As prom season went on, I realized that there is a problem with our society. If women have an hourglass shape or a thin body, they are ranked high on the perfect body image scale. The media manipulates women by establishing an unattainable standard of beauty and body perfection. This manipulation has led women to dissatisfaction with their bodies. The media's influence on body image has set an unattainable standard of beauty and body perfection. Images of women in magazines and on television influenced a woman's sense of body satisfaction. This has created an unhealthy obsession with images of beauty and the idea of ​​perfection in our society. The media controlling magazines and television have caused social pressures that mentally push women to maintain the image that belongs to their ethnicity and culture. This has created a trend, indoctrinating women from childhood and adolescence which later brainwashes them into maintaining a specific body image which causes negative effects in adulthood. WHAT IS BODY IMAGE Body image is a subjective image of one's physical appearance established both by self-observation and by noticing the reactions of others. Individuals treat the body as a language. “It is a sign, a text to be read and interpreted. Big breasts talk about fertility. The long neck is elegant. Full lips are sexy. Fat is lazy. A big nose is embarrassing. The diaper is unhappy. Bald women are not feminine." (Edut, Walker 1998, p.xiii) The importance of achieving the ideal image is about power. Ophira Edut (1998, p.xx) discusses that “body image goes far beyond weight and goes deeper than skin color.” She states, “Our bodies have become arenas for feelings we don't face, for unresolved trauma and injustice.” It's......middle of paper......and constantly telling oneself. Women need to maintain their strengths and find their beauty so they can thrive. Tyra Bank explains that during her time as a model, looking at other models made her depressed. She says "my body could never be like another model unless I choose unhealthy means that are not worth it" (TV show) Thanks to the success of my solution to this problem, women will no longer be victims of the flu negative media on body image imposed. As a result, the empowerment of the redefined meaning of beauty will now allow women to begin to truly recognize themselves. They will begin to focus on the part of them that is most beautiful and invisible to their eyes. They will learn how to eliminate the negative influence of the media and teach younger generations of women that character and integrity are the determining source
