“Women persecute themselves with a desire to retain adolescent figures. ‘Nearly everyone I know’, says Saville, ‘is obsessed with dieting-from
anorectics who end up in hospital to friends who take hundreds of
laxatives a day. It’s like an epidemic. Some companies write the
provision of body management into employee’s contracts; you can have
liposuction so as to conform to company image. Plastic surgeons use
computers to create the perfect face, but it will achieve such
blandness. What would beauty be, if everyone were the same?”
