What is this short video clip showing you?
That the media can easily create idols which girls/ woman look up too, but these have completely unrealistic features and appear completely stereotypic.
In conclusion, there are probably quite a few negative aspects of the influence of the media on woman.
Especially if the picture is appearance focused, it makes the woman become like an object.
Especially in advertisements, when a woman is very exposed with a "perfect" body it sends the idea to the woman, that they should look like this to be pretty to men.
Mostly this is not healthy for a woman’s self confidence and i can go as far as to give woman eating disorders.
It should be taken into consideration that the media gets very close to the people and does not only affect them positively.
