To what degree should the image be manipulated to go into a fashion magazine?
I believe that it is okay for models and celebrity's to have things such as blemishes, spots and wrinkles photo shopped away, however I do not believe they should be made to look thinner and body parts should not be changed as their image could be seen by certain people who want to look like that when it's not really possible, this in the past has lead many people especially females to have eating disorders such as bulimia and anorexia.
