According to my handy dictionary (yes, I am a loser), vanity is excessive pride in yourself; conceit.

So therefore, unless you spend an age on your appearance, you are not vain. I'm not quite sure where materialism comes in either :-/
Essentially it's natural to want to make yourself look better... you want to find yourself a good mate etc.

Nothing wrong with it at all; unless you start going too far with things like multiple plastic surgery operations, face lifts etc. :redface:

It's sad but everything is based around sex these days, the media is the culprit. Take a womens magazine for example every page is packed full of wonderful products and items which will transform your life and make you so happy! Or maybe you're being exploited for £1.60 every fortnight.

And children
I keep on seeing 10 year old girls reading 'Sugar'
I'm sorry but magazines like that are just a load of shit
It described 'He Knew He Was Right' as "posh boys in lush clothes'
What about age restrictions on magazines?
Or a general guide?
I'm sure we have to draw the line when you see seven year old girls in denim mini skirts and leather boots (and that's just to church)
