Bones and just bones in Australian Miss Universe competition
Written by Black Entertainment USA
When I saw the photo I just had to speak. My first thought was
“Wow, that’s what Olive Oyl would look like in person.”
That is Australian Miss Universe hopeful Stephanie Naumoska. If you look at her photo and think that she should have been competing for the poster-child for anorexia, I would agree. To say she is just bones would be only a modest exaggeration.
Naumoska is 5’ 11” and weighs just 108 pounds. There is no compliment or beauty in those numbers. The fact that she was allowed to even try-out for the pageant amazes me. Officials should have taken the woman to a hospital, or McDonald’s for emergency Big Mac’s.
I just don’t get it. Where is the beauty in having a figure only Olive Oyl might compare with? I suppose that somewhere in the world there exists someone who finds pipe cleaners sexual, but beyond that fetish is the reality that Naumoska looks horrendous. Because she is too thin.
There is no exaggeration when I say I have pre-teen nephews that weigh more than she does. I think I’ve owned dogs with more weight. I certainly would find such a woman repulsive to go out with. But isn’t there anyone in Australia with the guts and concern to say these things to this woman?
I pray that none of my readers every looks in a mirror or at this image and sees this kind of emaciation as a sign of anything but desperate need of food. Beauty cannot be found in a pair of jeans, and it certainly can’t be found with unhealthy diets.
Perhaps the worst thing about this situation is that there are some in the pageants and other industries that support and defend this kind of torture and slow death. One such foolish defender of anorexia, in my opinion, is pageant director Deborah Miller who said
“Naumoska, …had Macedonian heritage, which accounted for her extreme thinness.”
What the hell does that mean? I’ve never heard of such a thing. In fact neither had nutritionist Susie Burrell who went on record with the Herald Sun disputing the assertion. As far as I am aware a Macedonian is Greek. And Greek women are healthy, which Naumoska is not.
Suffice to say this woman failed in her bid to become Miss Australia. The only real question is how she got past the door for the competition in the first place.
Real curves kick butt
Written by Michael Vass
While I think the woman in the video is a bit too big, the point is clear. Real women rule. Stick figures don’t work even in animation.
By the way APRES not only means after, as in the after image, but it also can mean bitter and harsh. Keeping that in mind the full meaning of the video really takes form.
Megan Fox must eat cake!
Written by Michael Vass
Megan Fox (no relation to Michael as far as I know) is a stick. She has a couple of curves, but overall a stick if you ask me. Seriously there are 14-year olds that have more of a body. If you don’t believe me ask director Michael Bay.
It seems that Bay feels women should have curves and look like a person as opposed to the near-anorexic looks usually found in actresses these days. In fact he is making Megan Fox GAIN 10 lbs. for her next film Transformers 2.
Megan Fox makes it sound like it’s a hard thing to do
Well here is another beauty secret for Ms. Fox; eat a couple of Big Macs or Whoppers if you prefer. 10 lbs is nothing, but having more than bones and skin is always a plus when it comes to the warped ideals in Hollywood. I mean if not she can always look like this instead [The left photo she at least looks ok and definitely looks like a human female. The right looks like a praying mantis. Sexy huh?]
{By they way – ever notice that the least talented and most neurotic of celebrities and entertainers are the thinnest? A correlation perhaps?]
Net net, I give congratulations to Fox for meeting up with food, and a Thank You! to Michael Bay for not filling a movie with matchsticks in place of women. Now if he could just get the writer’s to take something to help with the scripts.
Anorexia and Hi Glam dolls - revisiting a thought
Written by Michael Vass
Sometimes you can’t win for trying. While I am often passionate about my views, I am honest enough to admit my ignorance on some subjects. But having a view that is not popular on a topical issue can often lead to unique response from the internet.
Let’s look at my comments on the anorexic looking Hi-Glam dolls.
Now I do know a few throughout the internet agreed with my assessment. But when you are in a pool so big, sometimes you run into those that have a different view. And since I keep an eye out for where my posts are mentioned I do notice.
Thus I ran into these responses from girls (or women I have no idea) that love the dolls and dislike my thoughts.
Now the poor spelling aside I find this interesting. My concern is the effect that these dolls are having on the young girls they are marketed to. It’s the same concern that has enveloped the high fashion modeling industry. It’s why Italy, England and Spain have all placed bans or made comments on the weight of models in their country.
But the above comments seem unable to understand my comments. Which I thought were obvious. Yet one wants to resort to violence over speaking honestly about the dolls, and another seems almost envious of their death-like looks.
Now I will bypass the fact that anime is a well respected art form loved by tens of millions. But the comment “article was gay” says a lot about the writer. I may be too old to know the latest slang that is out, but what is that supposed to mean? Obviously it’s an insult, but I generally enjoy a bit more in my insults. Perhaps a bit of depth and points of correction or disagreement.
But I digress.
Barbie is far from perfect, but her proportions were changed because she was so unrealistic. To be unable to accept the shape of a Barbie doll today as positive versus the Hi-Glam is to say that Marylyn Monroe was less sexy and attractive than Mary Kate Olsen or Jack Skellington.
Since it seems some did not understand my point before I will be blunt, direct and simple. I’ve lived across a good part of the globe, seen women of every race and ethnicity. I know guys in every country I’ve lived in, and between the thousands of people I have known in my life, not one has ever found an anorexic woman attractive. There is simply nothing to like or admire about someone that is scarcely more than a skeleton. It’s not appealing to anyone, it’s ugly in the most sick manner.
So I don’t know anything about dolls. But I do understand that anything that suggests a girl or woman should weigh as much as a softball and look like a corpse is unhealthy and wrong. It’s America and others don’t have to agree, but I will make my thoughts known.
If only one girl or woman decides to eat a hamburger and let it stay in her stomach then I’m pleased I wrote these posts. And if anyone disagrees they can go to hell.
Mr. Idiot Creates Miss Bimbo
Brits are outraged over the efforts of a 23 year old French man in which young girls can compete against each other on a website to lose weight, choose plastic surgery procedures and make other decisions which are usually made by girls much older than the 9 and 12 year olds that regularly visit the site.
One man told us, “This is the type of website that calls for censorship of the Internet so that a person can’t warp the minds of children simply for financial gain.”
We agree.
The site is MissBimbo.com. and some are accusing the site of glorifying extreme weight loss which borders on anorexic symptoms.
The final goal of the game is to catch the eye of a millionaire to get married. Good things to teach a 9 year old. How about education, respect and nutrition to name a few…?
