Without Breasts There Is No Paradise
Seriously. That's apparently the name of a new show on NBC this fall.
From the article:
The series is about a 17-year-old call girl who worries that her flat chest will consign her to a life of poverty.
...
I have to admit, that when I first heard about Ugly Betty, I wasn't too excited. I haven't actually watched any of it, but it appears that my fears were unfounded and it is a surprisingly positive show.
From what I've read about the original Columbian version, there is no way to put a positive spin on this. 17 years old, a prostitute for drug traffickers, AND obsessed with getting breast implants. Oh, and according to the Wikipedia article, she actually gets the implants, becomes "disillusioned" and then kills herself.
What a message to young people everywhere.
