Supermodels aren't responsible for your insecurities. No one is. If your ego feels a sting looking at a beautiful woman or someone who you believe has it better than you, that means there is a part of your ego (and this journalist seems to have a BIG one) that needs working on. Wrapping our egos in cotton wool is what s 'problematic' here. There is always going to be someone better off than you and worse off than you. Same with looks. Some women are universally beautiful. So what? Life goes on. You can't have everything in life. I think we're so caught up in coddling our egos that we've forgotten humility and reality. Bitterness and mockery isn't a good look, on any woman.
