Nowadays, when the same question is being asked, the majority of little girls say they want to be a celebrity like Paris Hilton.
It says it all to be honest.

Have to agree - I find that really sad!
I think girls, from an early age, should be encourgaged to aim for wider career choices than just teachers and nurses - ie there should be more women engineers, scientists etc - but to just aspire to be complete waste of spaces like Paris Hilton is beyond comprehension. The value system of this country has so gone downhill in that respect. Mind you, despite the survey - I think most girls in higher education have more sense!
