Some Facts

I'm going to give you a couple of facts here and let you do what you want with them.

1.) The upper-age limit on applications for new models with all the major agencies is 21 for women and 30 for men.

2.) Kate Moss is constantly derided in the press both for being 36 and for having a few lines on her forehead and around her eyes, which are airbrushed out in all her photos. The new advert for Calvin Klein's Eternity for Men shows a very handsome male model, in his mid thirties, with deep and visible lines on his forehead and around his eyes.

Is the industry sexist? Is the industry just a microcosm of the world in general? Do I like Morrissey?
