The injustice of Slavery echo in the narrative of Thomas--the discourse of the social and racial stratification that came with slavery.

    It also contributes to precocious sexualization by encouraging flirtatious behavior in the pageants; teaching these girls to be objects for others’ pleasures. These children are learning that acting sexy will get others’ attention, a problem young girls are having even though it is not their intention to come across with that connotation. He blames reality T.V. for making these girls focus more on physical appearance rather than their self – esteem. Even though pageant life can be relentless according to Hollandsworth, in section five, he blames the mothers and pageant agents for depriving these pageant girls from having a so call “normal child life.” He also presents the reader with the question of who are these girls doing pageants for? For themselves or their mothers? These pageants according to Hollandsworth present a Kate Middleton moment to live the princess story for both the mothers and children. He also makes a contrast of the simple life of Eden versus her celebrity life and the plenty of criticism she receives because she wants to be a star. He also talks about the financial cost Eden’s parents are undergoing for her to experience life outside Taylor, Arkansas.

    Especially at the stage of adolescence, girls like Sharon tend to be extremely self-aware of their own image and how they portray themselves towards the public. This is because as Sharon gets older, she’s more likely to care about how other people think of her. Age influences Sharon’s self-concept because as she gets older she’ll tend to behave in a certain way when she thinks she doesn’t belong anywhere, to be able to fit into everybody’s standards. As Sharon gets older, she’s more likely to develop her own self-image however peer pressure will prevent her from doing that as she will feel more pressured into fitting in and more fearful of being rejected by the majority.…

    therefore hearing this celebrity exposing her “new” gender sexuality resulted as a fabricated lie, a simple way to grab even more attention from viewers. However with more research I learned that it is in fact an existing concept but not well known. Miley Cyrus way manner to portray herself on media is perceived as innovative and “cooly” admirable for some people, yet it looks very fraudulent and just a show in my opinion. The way she expose her nude body like a normal issue bothers me for the fact that our body is sacred to ourselves and we have to love and respect ourselves before anything else, but she just uses it to publicity and the creation for many more scandals that can give her more attention and relevance around the world. Celebrities like Miley Cyrus have the idea of women revolution as a frequen easy way to gain more fans by taking their body exposure to another level where nothing is in the imagination…

    It might come as little surprise to discover that British parents have voted Miley Cyrus as the female celebrity they would least like as a role model for their children. In a poll of 2,287 parents with at least one child under 10, 78% voted Cyrus the worst example, followed by Nicki Minaj and Kim Kardashian. Meanwhile, the Duchess of Cambridge – who has, of course, made a career out of marrying a very famous and wealthy man – was ranked the best female role model for their kids. Would Cyrus, an inspiration to plenty of young women navigating their adolescence, sexuality and body hair, care? Probably not.…

    Where this agreement usually ends, however, is on the question of how this use of photoshopping is negatively affecting young women. Whereas some are convinced that girls put the pressure on themselves, others maintain that the media is to be held responsible for exerting pressure to have the “perfect body.” It is sometimes said that Kim Kardashian, a well-known celebrity, is a role model for these young women and girls. Recently, Kim Kardashian posted a naked selfie, edited using Instagram, claiming that this act was self-empowering. Kardashian herself writes for her online blog, "I am empowered by my body . . . I hope that through this platform I have been given, I can encourage the same empowerment for girls and women all over the world” (qtd. in Filipovic). Basically, what Kardashian was trying to say here is that girls and women should love their body no matter what they look like. Kardashian and other celebrities like her are speaking out for body image and are trying to help girls realize they don't have to have a flawless body; however, these flawless bodies, like Kardashian’s, are the types of bodies that are seen in advertisements for the fashion…

    Yes, I do believe media is responsible for the self-esteem and image for young girls and women. Media is something that everyone sees. According to the video people spend more than 10 hours a day looking at media. If someone spends 10 hours a day looking at media, that is almost half of the day. That means that most of the day is spent watching the females in media that are ‘perfect’. After seeing these ‘perfect’ girls everyday for hours on end than yes, they are going to start to believe that they are flawed and they should look like those ‘perfect’ girls or they are not good enough for anything. From a young age little girls are exposed to these false images of women. Those images stay with the little girl that grows to a teenager and then an adult all while believing that she should look more like the girls in media. With not being able to look like these flawless women, females are going to believe they are not good enough.…

    Part of the blame in childhood disappearing is placed on the parents of the children that encourage what is portrayed on this show while the other blame is placed on the greedy entertainment business that is allowing children to be sexualized, on television, to profit financially from it. In “Toddlers and Tiaras,” young girls are dressed in extravagant dresses, with their hair and makeup worn like women, spray-tanned, swaying down the runway showcasing their beauty and being judged for it. This poses another problem with a society where adults encourage children to act like more mature because it is easier for adults to relate to someone similar to themselves. The mothers in this show are insistent on their daughters modeling because of the mothers' possibly unrealized desires to have modeled sometime throughout their own lives. The sexualization of girls has significant consequences, such as negative effects on cognitive and emotional development in women and an increase in sexual harassment and violence in men toward women. If this show sexualizes and exploits young girls by allowing them to dress in provocative clothes such as the prostitute in “Pretty Woman,” girls are losing their…

    On August 25, 2013 the world watched in disgust as celebrity Miley Cyrus twerked and gyrated on stage at the Video Music Awards Show. People caused a fuss over her back up dancers all being African American women with large derrieres, her twerking, pointing to her feminine area on her body, pushing her face in one of her dancers derriere while smacking it, grinding on a foam finger, and grinding on a married man. The sociological perspective on deviance is described by “sociologist Howard S. Becker [as]: It is not the act itself, but the reactions to the act, that make something deviant” (Henslin 190). Although this behavior is deemed as normal in music videos and clubs, it was considered unacceptable because Miley Cyrus started her career as a child star on Disney Channel; a cable network that targets children of all ages. Miley started on a sitcom called Hannah Montana and quickly became popular with kids. Even though the star is now 20 years old and no longer work as Hannah Montana she is still considered that little girl from Disney and it shocked the world for her to behave in such a way.…
