Body Image
Did you know that 80% of women say that the images if women in television and in movies, fashion magazines, and advertising makes them feel insecure? Body Images is a growing problem among our society today. Some people believe that Body Image is something that come purely from the mind. they day its not influenced by media. Others believe that Body Image is something that can be influenced easily by media and magazines. They say society is influenced by the pressure to be skinny.

This is a magazine that a lot of people read in their everyday lives.This can influence us by insinuating that this is we are supposed to look like.

"Demi Lovato attacked the Disney Channel on Twitter last week for making eating disorders and using increasingly smaller stars in their shows that cater to teens." Disney had made an error in creating their jokes. A joke was made on the popular tellevision show "Shake It Up." It said " I could just eat u
