MissRepresentation in Media
Media degrades women. They make women worry about their weight and about their looks. Most girls under the age of 13 are already unhappy with their bodies. The reason behind all of this is media. Media presents this perfect woman that all the men are attracted to. The women who believes that media is reality tries to copy those women. They try to get skinnier but not eating or making themselves vomit, and get plastic surgery to have a smaller nose or have bigger breasts.
Men also have it bad. They are taught to be manly and hold their emotions. They become emotionally constipated. If men shows signs of weakness, they are frowned down upon in society. Media teaches men that they should always be masculine.
I think that it is horrible what an effect media has on women and girls. Media causes them to do some unhealthy things to their bodies. Although it is getting much better, we still have some big problems within media.
