Let me guess, you have a great personality!

I was watching television this morning and I came across an ad for a made for tv movie here is a synopsis:
    Boy meets girl, girl does not like him because he is in the friend zone, boy enlists the help of his other girl-friend to make him over, which includes adding hair gel, taking his glasses off and making him dress the same way he did before but different, with a splash of color, Then aforementioned girl falls in love with boy, but boy is in love with his longtime friend…
.
We have all seen this movie, Right? But what does it accomplish? Let's take a look:

The actors in these movies are just that, actors. They are abnormally good looking. Just putting glasses on someone who looks like David Beckham, will not make him any less attractive, this may even make him more attractive. Proving that someone will only love you if you look perfect or if not, you have to make yourself over to "please" the other person who you are trying to impress. What usually happens in these "makeover shows" is they usually take some average women dressed like she is doing yard work, with no make-up on. Cut, and color her hair, slap hooker make-up on her, and dress her like she is going out to eat at an expensive restaurant. I hate how they take a beautiful, wonderful, and unique individual and change them into the exact same person they changed the last person in to.

These shows/ movie are a disgusting reminder of how shallow and morally bankrupt this country is becoming. instead of trying to better our entire self, be it physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually speaking, we look to television programming for guidance, as it was some kind of blessed, god- blueprint to live our lives by. Please Calvin Klein, Mtv programming execs, and the marketing people at maxim/cosmo/us/people/etc how I should look, dress, talk, and act! Please tell me how to spend my time and money; help me live a more commercially complete life. America needs to turn off the tv and pick up some god books. You want to impress people without all the BS, put the women back into the same outfit she was wearing before you did your stupid make-over. Or just once, take her out of the fancy outfit, and slap her in some farmer jeans and a tank top.

I hate it even more when the make-over a man. They usually pick some guy who looks like a long haired country hick with a scraggly beard, give him a decent haircut, and shave his facial hair, and, usually highlight his hair, and trim the unibrow. Then stick him in a suit and tie, or something that he will more than likely not ever wear again. When I watch them I think that it's very pathetic and to look at the inside of people. But this is probably the reverse reaction that they intended and receive when they made these shows.


Well, on the flip side if you're at home and feeling ugly it might give you a weird sense of hope thinking that if someone else that feels poorly about themselves can change why can't they?The plastic surgery is rather extreme and just supports all the wrong ideas but the offering of correct eating habits, exercise and the tools in which to present self are all important things many people were never taught.

It is rather ironic to see members of a fitness board rag on the concept of beauty and perfection - no mater what.
