Barbie is not a look I can get my head around, I wonder if all the b*tchy comments regarding their looks are not just the polar opposite of women being judged not "pretty enough" (see Wimbledon champ) in other circumstances. My daughter says that anyone choosing to appear as some kind of sex toy deserves not to be taken seriously. Is this not just the usual prejudice in reverse?

Well obviously 50% of us don't JessM or is there something I don't know?
If the business plans were vetted at the beginning we'd miss the biggest joy of the interviews. I only watch them to see the inflated ideas shredded by Claude the enforcer! grin
I was only thinking about Ruth Badger a couple of days ago and wondering what she's doing now. She was about the best of the lot - and probably not much interested in cosmetic surgery.
