Can 'Barbie Drug' Make You Thinner, Tanner, Sexier?

A new drug that started out as a tanning aid is suddenly being compared to Viagra. But the drug isn't just for men.

I think it is sad that this drug is catching on before it is even available. I honestly want to cry. Drugs that make you tan, thin, sex driven. Why cant we be happy with ourselves? Why cant we want what we have? Why cant we love ourselves more than wanting to change into something "perfect". Perfect isnt thin or tan, perfect is being comfortable with yourself. Lets try a little self respect.
