Did you know the average model is 5'10" and 110 lbs (a size two), whereas the average woman is 5'4" and 145 lbs (a size twelve)? The media has women striving for something that is not within their reach. Everyday, the media bombards the world with images of the perfect woman: a tall, skinny and big-breasted woman who is passive, submissive and tends to her womanly duties. The unrealistic view of what a woman "should be" has females everywhere reaching for unattainable and sometimes unhealthy goals. The media's view of a woman is ubiquitous, but today I will discuss three of the major media sources: television, magazines and movies.

image. Its not one's fault but their own. if they don't have
either the will power to get fit and in shape or the inner
strength to realize that what they see on TV and in magazines is
rare and know that who they are is probably just perfect, then its
no one's fault but their own.
You wouldn't watch TV and look at ads in magazines if there were
fat, ugly people on it. Its the truth.
