How Does Media Affect Body Image
Body image is how a person feels about their physical appearance. Someone with a negative body image has a distorted view of his or her body and
often feels shame, anxiety and are more likely to suffer from low self–esteem and depression. People with a poor body image have a greater chance of
developing an eating disorder. Which then can lead to drastic changes of their bodies using dangerous methods such as plastic surgeries and severe
eating disorders in order to meet societal ideals. Today people feel that present ideals are pressuring them to conform, in any way possible to get the
ideal body, these pressures cause body dissatisfaction and self–esteem issues.The media is causing body image issues due to the lack of diversity and
realistic body representation, when exposed to western media young people are more likely to have eating disorders, participate in fad diets, or
drastically change their bodies with plastic surgeries. The "ideal" woman's body type has taken many forms, but these fads show that ideals change
with the eras. These ideals are directly influenced by society, art and media. When trends changed it typically was replaced by thinner body shapes
causing the introduction of methods of weight controls. Before Photoshop, women in the late 1800s used to corset their bodies to get the ideal shape,
which then was fuller figured but a ridiculously tight corseted waists. During this time, another female body image was the "Gibson girl" – a soft,
supple, dainty female with a frame defined by a corset. The Gibson girl... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

The Roaring Twenties : An Age Of Dramatic Social,...
The "Roaring Twenties" was an age of dramatic social, political, and economic change. Women wanted improved and fair rights and the nation's
wealth doubled between 1920 and 1929. Culture, values, and the technology of America changed and it had only just begun. The "Roaring
Twenties" were considered as a "celebration of youth". The many experiences that came from WWI had transitioned into the growth of new
industries, cities, and new morals. Women finally gained the right to vote in 1920, and there were many new opportunities for them in the
workplace. Many of the social changes greatly impacted the new world. Later on birth control came into play which eventually led to a decline of
the birth rate. Technology advancing made everything easier for people to do everything. People had never seen such technology rapidly growing
throughout the world, especially the women and flappers. The Flapper was the new ideal woman. She dressed differently and she acted completely
different than the other average valued woman. The humans of this time were greedy for a new change to appear advanced and accompany for
happiness, instead of time period before. The United States was turning from a time of war to a time of peace. They started with their economy.
Americans spent their money on roads, tourism, and real estate. New technology began to be on acceleration such as cars, refrigerators, telephones,

Dunlap‟s leadership. After calling a meeting with the board, Dunlap addressed the situation by accusing financier Ronald Perelman of engaging

New Era Of The United States
Throughout history, the United States has often been described as a melting pot, meaning "the fusion of various religious sects, nationalities, and
ethnic groups into one distinct people" (Thornton). This metaphor first arose in the eighteenth century, but was used in the late nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries to describe the growing number of immigrants in the United States. From 1900 to 1915, "more than 15 million people" immigrated to
the United States, ushering in a new era of Americans (Library of Congress). Furthermore, there was a shift in the countries from which immigrants
were arriving. These changes characterized the first half of the twentieth century, as immigrants struggled to assimilate to American culture.
Immigration during this period profoundly affected American culture, including the fashion industry. In addition to this effect, the influx of immigrants
helped to usher in a new era of urbanization and manufacturing in the United States.
Immigration has always been a common phenomenon in the United States. Throughout the nineteenth century, immigrants from Northern and Western
Europe arrived in fairly significant numbers. After the 1880s, however, there was an influx of immigrants from Southern and Eastern Europe. As was
the case before, most of these immigrants were "escaping religious, racial, and political persecution" or seeking greater economic opportunity
("Immigration in the Early 1900s"). Since most immigrants were fairly poor, they entered

Universal Beauty Ideals in Women's Magazines
Hollywood has changed the way the world perceives beauty. White beauty has clearly sought precedence over beauty of other races, namely Asians,
and is considered being a mainstream beauty standard. Mainstream bioethics in the United States originates from a white Anglo–Saxon protestant
worldview, which serves silently to perpetuate white dominance (Arekapudi and Wynia, 2003). It has strongly influenced how Asians want to look
these days, and Asian women show preferences for beauty standards outside of the Asian ingroup, especially for white women (Evans and McConnell,
2003). Hollywood culture consists of good–looking, physically attractive people. Physically attractive individuals are often viewed more favourably

(E.g.: Tyra Banks, Naomi Campbell, Tomiko and Alex Wek.) African Americans were told that their key to success was through assimilation of
hairstyle and dress, so many of them Universal Beauty Ideals 5 began to "follow the latest fashions in Vogue and Mademoiselle, to rouge her cheeks
furiously, and to speak, not infrequently, of what a disappointment the black man has been." (Wallace, 1979) This assimilation shows the great extent to
which Euro American Beauty Standards have influenced the other races, causing them to change their perceptions of beauty. Further, the traditional
beauty standard of plumpness of East Asia has shifted toward the Western ideal of thinness (Lee & Rudd, 1999). Instead of having predominantly
non–White female models in Asian magazines, White female models are as common as non–White models, or even more. Korean magazines seem to
portray and promote Western feminine women to achieve the Western ideal. (Kim & J. Lennon, 2006). Local magazines also carry more White models
than not, hence, "Asian women are then exposed to the same Euro American beauty ideal pressuring them to achieve the thin ideal." (Kim & J.
Lennon, 2006). According to a research done, the Korean magazines carry more than half White models then Non–white models. For example, WS

Analysis Of Gibson Girl
The Gibson Girl was a series of sketches drawn by a famous artist. The name of this artist was Charles Dana Gibson. The Gibson Girls were a sketch
that changed the outlook on women during the 1900s. The Gibson Girl was created to show the rosiest aspect of society. This meaning that Gibson
wanted to show the way he approved of society, a time in which a woman's name would only show up three times in a paper. These times concluded of
when she was born, when she got married, and when she died. Gibson however hated the thought of women being bought for marriage especially to an
old guy, he wanted these things to happen naturally.The idea of Gibson didn't just stick with women either, there is a Gibson man as well. Although

This however raises a conundrum because not all women of the time were models either. Therefore the new woman of arising in the americas were a
lot more independent ant had a lot more freedom so they became , "athletic and free–spirited" (Blakemore). This in return shows the difference in the
way the woman looked compared to one another. The women could wear their hair down and do with it as they pleased, while the Gibson Girls
would wear it up high in a big hairdo. Not every woman was gorgeous either unlike the description of the Gibson Girl. The reason the Gibson Girl
was so gorgeous was so that men would be more attracted to them. This is one of the reasons the Gibson Girl was criticized which is also shown
here," for creating an unrealistic ideal of what women should look like: perfect proportions and long flowing hair " (Chopin ). Therefore as you can
see the Gibson Girl's look was completely inaccurate compared to the women of the time.
Another way the Gibson Girl differentiated from the women of the time was through the way they acted.Gibson went so far as to create a woman that
acted like a completely different woman, so that men wouldn't see women for what they were turning into. The men were seeing Gibsons idea. The
Gibson Girl was described as, " not politically informed, and her social conscience, in present–day terms, was dormant. She could not cook or manage a

Gibson Girl Research Paper
Introduction:
As a young woman in the twenty–first century of America, I have been afforded numerous opportunities which have allowed me to freely express
myself and explore the various avenues of life with little to no limitations, and in doing this, I have become inspired and intrigued with the infamous
Roaring Twenties. Its characteristics included all of the things considered taboo in most countries including intoxication, bacchanal behavior, and, my
all–time favorite, the changing and freeing aspect of a woman in the decade of the 1920s. Women in this era morphed their societal roles, attire, and
independence and, as a result, are seen as a hero and a nuisance to society to this day.

The Gibson girl was just the same as Barbie. The Gibson girl on the other hand was the set role model in the early 1900s. The Gibson Girl and
Barbie presented other women the image of a woman who was independently strong. The two were criticized for portraying unrealistic displays of
what a woman should be. An example of this woman was athletic and active but still maintained femininity and the perfect look of her face and
hair's original state. Unlike Barbie who was created by a woman by the name of Ruth Handler, the Gibson Girl was created by a man by the name
of Charles Dana Gibson. While the Barbie doll could change and adapt to the societal roles and changes of women, the Gibson Girl was drawn up
in ink and paper and did not morph into any other idealistic view other than that of the late 1800s and very early 1900s. The transition of the
Victorian woman to the Gibson Girl was the result of a more social influence rather a political influence. Charles Dana Gibson, the creator of the
original sketch of the Gibson girl, was a depiction of what a liberated and ideal woman would be like. The Gibson girl was not purposely meant to
be publicized. In fact, it was discovered by Life, a very popular magazine. Before the Gibson girl was drawn, the Industrial Revolution was bustling,
and this created more jobs, and the middle class women were indirectly given the option to work which of course they took. (Lower class women
were already working to make ends meet.) The middle class women tried to find ways and fashions to balance their femininity and activeness. Life

Gibson Girl Research Paper
Since the rise of mass media in America throughout the 20th century, the idea of feminine beauty has changed significantly, especially women's body
shape. American visual media has always been guilty of promoting the current "ideal" women's body shape, despite these body shapes being virtually
impossible for the average American woman to achieve. By analyzing the way that the "ideal" women's body shape in America has changed, it
becomes clear how the media has always kept a tight grasp on the American woman's individuality.
Between 1900 and 1910, popular culture made way for the "Gibson Girl," who was created by the iconic artist Charles Dana Gibson. The "Gibson
Girl" depicted ideal feminine beauty as tall and thin, with an exaggerated bust and wide hips; a look only achievable with a corset. This look put
pressure on women to alter their bodies by corseting. By the 1920s, the media had rejected the previous "societal norms" of corsets and large breasts,

The problem with the media pushing the fad of an "ideal" women's body shape is that there is only ever room for one look at a time. With an
ever–changing culture heavily influenced by the media, it is hard to live up to the looks that are constantly presented in visual media. This leads to the
body–shaming that American culture inflicts on those who dare to leer away from what is the current look. This is also the reason why American
women go to great lengths to alter their bodies. One of the biggest issues that comes from this vicious cycle is how our kids are influenced by this.
Toys like Barbie Dolls already send a complicated message to our kids about femininity, but when the Sports Illustrated magazine's Swimsuit edition

To be caught in the wrong fashion at the wrong time of the day was as greatly to be feared as addressing a member of society by the wrong title. At
this time, large swept up hairstyles with loose curls and fake hair were popular. The cosmetic beauty ideal was still the same pale, delicate, glowing
skin that was seen in the Victorian era. Contrary to our ideals today, gray hair was considered very attractive because it made women appear "softer
and younger. The main body focus of this time was the bosom as well as the childbearing hips, but still without any cleavage showing. The 19th
century was an era of rapid development and change during this period England changed from an agricultural country to a city an industrialised one.
This involved massive displacement and drastically altered the nature of society. It took many years for both the government and the people to adjust

The Gibsonson Girls : My Favorite Art Of The Gibson Girls

when given this particular assignment I decided that whatever I was going to research was going to be about history. Another thing about me, is that I
love the arts, whether it's paintings,music, or writing I love it all. Which is why it wasn't much of a surprise that when I stumbled upon the beautiful
ink drawings of the glamourous Gibson Girls that I was caught. The Gibson Girls spanned across the late 1900's and early 2000's. However, what's
most interesting about them is that they're named after the illustrated Charles Dana Gibson. His drawings known as the Gibson Girls appeared in many
of the popular magazines at the time (eyewitnesstohistory). The Gibson Girls were known for their big effortless bouffant hairstyles as well as their
big chest, tiny waist, and big hip silhouette (Edwardian Fashion – The Gibson Girl). However, they weren't just known for their beauty. Charles drew
them doing many things; playing the violin, keeping fit riding a bike, enjoying the outdoors, sketching, being part of a jury, and more (The Gibson
Girl's America: Drawings by Charles Dana Gibson The Gibson Girl as the "New Woman"). To him the Gibson Girl's weren't just about beauty, although

The 'ideal body' or appearance in South Korea is having milky white skin, a small face, big eyes, small nose, and a slender body. Some of the body
shapes can labeled by the alphabet, as many Koreans do, called "alphabetisation" (Waldman). They use letters to describe body types, for example, the
most ideal body type is the S–line which is having a tiny waist, a large bosom and bottom. What many people don't realize is that these ideals are
extreme and unnatural because not everyone is born with these body qualities. As a result, Ashley Perez, a culture writer, having spent a year
teaching English in Daegu, South Korea returned shortly after experiencing discrimination (Murray). She was often referred to as "too tall, too fat,
and too dark" because she lacked the usual appearance of Korean women (par. 2). Even students called her "plain face" and "tired teacher" due to the

Beauty : The Definition Of Beauty And Beauty Standards
Beauty Standards
Beauty standards have been a major issue for many years now and women have been willing to change their bodies over and over to please
themselves and others. Beauty standards are often defined in terms of hairstyles, skin color, and body size. The measures involved in having to live
up to these standards are often risky in nature. For decades, what is seen as beautiful is centered around a women's weight and size. Today, that
standard is often defined as being thin. Women often resort to drastic means to attain that ideal image. However, achieving these standards can be
expensive, can lower self–esteem and can be a threat to a woman's health and life.
There are many beauty standards but weight and body size is slowly becoming the main focus. These standards give a false sense of hope of
having the "perfect body." Instead of letting beauty standards be socially accepted, people should be aware of the harm they cause. Celebrities are
role models to various people around the world and they are criticized for their appearance. Many of these celebrities go out and get plastic surgery,
Botox injections, and Silicone implants. People that a lot of money and higher status are more likely to be able to live up to these standards. Some
women are willing to sacrifice comfort and tolerate the pain to achieve them.

The Representation Of Beauty In The 1920's
Beauty is hard to define and is said to be in the eye of the beholder, but desire for women to be beautiful and stay beautiful is a goal in our culture
today. Though our society and loved ones emphasize that beauty lies within one's character, our society also contradicts this idea because they tend to
focus on physical appearance more. Beauty perception has evolved from embracing natural qualities in earlier decades to promoting superficiality in
today's society due to cultural changes such as the discovery of new beauty products and procedures and depictions made through mass and social
media. The evolution of beauty from previous decades is drastic. Tracing back to the 1900's up until the 1940's, ideal beauty involved natural qualities...

Women are attempting to meet the beauty expectations that society has set; therefore, women result to products and supplements to enhance their
beauty. Products and procedures that promote the considerably flawed depiction of beauty include: powerful cosmetics, weight loss technologies, and
plastic surgery. From the 2000's up until today, technologies in all areas of daily life have been introduced and enhanced the way of living. First,
makeup is almost perceived as a necessity for women. Specifically, makeup has been formulated to transform your physical appearance entirely. Today,
women have resulted to a makeup process called contouring–a process that involves using shading and highlighting to bring out facial structures.
Makeup allows women to transform their face to the way they want it. Next, weight loss technologies have been introduced to the beauty industry.
These provide an alternative to spending time in the gym or dieting. Products such as weight loss wraps, diet pills, breast enhancers, and other
supplements are said to give women the body they desire. Weight loss procedures such as lipo–suction result in automatic fat loss. Lastly, the most
drastic procedure to transform beauty is plastic surgery. This form of surgery can be performed almost on any body part. Surgeons can manipulate

Propaganda is biased or misleading information used to promote a political point of view.
Adolph Hitler commented that "[o]nly constant repetition will finally succeed in imprinting an idea on the memory of the crowd." (Adolf Hitler)
Propaganda has had a large and important role since the 19th century. However, World War One (1914

was one of the largest weapons used in the war and students should study how it affected their lives with the benefit of a retrospective analysis.

America Is A Melting Pot
America is a melting pot made up of people from many different races and ethnic backgrounds, so why are the American news broadcasters
predominantly white men in their late forties? News represents the American society so therefore American broadcasters should reflect society as a
whole. In addition, many people consider news anchors role models and it is important to see themselves represented and trust their news source. The
lack of diversity among newscasters impacts the audience's reception of the news. People are more likely to trust news sources that they relate to and
identify with. Many people do not even notice the lack of diversity or understand the impact it has on society. There needs to be more of an effort to

technologies or photography because of the emotional atmosphere, transfer of mood of the work of art and detailed visualization of images. The term
"illustration" itself has a several meanings, but the most known is 'art design'. In the past, illustration due to its characteristics been only associated with
books and magazines as a support for a text. However, as the time passed illustration became an individual type of art that no longer need to play a
supporting role for anything. This evolution leads illustration forward to the division of a broader term into narrower subtopics, which introduced the
creation of fashion illustration. From that point, it was clear that fashion illustration is one of the oldest and most important movements in the history
of illustration. Through the time, it has always had a touch with graphic design and fine arts, it has an undeniable influence on fashion and vice versa.
Right now, it is possible to recognize another story of fashion by them because they reflect an individual and not a group view on it, unlike in

In the Triangle: The Fire That Started America written by David Von Drehle, one significant topic is women and their fight for change. The novel
takes place during the era of industrialization; so, to maintain the rise of large businesses and large scale production woman joined the workforce. In
the novel women take roles in working, striking, and progressing. Overall, women were objectified to the discrimination due to gender stereotypes;
however, they fought for their rights and equality regardless of the consequences in hopes of a brighter future for the generations to come.
One way women battled the discrimination was by asserting their working rights. During the industrialization era "managers deskilled production,"
therefore "the ranks of factory workers [included] more and more women" who were paid low wages (Henretta, 553). However, women faced criticism
of men who argued that they belong at home. Despite the opposition,"woman vigorously defended their right to work"(Henretta, 553). They also
participated in the strikes to gain "higher wages and shorter hours" for their long, hard work (Drehle, 86). In general the importance of women working

The question of whether women should have the right to vote was one that was very commonly debated, but rejected. However, as women "began to
earn advanced degrees, work for wages and salaries, and live independently" it became "harder to argue that women were "dependents" who did not
need to vote"(Henretta,588). Furthermore, in Drehle's novel, Alva Belmont heard about the outrageous treatment of the shirtwaist strikers and believed
that "such things would not happen if women had the vote" so she concluded that "her cause and theirs must be united"(Drehle, 67). Overall, uniting
these two causes was important because it kept the strike alive and put more attention on both of important

The beginnings and ends of what we choose to call centuries are almost invariably years of little significance. But there is little agreement over when
the twentieth century c.e. arrived, and there were several points both before the year 2000 (the collapse of the Soviet Union, the reunification of
Germany, the surge of globalization from the mid–1990s) and afterward (9/11, or the global recession of 2008) when one could quite plausibly argue
that a new era had begun. A compelling case can be made for viewing the decades of the global scramble for colonies after 1870 as a predictable
culmination of the long nineteenth century, which was ushered in by the industrial and political revolutions of the late 1700s. But at the same time,
without serious attention to the processes and misguided policies that led to decades of agrarian and industrial depression from the late 1860s to the
1890s, as well as the social tensions and political rivalries that generated and were in turn fed by imperialist expansionism, one cannot begin to
comprehend the causes and consequences of the Great War that began in 1914. That conflict determined the contours of the twentieth century in
myriad ways. On the one hand, the war set in motion transformative processes that were clearly major departures from those that defined the
nineteenth–century world order. On the other, it perversely unleashed forces

quarterback David Sills has been taking reps with the wide receivers but he is not quite ready to give up on being a starting quarterback down the
road. "He is still working on quarterback stuff, so he is not focusing on receiver," Holgorsen said. "He is not getting better at receiver. He will play
receiver. He is not Deion Sanders, where he kind of just goes in there and does some things. He is a young kid with a lot of eligibility left. Until he
focuses on a specific thing, he is not going to be great at it. He is focusing on quarterback, but you will see him get in there, because we have no
depth at receiver right now. He needs to help us out. He is a team player, and we appreciate that." With the spring winding down, the defense is not

push to be curvy came as Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly were huge influences. Everyone wanted an hourglass figure and being skinny was not in
fashion. There were lots of ads about how to gain weight. Then in the 1960's the media became interested in Twiggy, the skinny, boyish looking model.

Comparing The Stereotypes Of The Gibson Girl
United States is the creator of many of the beauty stereotypes that are active until now such as Barbie doll, Disney's princess and others. The first

status of the perfect American women in that time. Gibson girls had portrayed the "new woman" a women who was educated, taking advantage from the
access that women obtained to have secondary and college education; a woman who had more independence.
The Gibson girl was illustrated like a Caucasian woman, tall and slim with a body in "S" shape helped by the corset. The facial features were big

Today, girl bands exist, but there are still few. Girl pool is an all girl electric guitar and bass duo which formed in LA in 2013. Cleo Tucker and
Harmony Tividad started the band when they were teenagers, and have created two full length albums since they started. On their first album,
"Girlpool", "Jane" is song about female empowerment. It is a story about a girl named Jane who stood up for herself by shoving "her fist in Tommy's
mouth," because "usually [he] did the talking." The song uses Jane and Tommy as symbolic for any relationship, or any moment, where the girl feels
silenced as they state:
Girls and boys if you are listen
Don't ever feel imprisoned
Feeling like your mouth is glued tight shut
You were born for a reason
Share all your feelings

One should always speak for herself, and never feel as if she cannot. Expressing a similar message, the song "Cherry picking" off of the album
"Before the World Was Big," is about 'picking cherries.' Cherry picking refers picking the best, and according to the song it is "dreams." By choosing
her dreams over her significant other, she finds herself alone–"When I'm cherry pickin / I always know you're gonna leave." By following her dreams,

order to achieve their goal. In other words, the obsession can sometimes lead them right into an eating disorder. However, solutions to these illnesses do
exist. A–The first disorder is the refusal of food and the second consists of throwing up after eating. In both cases, these disorders have one objective
that accompanies them: to be thin. 1–People with anorexia nervosa have a tendency to look in the mirror and see their body as overweight and ugly
even when in reality they are dangerously thin. A sufferer of anorexia nervosa can be underweight, emaciated with protruding bones or a sunken
appearance. They can experience fatigue, dizziness or even fainting. The nails become brittle, the hair can fall out, and women can even experience
loss of menstruation or irregularities in their menstrual cycle (Timberline, 2005). 2–People with bulimia nervosa will often eat excessive amounts of

How Does Media Affect Body Image

  • 1. How Does Media Affect Body Image Body image is how a person feels about their physical appearance. Someone with a negative body image has a distorted view of his or her body and often feels shame, anxiety and are more likely to suffer from low self–esteem and depression. People with a poor body image have a greater chance of developing an eating disorder. Which then can lead to drastic changes of their bodies using dangerous methods such as plastic surgeries and severe eating disorders in order to meet societal ideals. Today people feel that present ideals are pressuring them to conform, in any way possible to get the ideal body, these pressures cause body dissatisfaction and self–esteem issues.The media is causing body image issues due to the lack of diversity and realistic body representation, when exposed to western media young people are more likely to have eating disorders, participate in fad diets, or drastically change their bodies with plastic surgeries. The "ideal" woman's body type has taken many forms, but these fads show that ideals change with the eras. These ideals are directly influenced by society, art and media. When trends changed it typically was replaced by thinner body shapes causing the introduction of methods of weight controls. Before Photoshop, women in the late 1800s used to corset their bodies to get the ideal shape, which then was fuller figured but a ridiculously tight corseted waists. During this time, another female body image was the "Gibson girl" – a soft, supple, dainty female with a frame defined by a corset. The Gibson girl... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

  • 5. The Roaring Twenties : An Age Of Dramatic Social,... The "Roaring Twenties" was an age of dramatic social, political, and economic change. Women wanted improved and fair rights and the nation's wealth doubled between 1920 and 1929. Culture, values, and the technology of America changed and it had only just begun. The "Roaring Twenties" were considered as a "celebration of youth". The many experiences that came from WWI had transitioned into the growth of new industries, cities, and new morals. Women finally gained the right to vote in 1920, and there were many new opportunities for them in the workplace. Many of the social changes greatly impacted the new world. Later on birth control came into play which eventually led to a decline of the birth rate. Technology advancing made everything easier for people to do everything. People had never seen such technology rapidly growing throughout the world, especially the women and flappers. The Flapper was the new ideal woman. She dressed differently and she acted completely different than the other average valued woman. The humans of this time were greedy for a new change to appear advanced and accompany for happiness, instead of time period before. The United States was turning from a time of war to a time of peace. They started with their economy. Americans spent their money on roads, tourism, and real estate.

The media became involved and questioned Al Dunlap‟s leadership. After calling a meeting with the board, Dunlap addressed the situation by accusing financier Ronald Perelman of engaging in a media conspiracy to drive the price of Sunbeam stock down so that Mr. Perelman could buy a larger proportion of Sunbeam shares at a lower price. Roger Schipke Roger Schipke, spent 29 years working in the appliance division at General Electric with his last 8 years serving as vice–president of the division.

However, Schipke was recruited to Sunbeam by Charles Thayer, a board member of Sunbeam who also served as the interim CEO after Kazarian‟s departure. Thayer had worked with Schipke in the past and realized that his GE background provided him with the industry expertise necessary to move Sunbeam forward.

  • 7. New Era Of The United States Throughout history, the United States has often been described as a melting pot, meaning "the fusion of various religious sects, nationalities, and ethnic groups into one distinct people" (Thornton). This metaphor first arose in the eighteenth century, but was used in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to describe the growing number of immigrants in the United States. From 1900 to 1915, "more than 15 million people" immigrated to the United States, ushering in a new era of Americans (Library of Congress). Furthermore, there was a shift in the countries from which immigrants were arriving. These changes characterized the first half of the twentieth century, as immigrants struggled to assimilate to American culture. Immigration during this period profoundly affected American culture, including the fashion industry. In addition to this effect, the influx of immigrants helped to usher in a new era of urbanization and manufacturing in the United States. Immigration has always been a common phenomenon in the United States. Throughout the nineteenth century, immigrants from Northern and Western Europe arrived in fairly significant numbers. After the 1880s, however, there was an influx of immigrants from Southern and Eastern Europe. As was the case before, most of these immigrants were "escaping religious, racial, and political persecution" or seeking greater economic opportunity ("Immigration in the Early 1900s"). Since most immigrants were fairly poor, they entered ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 8. Universal Beauty Ideals in Women's Magazines Hollywood has changed the way the world perceives beauty. White beauty has clearly sought precedence over beauty of other races, namely Asians, and is considered being a mainstream beauty standard. Mainstream bioethics in the United States originates from a white Anglo–Saxon protestant worldview, which serves silently to perpetuate white dominance (Arekapudi and Wynia, 2003). It has strongly influenced how Asians want to look these days, and Asian women show preferences for beauty standards outside of the Asian ingroup, especially for white women (Evans and McConnell, 2003). Hollywood culture consists of good–looking, physically attractive people. Physically attractive individuals are often viewed more favourably than unattractive...

(Wallace, 1979) This assimilation shows the great extent to which Euro American Beauty Standards have influenced the other races, causing them to change their perceptions of beauty. Further, the traditional beauty standard of plumpness of East Asia has shifted toward the Western ideal of thinness (Lee & Rudd, 1999). Instead of having predominantly non–White female models in Asian magazines, White female models are as common as non–White models, or even more. Korean magazines seem to portray and promote Western feminine women to achieve the Western ideal. (Kim & J. Lennon, 2006). Local magazines also carry more White models than not, hence, "Asian women are then exposed to the same Euro American beauty ideal pressuring them to achieve the thin ideal." (Kim & J. Lennon, 2006). According to a research done, the Korean magazines carry more than half White models then Non–white models. For example, WS magazine has 53% White models and 47% Non–white models. (Kim & J.

  • 9. Analysis Of Gibson Girl The Gibson Girl was a series of sketches drawn by a famous artist. The name of this artist was Charles Dana Gibson. The Gibson Girls were a sketch that changed the outlook on women during the 1900s. The Gibson Girl was created to show the rosiest aspect of society. This meaning that Gibson wanted to show the way he approved of society, a time in which a woman's name would only show up three times in a paper. These times concluded of when she was born, when she got married, and when she died. Gibson however hated the thought of women being bought for marriage especially to an old guy, he wanted these things to happen naturally.The idea of Gibson didn't just stick with women either, there is a Gibson man as well.

Therefore the new woman of arising in the americas were a lot more independent ant had a lot more freedom so they became , "athletic and free–spirited" (Blakemore). This in return shows the difference in the way the woman looked compared to one another. The women could wear their hair down and do with it as they pleased, while the Gibson Girls would wear it up high in a big hairdo. Not every woman was gorgeous either unlike the description of the Gibson Girl. The reason the Gibson Girl was so gorgeous was so that men would be more attracted to them. This is one of the reasons the Gibson Girl was criticized which is also shown here," for creating an unrealistic ideal of what women should look like: perfect proportions and long flowing hair " (Chopin ). Therefore as you can see the Gibson Girl's look was completely inaccurate compared to the women of the time. Another way the Gibson Girl differentiated from the women of the time was through the way they acted.Gibson went so far as to create a woman that acted like a completely different woman, so that men wouldn't see women for what they were turning into. The men were seeing Gibsons idea. The Gibson Girl was described as, " not politically informed, and her social conscience, in present–day terms, was dormant. She could not cook or manage a home".

Gibson Girl Research Paper Introduction: As a young woman in the twenty–first century of America, I have been afforded numerous opportunities which have allowed me to freely express myself and explore the various avenues of life with little to no limitations, and in doing this, I have become inspired and intrigued with the infamous Roaring Twenties. Its characteristics included all of the things considered taboo in most countries including intoxication, bacchanal behavior, and, my all–time favorite, the changing and freeing aspect of a woman in the decade of the 1920s. Women in this era morphed their societal roles, attire, and independence and, as a result, are seen as a hero and a nuisance to society to this day. Victorian Era During the Victorian Era, which endured... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The Gibson girl was just the same as Barbie. The Gibson girl on the other hand was the set role model in the early 1900s. The Gibson Girl and Barbie presented other women the image of a woman who was independently strong. The two were criticized for portraying unrealistic displays of what a woman should be. An example of this woman was athletic and active but still maintained femininity and the perfect look of her face and hair's original state. Unlike Barbie who was created by a woman by the name of Ruth Handler, the Gibson Girl was created by a man by the name of Charles Dana Gibson. While the Barbie doll could change and adapt to the societal roles and changes of women, the Gibson Girl was drawn up in ink and paper and did not morph into any other idealistic view other than that of the late 1800s and very early 1900s. The transition of the Victorian woman to the Gibson Girl was the result of a more social influence rather a political influence. Charles Dana Gibson, the creator of the original sketch of the Gibson girl, was a depiction of what a liberated and ideal woman would be like. The Gibson girl was not purposely meant to be publicized. In fact, it was discovered by Life, a very popular magazine. Before the Gibson girl was drawn, the Industrial Revolution was bustling, and this created more jobs, and the middle class women were indirectly given the option to work which of course they took. (Lower class women were already working to make ends meet.) The middle class women tried to find ways and fashions to balance their femininity and activeness.

  • 11. Gibson Girl Research Paper Since the rise of mass media in America throughout the 20th century, the idea of feminine beauty has changed significantly, especially women's body shape. American visual media has always been guilty of promoting the current "ideal" women's body shape, despite these body shapes being virtually impossible for the average American woman to achieve. By analyzing the way that the "ideal" women's body shape in America has changed, it becomes clear how the media has always kept a tight grasp on the American woman's individuality. Between 1900 and 1910, popular culture made way for the "Gibson Girl," who was created by the iconic artist Charles Dana Gibson. The "Gibson Girl" depicted ideal feminine beauty as tall and thin, with an exaggerated bust and wide hips; a look only achievable with a corset. This look put pressure on women to alter their bodies by corseting. By the 1920s, the media had rejected the previous "societal norms" of corsets and large breasts, and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The problem with the media pushing the fad of an "ideal" women's body shape is that there is only ever room for one look at a time. With an ever–changing culture heavily influenced by the media, it is hard to live up to the looks that are constantly presented in visual media. This leads to the body–shaming that American culture inflicts on those who dare to leer away from what is the current look. This is also the reason why American women go to great lengths to alter their bodies. One of the biggest issues that comes from this vicious cycle is how our kids are influenced by this. Toys like Barbie Dolls already send a complicated message to our kids about femininity, but when the Sports Illustrated magazine's Swimsuit edition partnered with Barbie's maker, Mattel, to feature Barbie in a bikini spread, the world got a blurred message of what the doll really stood ...

To be caught in the wrong fashion at the wrong time of the day was as greatly to be feared as addressing a member of society by the wrong title. At this time, large swept up hairstyles with loose curls and fake hair were popular. The cosmetic beauty ideal was still the same pale, delicate, glowing skin that was seen in the Victorian era. Contrary to our ideals today, gray hair was considered very attractive because it made women appear "softer and younger. The main body focus of this time was the bosom as well as the childbearing hips, but still without any cleavage showing. The 19th century was an era of rapid development and change during this period England changed from an agricultural country to a city an industrialised one. This involved massive displacement and drastically altered the nature of society. It took many years for both the government and the people to adjust to the new conditions.

Watching movies from the seventies even to the eighteenth hundreds are some of my favorite things.

Another thing about me, is that I love the arts, whether it's paintings,music, or writing I love it all. Which is why it wasn't much of a surprise that when I stumbled upon the beautiful ink drawings of the glamourous Gibson Girls that I was caught. The Gibson Girls spanned across the late 1900's and early 2000's. However, what's most interesting about them is that they're named after the illustrated Charles Dana Gibson. His drawings known as the Gibson Girls appeared in many of the popular magazines at the time (eyewitnesstohistory). The Gibson Girls were known for their big effortless bouffant hairstyles as well as their big chest, tiny waist, and big hip silhouette (Edwardian Fashion – The Gibson Girl). However, they weren't just known for their beauty. Charles drew them doing many things; playing the violin, keeping fit riding a bike, enjoying the outdoors, sketching, being part of a jury, and more (The Gibson Girl's America: Drawings by Charles Dana Gibson The Gibson Girl as the "New Woman"). To him the Gibson Girl's weren't just about beauty, although they were effortlessly beautiful. They were also talents, smart, and active in their society.

Some of the body shapes can labeled by the alphabet, as many Koreans do, called "alphabetisation" (Waldman). They use letters to describe body types, for example, the most ideal body type is the S–line which is having a tiny waist, a large bosom and bottom. What many people don't realize is that these ideals are extreme and unnatural because not everyone is born with these body qualities. As a result, Ashley Perez, a culture writer, having spent a year teaching English in Daegu, South Korea returned shortly after experiencing discrimination (Murray). She was often referred to as "too tall, too fat, and too dark" because she lacked the usual appearance of Korean women (par. 2). Even students called her "plain face" and "tired teacher" due to the fact that she didn't wear any make–up (par. 4).

  • 15. Beauty : The Definition Of Beauty And Beauty Standards Beauty Standards Beauty standards have been a major issue for many years now and women have been willing to change their bodies over and over to please themselves and others. Beauty standards are often defined in terms of hairstyles, skin color, and body size. The measures involved in having to live up to these standards are often risky in nature. For decades, what is seen as beautiful is centered around a women's weight and size. Today, that standard is often defined as being thin. Women often resort to drastic means to attain that ideal image. However, achieving these standards can be expensive, can lower self–esteem and can be a threat to a woman's health and life. There are many beauty standards but weight and body size is slowly becoming the main focus. These standards give a false sense of hope of having the "perfect body." Instead of letting beauty standards be socially accepted, people should be aware of the harm they cause. Celebrities are role models to various people around the world and they are criticized for their appearance. Many of these celebrities go out and get plastic surgery, Botox injections, and Silicone implants. People that a lot of money and higher status are more likely to be able to live up to these standards. Some women are willing to sacrifice comfort and tolerate the pain to achieve them.

The Representation Of Beauty In The 1920's Beauty is hard to define and is said to be in the eye of the beholder, but desire for women to be beautiful and stay beautiful is a goal in our culture today.

Specifically, makeup has been formulated to transform your physical appearance entirely. Today, women have resulted to a makeup process called contouring–a process that involves using shading and highlighting to bring out facial structures. Makeup allows women to transform their face to the way they want it. Next, weight loss technologies have been introduced to the beauty industry. These provide an alternative to spending time in the gym or dieting. Products such as weight loss wraps, diet pills, breast enhancers, and other supplements are said to give women the body they desire.

In the novel women take roles in working, striking, and progressing. Overall, women were objectified to the discrimination due to gender stereotypes; however, they fought for their rights and equality regardless of the consequences in hopes of a brighter future for the generations to come.

But there is little agreement over when the twentieth century c.e. arrived, and there were several points both before the year 2000 (the collapse of the Soviet Union, the reunification of Germany, the surge of globalization from the mid–1990s) and afterward (9/11, or the global recession of 2008) when one could quite plausibly argue that a new era had begun. A compelling case can be made for viewing the decades of the global scramble for colonies after 1870 as a predictable culmination of the long nineteenth century, which was ushered in by the industrial and political revolutions of the late 1700s. But at the same time, without serious attention to the processes and misguided policies that led to decades of agrarian and industrial depression from the late 1860s to the 1890s, as well as the social tensions and political rivalries that generated and were in turn fed by imperialist expansionism, one cannot begin to comprehend the causes and consequences of the Great War that began in 1914.
