Bodies

In China, women are having their legs broken and extended by 5cms. In Iran, behind the Hijab there are 35,000 cosmetic nose reconstructions a year. In Brazil breasts and bottoms are reshaped along with the face so that women there can reflect western norms of beauty. This book states that our body becomes the measure of our worth.
