Excellent question.
Although, I would point out that Keira (Knightly?—I don’t know famous people) looks ripped to shit, as opposed to just starving.
Both are problematic as beauty ideals. I’m not comfortable with any particular body type being the dominant image that women are expected to achieve in order to be considered attractive and valuable. There’s more to this than “curvy vs skinny,” and pitting them against each other only demonstrates how fucked up everyone is about women’s bodies.
