OP here! Au contraire, anon, this is exactly the sort of thing I'd been hoping for. (I have been just dying to see Alfred/any of his stars/models/pinup girls, especially after having seen this: http://www.metmuseum.org/special/se_event.asp?OccurrenceId=%7BEB2C67EF-1CCB-4EB2-9329-A955A7EDFBC2%7D.) The cult of beauty is so inherently a part of the American DreamTM, and this fandom provides such a fascinating angle to examine stuff like this from. I'm not sure if that's what you'd meant to go for, but if it was, you totally nailed it. Heeeeeeee. Not to mention, it's absolutely lovely, style-wise, too.
SAFE TO SAY. I see no fail here. Thanks, writer!anon! ♥ My day just got so, so much better!

It was kind of what I was going for. XD; The whole obsession with beauty and with sexuality, and this strange obsession we have, which isn't as present in other countries.
I don't think I did it very well, but. XD; Thanks.
Just make it full of retro goodness and national self-lovin'.
