Another female contradiction

My philosophy teacher actually brought up an interesting point.

Seeing as the women shown in magazines, adds and other such commercial things don't look like natural women, it is her opinion that women therefore believe that to be a successful woman, you can't look like one. It is often said that models have a hard time having children sometimes, because of their shape. Also, it is known that some of these models were born with both sexes and have bodies shaped in that fashion.

My teacher also added that this whole look came out of the feminist movement. It's an interesting thing to say, because if feminists were fighting for women rights, they sure as hell weren't fighting for women's looks.
