Media Influence on Eating Disorders
In our Civics class, we are doing social justice projects that relate to modern day problems. My classmate, Alice, and I chose female stereotyping in the media because of its impact on female youth today. The way the media presents women gives young girls an image that is impossible to achieve. Unfortunately, not many people know that the media heavily retouches its photos, so girls who see these images are more prone to eating disorders.
