...not a size. Many adolescent women suffer from obtaining the body image they are constantly shown all throughout mass media, whether if it is mentally or physically. For example, with advertisement commercials only using thin models, cover page magazines filled with subtitles such as “Slim”, “Hottest Body”, “Fit”, and “Sexy”, and the fashion industry consisting of only models that fit into a size double zero or a two, society has projected this “ideal image” of the perfect body which has greatly shaped the perception of women. This film focuses on forcing people to realize the faults in their beliefs and adherence to stereotypes such as the ones suppressed upon young Ana, and hopes to move them beyond those beliefs and into a more accepting...

...people’s self-image and behavior? That question is debated every time a “copy cat” criminal strikes and claims he saw the act committed in a movie. It has also arisen in connection with eating disorders and low self-esteem and how they relate to the appearance of the human body as portrayed in the media. This paper argues that there is now sufficient evidence to support a link, though not necessarily a direct causal link, between the media portrayal of the “ideal” body and people’s (especially women) reaction to their own bodies. Specifically, it argues that the unrealistically thin women and well-muscled men shown on television and in film show a body image that most people cannot attain, no matter how much they diet and exercise. Despite this, society insists that these distorted images are the “ideal,” leading some people to develop eating disorders or other psychological problems such as low self-esteem and body dissatisfaction when they fail to attain these impossible standards. Discussion As noted, the argument over whether there is a direct link between media images and body dissatisfaction is still a matter of debate; what is no longer debated is that “negative exposure effects” do in fact occur (Dittmar, 2009, p. 1). That is, it no longer in doubt that some individuals are affected negatively by what they see in the media. What studies are attempting to do now is to determine what “diverse factors” make these people susceptible to the impact of the media images, while...

...Francisco Goya From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "Goya" redirects here. For other uses, see Goya (disambiguation). This name uses Spanish naming customs: the first or paternal family name is Goya and the second or maternal family name is Lucientes. Francisco Goya Autorretrato de Goya (1795).jpg Self-portrait, c. 1796-97. Museo del Prado, Madrid Born 30 March 1746 Fuendetodos, Aragon, Spain Died 16 April 1828 (aged 82) Bordeaux, France Nationality Spanish Known for Painting, drawing Movement Romanticism Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes[A] (/ˈɡɔɪə/; Spanish: [fɾanˈθisko xoˈse ðe ˈɣoʝa i luˈθjentes]; 30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker. He is considered the most important Spanish artist of late 18th and early 19th centuries and throughout his long career was a commentator and chronicler of his era. Immensely successful in his lifetime, Goya is often referred to as both the last of the Old Masters and the first of the moderns. He was born to a modest family in 1746 in the village of Fuendetodos in Aragon. He studied painting from age 14 under José Luzán y Martinez and moved to Madrid to study with Anton Raphael Mengs. He married Josefa Bayeu in 1773; the couple's life together was characterised by an almost constant series of pregnancies and miscarriages. He became a court painter to the Spanish Crown in 1786 and the early portion of his career is marked by portraits commissioned by the Spanish aristocracy and royalty...
