Who is Ben Barry?
Q: What does Judge Business School, PhD & a Modelling Agency have in common?
A: Ben Barry
This man, a PhD student at Judge Business School who owns a modelling agency, has received the Canadian Governor General's Awards in Commemoration of the Persons Case Youth Award by making "the most positive impact of anyone I have encountered on women and their self image. Ben is instrumental in affecting a change of societal values of women through both his modelling agency and his research at Judge Business School."

What do you think of the above?
I wonder if it would have been the same outcome if a female PhD student, who owns a modelling agency, had written the same stuff.

Interesting question you ask BlinkyMummy. I would be more keen to know how the current ideals of women beauty can be so appealling to female consumers, who time and time again prove the fashion industry right by responding positivelly to their deluded campaigns.
Ooh baby! I think this is very cool!
Though I do also wonder what difference Ben's gender makes in all of this. But hey, at least he's doing good things for women. Can't argue with that!
