You've Come A Long Way, Baby (NOT!)

The Media's Betrayal of Modern Woman

by Roland Kriewaldt

If movie trailers and tv commercials reflect modern culture, then a women of power must have, as a bare minimum, the following:

  • a gun
  • a pretty face — big, pouty bee sting lips preferred
  • a round little ass
  • firm, perky boobs, even if they're plastic replicas
  • a flat, smooth belly (perpetually exposed, of course)
  • long, attractive hair — preferrably blonde
  • a romantic interest in some man who turns her into mush — (this is to comfort male viewers threatened by her independence)
  • intelligence — but not too much or she'll be typecast as a geeky smart girl in a lab coat and glasses who must transform into the girl defined above and find a man before she can be happy. [roll credits]
