After watching the film “Miss
Representation” I realized how much media and the world we live in today has an
impact on young ladies. We have all seen the real truth when the Dove ad
finally showed the truth and took us through the process of becoming beautiful.
Social media is giving off false information and is leading girls/women into
more harmful issues than they are helping them. There have been times when I
have walked into a public bathroom and there have been little sticky notes on
the mirror that say “Smile, you’re beautiful”.
I think it is important to keep the message of “You are beautiful”. Many young women today are trying so hard to
fit in with society and the media. They are led to believe that you can only be
successful if you are a certain weight, or if you have flawless hair and skin.
That is not true, and I think everyone needs to become a part of society that
stands us and help ladies accept themselves for who God made them into be. All
of the plastic surgeries, and eating disorders
associated with becoming “beautiful” is on the rise and it is not healthy. The
truth about beauty dates way back into history when artists made women
beautiful by painting their faces and bodies. I think
women/girls need to learn to respect who they are and not try to be someone
that they are not meant to be. I hope more ladies will realize that they are
beautiful from within and not how they appear on the outside.
