And yes, we also fundamentally disagree on the second part. Just because scrutiny exists, doesn't make it right or even give you right to vocalize it. It's human nature to pass judgement, but it's also about being a good human being. It's not just about whether a woman is attractive to you or not, the problem is with your perceived right to list some physical issues that woman has. These aren't your thoughts in a bubble, this is a message board. How do you think your comments make the women who read them feel? If someone throws up a model that wears a size 10 and someone says "Too big" how the hell do you think that's going to make the women who read that comment and wear a bigger size feel? I have a "type", I think some women are attractive and I find others unattractive, but I don't arbitrarily address the physical issues of women I find unattractive as though they're an object which I have any right to pass judgement on.
Models do not take photographs for you to talk about what you think is wrong with their body. They too are human beings. They are not just a body, or a face, or boobs, or a butt. They are a fully functioning human being that should be spoken of like one would speak of any other fully functioning human being.
Just answer me this: If you wouldn't say it to someone's face, why in the world would you say it at all?

I'm not sure why you're hung up on the lack of make-up part. Like it or not that's part of the production process used to produce a quality, attractive photograph. Without the production involved in producing such a picture, these celebrities don't look like the goddesses that many people idolize. And yes the make-up is part of their image.
No I wouldn't say that to any of their faces. In the same way none of us would tell Shane O'Brian that he's a crappy hockey player or (pick your least favorite singer) is a terrible singer or your coworker is a terrible engineer/accountant/project manager/whatever. That's how society works.
