Describing the above-mentioned photoshop skills as "unethical and deceptive" seems a pointed overstatement in a world where airbrushing images of both women and men to achieve cultural ideas of "beauty" has become routine. That the photoshopped image was expressly created to adhere to modesty laws is understandable and perfectly acceptable given the magazines's target audience. What is unacceptable is the overt hostility voiced in this article towards the haredi community that is supported by vitriolic reference to derogatory statements made about Jewpiter's intent in another publication. Despite an confession about "know[ing] nothing about" Jewpiter, the comments appear here without having been first objectively researched to provide an accurate and informed statement. The sweeping generalizations made here about eating disorders in the orthodox community - you mean here in the good old USA where 1/3 of the population is obese? - and your lack of basic reporting skills make this article unworthy to publish in a blog that is devoted to showcasing Jewish women and documenting their contributions and achievements.
