I watched Gok Wan's "How To Look Good Naked" tonight, thinking it might be a joke at first. But how I was wrong. This show was utterly captivating. Gok took a woman who was so ashamed of her body that she hadn't been naked with her husband for years, and as a result they were set for a divorce. He took this woman, and completely transformed her. With bold, yet feasible steps, he built up the woman's confidence, making her appreciate her body by looking at it and having people admire it. Then with delicate artistry, he transformed the presentation of her body. His craftwork on her body was spectacular. He understood her shape, and applied style rules to accentuate her beauty. By the end, she looked like a model, and she was fit for the catwalk. Her marriage was saved completely, ensuring the happiness of her son, as well as herself and her husband.
The course of action taken by Gok was amazingly effective: he used pure creativity to rise far above the swarms of TV programmes about dieting and body fascism that still pester us. Gok Wan is an absolute genius.
