Is any cover of Vanity Fair without enhancement?

The question is whether Jenner got anything beyond the usual blemish and wrinkle removal and skin tone adjustment etc.

Unless they did something specifically to make her look more female, it's legit.


FWIW, I have seen a photo of one of my great grandmothers taken around 1904 (shortly after they came to America). She's no stunner, but appears to have perfect skin. I have been told there were smallpox scars edited out.

Caitlyn Jenner is an oppressor because she looks what is alleged to be good.

Oh, and one person not on the "You Go Girl!" bandwagon: her ex-wife:

http://time.com/3904673/caitlyn-jenner-kris-bruce/
In an interview with Vanity Fair, Kris maintains that their relationship ended abruptly when her former husband “just decided, ‘I’m done.’ ”

Knowing what she knows now, Kris tells the magazine the way Caitlyn approached their separation and subsequent divorce felt like “the most passive-aggressive thing I think I’ve ever experienced.”

So what is Whitey to do? If you if you adhere to traditional European beauty standards, that's cis/Eurocentric (ungood), but if you "appropriate" African-American beauty standards, that's Cultural Appropriation (doubleplusungood).

Any woman who tries to appear attractive to heterosexual white men is a traitor, amiright?

The first thing that must be understood is that this shit is coming from a faction of the white ruling class via university elite white folks. This is ruling class orthodoxy (for a particular faction).

Divide and conquer. White people not of their social class are enemy number one.

So they yap about white privilege without giving up a shred of their class privilege.

Mark Steyn checks in:

http://www.steynonline.com/6988/deathbe ... iscentrism
...

So ObamaCare ought to cover Vanity Fair-level industrial-strength airbrushing by mandating not just gender reassignment but totally smokin' gender reassignment. But wait a minute, isn't referring to "less advantaged trans ppl" buying into the cis/Eurocentric white-privilege narrative of denying transpeople the right to transition into dumpy unattractive women?

Won't someone please do something newsworthy to get this crap out of the headlines?

Ed, can you maybe launch a crocodile from a cannon into Katy Perry's back yard?

Rob, can you maybe sneak into the white house and wap Obama upside the head with your dong during a press conference?

AC, can you.......maybe just go about a typical day.......except wear a head cam and put it on youtube?

Come on. Anythings got to be better than what's in the headlines now.
Such potential!

No.

She's definitely someone who bristles at anything that implies a woman's worth is in her looks, though.

Mark Steyn again.

http://www.steynonline.com/6991/birth-of-the-new
... At a certain basic level, Professor McCloskey understands that she is not a woman, but she chooses to live as one. She's talking the way Angela Morley talked - about wanting to "present as a woman" and carry on doing what you love, whether teaching history or conducting orchestras. But Caitlyn Jenner is instead "presenting" as a transwoman, and blazing a new trail in self-definition. Why she's doing it is obvious: she's got a reality-TV series, and she wants it to open big, and have people stick with her as she explores various options for her new sexuality with whatever genitalia she decides to go for. She is, in that sense, transitioning from a Jenner to a full-blown Kardashian. ...
Emphasis added.

Bitchy bitchy bitchy. :mrgreen:

In other news, Lance Armstrong has compared himself to Voldemort. In a whiny sort of way.
