Sick Computer Game Pushes Cosmetic Surgery
27 03 08 - 04:58 Miss Bimbo, described by its creators as a fashion game, has attracted prepubescent children as young as 9. It invites children to create a virtual doll, monitor its diet and weight and buy it breast implants and facelifts.-----
Chris Evans, the British businessman helping to introduce Miss Bimbo to Britain, insisted that the game could be completed without using the premium rate number to buy extra “dollars”. He said the designers had decided to remove virtual diet pills from the game following the public outcry about the message it sent to girls.

It is interesting to note that while the idea of genetically engineering people to be beautiful, healthy and intelligent is considered unacceptable, girls are targetted to become so neurotic they wish to use expensive and dangerous surgery to achieve the media-driven ideal of attractiveness.
