Eh, you guys are being a bit harsh on boobs. It was a classically melodramatic rant, and he sort of shoots himself in the foot when he feels the need to pile shit on 'whores', but he also hits on plenty of points. And all the personal jibes are kind of petty...

There is an unreasonable beauty standard held in place for women, and the bile that gets thrown at women who don't live up to it can be pretty remarkable at times. And a lot of women let this sort of bullshit really mess with them and their self esteem. Sure they have a choice not to, but when you're conditioned with this stuff from birth it's not so easy. It doesn't make me lose faith in humanity, but it's worth recognising the ways in which modern society is kind of shitty.

Plus, I will be a pedant and point out that anti-semitism refers specifically to jews, regardless of the other races that speak semitic languages.

Wow, melodramatic thread for a relatively small issue. Honestly, you're complaining about a very small issue. Yes, if you read Cosmo and TMZ, watch People on television and consider Hollywood films an accurate mirror of society, well then you're rant is completely justified.

However, out in the real world, the rest of us have other stuff to worry about. I don't know a SINGLE woman who feels pressure from magazines and internet forums to be thin and gorgeous; mostly because we all grew out of that when we were teenagers and realized that there were more important things to focus our energy on. And if any grown woman actually DOES let her self-image be defined by airbrushed magazine photos and bored internet personalities, then they're pathetic. It becomes a problem when these losers pro-create and pass their self-obsessed petty insecurities onto their children and convince them this crap actually matters; but even then they should be able to snap out of it after a few years out on their own in the real world.

I'd recommend you spend your time compiling a rant about issues that ACTUALLY matter to society. I'm sure you could find many other alternatives.
