Class 5, Assignment 5

After watching the video I felt that it was very sad how much social pressure we place on beauty. People see ads with celebrities and models and feel the need to live up and look like the people they see in these images. I think we should try to push for more natural beauty in which people are able to appreciate themselves for the way they are and were born. In addition, always seeing these idealistic forms of "beauty" makes people very insecure and have little self-worth for themselves. This is a terrible thing and can even perhaps be the reason why we see eating disorders so common in teens as they struggle to fit and meet societal expectations of physical looks and beauty.
