I think that
standardized body size or idea of perfect body shouldn’t be taken into
consideration too much because such ideas may be variable from culture to
culture or from person to person. Idealized beauty concepts have wrong
and unethical effects on both an individual and world of advertisement and
commerce. To begin with effects of this strained concept of perfect body
size on individuals, this idea affects people really bad especially in
psychological way. People who don’t look like the ones showed in media may feel
that they won’t be accepted by society or by their friends. This kind of
situations may lead individuals to lose their self-esteem and they may become
withdrawn people. Also these perfect images taking place everywhere make people
obsessive about their looks. It is a common problem especially among teenagers
these days and this also opens a road to bigger problems such as anorexia and
depression. Secondly, this idea of perfect body size dictated by some people or
associations provides unfair income to specific sectors. Magazines use the
beautiful, perfect looking ladies and gentlemen to sell their copies. We don’t
realize these images affect us, but our subconscious is affected almost
directly by these images. Moreover, plastic surgery sector uses the same trick
to convince people. What they are saying implicitly is when you have plastic
surgery and look like the celebrities you see on covers of magazines you are
going to be happy as they smile in the exact same covers. To sum up, we
shouldn’t fall for these deceptive ideas and try to be happy as how we are.
