There's much controversy when it comes to who exactly is at fault for young teens and adults developing some type of eating disorders. Some argue that it is the being themselves who are wholesomely responsible, while others can also blame it on parents, friends etc. but what many people really tend to argue about is the media/industry itself. Many model agencies put out this skinny image brainwashing us to believe that, that is how beauty really looks, when in reality it is not. Many agencies often times tell girls to loose weight because they are fat when they look and weigh what is considered to be very normal. For those who argue that the media/industry does not influence people to loose weight, pursue perfection, and what is considered to be beautiful, guess what you guys are totally wrong. I found this really interesting video which perhaps can show you how exactly our minds are being flooded with this type of thinking. You may have not noticed it as much as before but the media is always advertising a new way to get slim, how to be beautiful, oh and one of my favorites that magazine's also love "the top sexist women", which I'm pretty sure I've never seen anyone who looked overweight on there. Oh by the way I also wanted to mention you see that picture on the up top, guess how I found that picture??? Ok the suspense is over, I went to google.com, clicked on images and typed in Media, Fashion and Beauty which showed many different pictures of how the media portrays beauty, Still not convinced media lovers??? Well here is the video I found, for those who choose not to leave some fault at the media, take a closer look:
