This is really quite fantastic. There's a kind of beauty is only skin deep reference here. Or inference?

I can't really isolate the bottom line, unfortunately. There is definitely a very strong feeling deep inside of me that I know is related to my experiences as a male (sex) being immersed in a culture where the media emphasizes females as sex objects in idealistic depictions. and being a male who is heterosexual and who has lots of testosterone, but who is also an avid thinker on the subject of gender roles in society, i can share that i am at war with the idea of "media beauty" and the way it has shaped our ascribed gender roles. but my artistic aggression also comes from my human animal desires, and how i have been disillusioned by my inability to fit into to this media-icon driven culture, and to find a feline that doesn't scratch.

and although that sounds like complete bullshit, i tell you it ain't.
