In addition to the other arguments (Elle is a fashion magazine, focused on style and suchlike) -- why is it so undermining to talk about how people look? As someone who sees a lot of overweight, sloppily dressed people (occasionally with poor personal hygiene) in our industry, I find it good to know that someone is well-dressed and of normal weight. I find it a positive characteristic, indicative of discipline and attention to detail. I have seen articles about Jack Dorsey and Steve Jobs that paid attention to their personal style, and I often like those parts of the articles. Unless the article is purely technical in nature ("Tate's parametrisation of p-adic Curves" or suchlike), could you explain why is it so important to you that that this information be deemed "undermining", and be suppressed?
