Whether its bathing suits or night gowns a quiet rebellion is underway in female fashion. For years women have been subjected to the "anorexic" or "heroin" look, but women are beginning to assert their own foothold within the fashion industry. "I think society has just reached its limit of how thin we need to be," asserts Tamara, a popular model. "We need to emphasize that is both beautiful and healthy to be little on 'the large size'." Clothing shops do in fact offer a wide range of option that are both stylish and fashionable. With women experiencing a rejuvenation, trendy clothes are getting a boost in sales. Although some commentators have laughed off current fashions as little more than fads, but all indications are that some trends are here to stay.
One of the sure indications that our Western society is admist an implosion is when it’s women rather than work out to look good, go for an easy route and resurrect an age old method in looking good.
Shapewear is the trend of the season: the stale, often harmful girdle that grandmother lived with that sported menacing names like "Waist Eliminator" or "Tummy Terminator" has seem to make a come back as a fashion tool.
U.S women have bought over 50 million shaping briefs, bodysuits and petticoats this year. Japanese scramble the "Good Girdle Up" from her fingers, and in the French girls are panty tights from Yves Saint-Laurent a hit. These figures have made many companies into huge successes overnight.
Playtex from Germany has been pleased about their "insane success" of registering their “Secret” Panties for a 40 percent increase in sales annually for the past two years.
History seems to be repeating itself. That does not bode well in a world where look has become central to women’s self esteem. Society is essentially saying that is far better to mask one’s true self than doing the hard work it takes to improve. This is of course nothing against the shaper as I believe it is an amazing use of garments to change a look, yet society has to be careful about the emphasis on it's use.
Men who show signs of baldness before age 30 may have less chance of developing prostate cancer, according to a study at the School of Medicine, University of Washington in the United States, and published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology.
Between the 2 thousand men that were studied, cancer incidence was 45% lower.
The researchers studied 2 thousand men between 40 and 47 years of age and noted an apparent link between high levels of the male hormone testosterone - as men who become bald early - and a lower risk of having the disease.
Half of the men who participated in the study suffered from prostate cancer. The researchers compared the incidence of tumors among those who said they had begun to lose hair before age 30 and those who reported having experienced falls.
Those who began to be bald by the 30 had a risk between 29% and 45% lower risk of prostate cancer.
The researchers believe that between 25% and 30% of men show signs of baldness by the age of 30. Half the men have suffered significant hair loss up to 50 years of age.
Baldness occurs when hair follicles are exposed to a very large amount of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) - a substance produced by testosterone.
Experts believe that men with higher levels of testosterone are more likely to lose hair, especially if there are cases of baldness in the family.
It's common for patients with prostate cancer do therapy to reduce testosterone levels because the hormone can accelerate the growth of some tumors, as they appear.
But this study suggests that high levels of testosterone at a young age may actually protect against the disease.
"Clearly, the age at which a man begins to lose hair is unfortunately (indicator) a risk factor for prostate cancer on which we have no control," said Helen Rippon, head of the administration's research Foundation The Prostate Cancer. "If the results (of research) are correct, they may be useful to increase our understanding of how testosterone behaves in the human body and how it can affect different tissues."
Alison Ross, Research Foundation Cancer Research UK, said the link between prostate cancer and baldness is still unknown, because previous studies showed an exactly opposite result to this.
"The results (of the new American study) are based on asking men aged between 40 and 70 years if they remember it started to get bald at age 30, does not mean a highly reliable," she said.
