btw in that article dogsbody put up in another thread it also sed
"As attractive as Japanese women are there has long been a feeling that Western women were more beautiful. A character in a story published in 1908 by the famous Japanese novelist Soseki Natsume said that the women depicted in ukiyo-e woodcut prints “have disappointing narrow eyes compared with the clear-eyed women depicted in Western paintings...There are no Japanese woman in earth comparable to Madonna of Raffello Sanzio! Should there in fact be such a beauty she would never be considered Japanese.”
and
"These days in Japan, shampoo ads for Proctor & Gambles and Unilever feature glamorous Western blonds while those for the Japanese shampoo Tsubaki feature famous Japanese women and the slogan “Japanese women are beautiful.”
forgive me for reading such things and coming to the conclusion that maybe the west does have a big influence in asia - becoz thats the kind of stuff ive seen in the past aswell

Even in the "western world" I dont think you would have to look at many magzines to find an airbrushed, breast augmented "EE", size zero singer/actor who by the way probabley cant sing/act.
But i doubt you would consider this is what "western" women aspire too (at least I hope not).
My point being anyone anywere can point at somone and say I wouldnt mind ...........(finish as appropiate)
and lets not be fooled into thinking its a female thing only as I know plenty of guys who would like to be taller/broader.6 pack etc etc.
Human nature I guess.
