3. There is a strong connection between
what we call “body image
disturbance” and the ideal body
image that the advertising companies
are trying to sell - Juan Meng author
of “ Is beauty a pill?
Our bodies are constantly being
reinvented by the “visual culture that
we receive through television,
magazines, newspapers, digital media
and advertising – Susie Obrach Author
of “Losing Bodies”
6. Real or Fake?
Most photos showed in magazines and ads are
photo-shopped and airbrushed.
7. Am I a Barbie girl?
Barbie is and example of
an unrealistic woman who's
proportions are far from the
average woman yet many young
girls see this as a standard they
must reach to be “beautiful”.
10. What we should all learn
from this :
The media should not dictate what
we should look like. We all have
the right to feel comfortable and
beautiful in our own skin.
