The Average Girl...

girls in magazines and on tv today are potrayed as perfect, beautiful, and skinny. Girls in the real world, especially teenagers, think they need to look like these girls on tv so they harm themselves in order to get the perfect image. i think our society needs to lighten up on the pressure we put on girls. no one should think the way the look is wrong. the girls in the media arent real people. they are average looking people who are made up to look perfect. i watched a show the other day called toddlers and tiaras. little girls from less than a year old to around 5 years old are made up to win a beautfy competition. it sends the girls a terrible message from a young age that looks will help you get ahead. i think its rediculous that our society puts so much into the way we look and it effects our lives in every aspect.
