The document discusses how American media may be contributing to cultural imperialism and negatively impacting body image and eating disorders globally. It argues that increased exposure to social media and technology has led to a dependency on marketing techniques that promote unhealthy ideals of physical perfection.

The paper seeks to determine whether American media is exporting an unrealistic standard of beauty that harms people in other cultures.
