jersey shore article

This is a really interesting post from the site Jezebel about the messages in "Jersey Shore" about body image. Seriously. Here's a quote:

"...it's oddly refreshing how much artifice itself is celebrated, with everyone participating mightily, and openly, in becoming the ideal Guido. No one is just born one, or supposed to make it look effortless. There are communal visits to tanning salons and unblinking references to fake breasts, and everyone takes hours to get ready."
