Lisa Fary's earliest influences are Princess Leia, Rainbow Bright, Astronaut Barbie, and her 6th grade teacher, Ms. Palmer. She's angry that it's 2011 and she still doesn't have a hovercraft, but will accept a jetpack as consolation. That jetpack had better be pink with a rhinestone monogram. 2 Comments

I think it’s great. I mean, if you follow feminist issues, photoshopping women is nothing new, but I like that the disgust of photoshopping women is spreading far and wide. When you still have people like Demi Moore claiming that her ‘shopped body is her real body, stuff like this is needed.
Those photoshoppers should be worried, though. The tide is turning against them because they’re just going too far (did you hear the story of that co. that photoshopped the models head’s on a totally digital body?). I heard there’s a law proposed in Congress that would require those ads/magazine to have a warning that the body isn’t real, kind of like what you see on a smoker’s ad. Those warnings killed cigarette advertising (I very rarely seem them these days). The sad part is that those companies are playing so fast and loose with women’s bodies that the only way to effing regulate them is to have the government intervene and put a warning on it. HAVE A LITTLE RESPECT FOR WOMEN, YOU GUYS.
“And it’s funny to me (funny like “this sausage smells funny”, not funny like Community). Funny that there’s outrage over imposing our current standards of beauty on classic art, but not over imposing them on real women who exist in our real world.
What I’m getting is that classic art matters. Real women don’t.”
Ya got that right! Spot-on!
