Women (still) have a complex and contradictory relationship with their own image according to a poll released on Tuesday that found 25 (percent) of those questioned would rather win the "America's Next Top Model" TV show (than) the Nobel Peace Prize.
And although 75 percent of women (surveyed) said they'd be willing to shave their heads to save the life of a stranger, more than a quarter of those taking part admitted they (would) make their best friend fat for life, if it meant they could be thin.
As for that age-old dilemma of (whether) to marry for wealth or looks, half of the 18- to 24-year-olds questioned said they would marry an (ugly) man if he were a multimillionaire.
The poll for U.S. television network Oxygen, which is targeted (at) young women, also found that 88 percent of 18- to 34-year-old women would happily give up their (cell) phone, jewelry and makeup to keep a friendship.
"This survey proves an interesting dissection of today's woman and how she (relates) her personal image with what she values in her life," said Dr. Jenn Berman, psychotherapist and judge of the upcoming new Oxygen (series) "Pretty Wicked."
"As shown in several results, women today are a (complex) combination of altruistic and materialistic, vain and insecure, loyal and self-serving. This survey highlights the dichotomy in all of us," Berman said.
More than 2,000 women aged 18-34 (were) interviewed for the poll.
