Class Question/ Idea #1

1. it [Media] captures the imagination of random people and brings you into a world that is controlled by the media.

The media that captures myself and many other girls is pictures of models, weights loss pictures, advertisments on products, being perfect, skinny and beautiful, being flawless etc. I know it bring many people and not only myself into a world that you have to look like this and dress like this etc. I think its very brainwashing for those who get influenced easily. This also leads to many girls becoming anorexic or bullimic. Girls becoming obsessed with losing weight, going on diets and starving themselves. This controls on how girls looks at eachother, it causes competition and does lead to many deaths. This media is very psychological and strongly plays with the mind.

Girls should be happy with what they have, we are all beautiful in our own ways. Being beautiful doesn't mean you have to be skinny and look perfect all the time. What counts the most is what you have inside. Personality stays, beauty fades.
