Entry #3

Question that asked your opinion on your physical characteristic such as "do you want to lose weight?". " what are the reason to lose weight? and do you think you're fat? If these questions were being asked among women and young girls who live in a globalization society such as U.S, most of them will have one specific answer. These questions don't give the writer much information to generate his or her ideas on the related topic. Instead question such as "how does the media harm society when it comes to the ideal of beauty?" This question isn't asking our specific opinion when it comes to our body, instead it asking our perception on media influence society when it comes to the ideal body image.

The media can played two role in our society, depend on how society view it. In this case I'm focusing on the media portraying on the ideal body image that as a society we perceived as beauty and what it can leads to. For the women and young girls out there, some might view it as a motivation to workout and become healthier to get the desire body type. However some might take another direction to get the result by starving themselves and excessive exercise. These two ways can either benefit or harm our society. For my paper I'm focusing on the media harm society by playing a role on the different type of eating disorders.

Using a survey is a good source to see if the people are aware that the media played a role on their perception of their own body and see how does it affects them by giving evidence showing that women are insecure about their own body by asking questions such as if they want to lose weight? And if they are happy with their own body? These questions are example to see if as a society most of us are insecure of our own physical characteristics.  The result might show that most women and young girls are probably not happy with their body now and what they do to get their desire body.
