Tag Archives: photoshop vs. plastic surgery

This parody video drives home the point that Photoshop is a big reason women are preoccupied with perfection with lines like:

You don’t have to rely on a healthy body image or self respect anymore.

Even models experience the pressure of perfection. Cindy Crawford was quoted in saying, “I wish I looked like Cindy Crawford.”

When I read Bossypants by Tina Fey earlier this year, Fey talks about her experiences on photo shoots and even mentions the best Photoshop work that has ever had done, for the cover of Bust magazine (pictured below). And one thing she said stood out to me. When discussing Photoshop from a moral standpoint, she says this: it isn’t worse than getting plastic surgery.

I’d take Photoshop over plastic surgery any day. Thoughts?
