Professor Miliann Kang, from University of Massachusetts - Amherst, is conducting a survey on body image among Asian American women for her course, "Asian American Women".

As part of a trio that made a film on this, I've witnessed a great need for more dialogue on Asian American body image. Given the current surge of plastic surgery, beauty in the media, and food fads, it's no wonder that so many female (Asians and) Asian Americans get so obsessed over image and subsequently develop full-fledged disorders.
