Terry Prone: Average-looking women must work twice as hard to be successful

The fifties model of the acceptable woman was limited and limiting. But probably not as limited and limiting as the current decade
Terry Prone: Average-looking women must work twice as hard to be successful

Kim Kardashian on Wednesday shared photos and video of what appeared to be a backyard graduation ceremony.

Two photographs. One showing the woman holding a legal certificate. The other showing her with a red circle superimposed on her hairline as if made by a Sharpie. The first establishing that she has passed America’s Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination and can move forward to becoming a lawyer like her father was. The second suggesting, without comment from her, that she’s had cosmetic surgery which has left her looking younger. 

You can figure that the more popular picture is not the one of Kim Kardashian celebrating her completion of the apprenticeship programme which gives her a legal qualification even though she did not graduate from college. No. It’s the one with the red circle. The exciting possibility of her having “had work done” outweighs mastering the law. Kardashian has never been famous for achieving stuff, enthusiastic and proud as she may be over getting through this programme, which is rare among American states, even if it took her two years longer than planned.
