Never Too Thin

NEVER TOO THIN is an overview of contemporary Americas obsession with a slender body. No female seems exempt from societal pressure or self scrutiny. From the average woman-on-the-street who wants to lose weight to the beautiful model who wants more slender hips and thighs, women evaluate themselves and are being judged according to their body size and shape. With computer imaging, NEVER TOO THIN looks at the female body throughout history as standards became increasingly thinner. A plastic surgeon tells us ...Marilyn Monroe today would be coming in for a liposuction. Today's American male is conditioned to see only one body type as desirable -one which is unachievable for the average woman. Combining self-revelation and pointed humor, NEVER TOO THIN shows the debilitating toll this obsession exacts; how it undermines our health, self-esteem and reason. Solutions offered derive from the wisdom of women who have moved beyond the preoccupation with weight to the serenity and sanity of self-acceptance.
