The Definition of Beauty

I watched a program on Astro the other day, which showed African mothers forcing their daughters to eat and become fat, because being fat is beautiful and shows that the family is affluent. Some of these daughters, being force fed, even died, and the husbands think nothing of this practice.

I don't remember what tribe these Africans are from but I find it a bit strange that while the rest of the world are going to Africa to get their hands on hoodia that is a great ingredient to keep women slim, they want to be fat even though hoodia is just at their door step.

This is the same as people in the West wanting to be tan while people in the East, who are mostly tanned naturally, wanting to be fairer! Hahaha!
