This document discusses how culture, media, and other external factors influence perceptions of body image. It provides several activities for students to analyze these influences, including how social media, television, movies, and friends can shape ideas of body image. Students are encouraged to identify celebrities that have helped change perceptions and discuss how fixed body ideals from media can influence self-esteem. The goal is for students to understand these societal pressures and develop strategies to reduce feelings of needing to look a certain way.
