					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve always found the whole trend more than a little bit strange. The whole process of spreading one&#039;s legs in front of an unknown person and letting him/her poke down there and pour hot wax and pull out hair always struck me as weird, unnecessary, painful and more than a bit embarrassing. Even if one goes the DIY route, the ingrown hairs, itchiness and all that is just ridiculous.

Boyfriends and husbands never demanded the removal of every hair. It&#039;s always women, and a burgeoning beauty industry, who come up with torturous ways of making women look more &#039;beautiful&#039;. Men are biologically wired to like women the way nature created them.

A little grooming and caring is nice. A Barbie-doll image is not. Daphne had once written about one of her teenage-year friends. She used to do sport, have a shower, go out and get all the attention from the boys Most men like that sort of fresh, lively, womanly image. It oozes sex appeal 

It&#039;s a pity most Maltese women look like they have just come off a factory line: tortured, dyed hair, caked faces, breast implants and a general cheap prostitute look about them. It&#039;s enough to send any reasonable man running for the hills.]]></description>

Why is The Times discussing this item now?  I believe that this website discussed this topic ages ago.

I still can&#039;t believe this part:

&quot;Asked to explain what he meant by his declaration that the project relied on Labour’s victory and to state whether Gasol, through its Maltese representatives, had already discussed the details of the project with the party before the election, Mr Buxton said: “It is not appropriate to reply at this stage in the process.”
 
He said he would reply once the process was concluded.&quot;

Is it true that they did not deny vehemently that they had already discussed the details of the project with the Labour party before the general elections?]]></description>
