Was continent where, According To Robyn Orlin, very little is Said about the body, Despite The trials and tribulations Many Undergo it must, it is essential to bring it out of the private sphere and place it front of course. The body presents an Often violent platform for debate on standards of beauty and ugliness, perfection and imperfection. As soon as violence surfaces, the body is devalued, Regarded as "simply Reviews another body."
