I've just submitted The Breast Chronicles to the Guardian's "Best British Blog" competition, and one of the judges is Body Shop founder
Anita Roddick. I had a look at her blog and particularly enjoyed reading her opinions on
beauty culture, saying of the beauty industry: "it is a male-dominated industry built on creating needs that don't exist, but because it seems to have decided that it needs to make women unhappy about their appearances". This, of course, is especially true of the plastic surgery industry, who fuel and encourage insecurity about one's physical appearance. After all, without these fears and feelings of inferiority, they wouldn't exist.
