Apperance and Advertising

The power of advertising is very strong with how we perceive outward beauty. We believe this is how people should look in order to be considered beautiful when in all actuality it's an unreachable thing because everything is so photo shopped now a days and even the model in the ad doesn't even look like that. So women see the girls portrayed in ads and believe that's what men like and want. So they try to make themselves like that so they do various extremes from starving themselves and having eating disorders to having plastic surgery to completely alter their appearances. Men actually only find women in ads attractive as a fantasy romance, they don't actually want their woman to look like that. Now this is hard to believe because most women all feel that they need to look like those girls to be good enough. I personally believe that some men, the good ones left out there anyway, take personality into account first and looks second; but that seems to rarely occur. Some ultimate results that can be seen from this modern trend are: eating disorders, death, low self-esteem, suicides, extreme plastic surgery, and loss of money on various beauty products and weight loss supplements.
