Hey all,
I'm doing a rather irritating research project on body image and media. My focus is mainly on women, but any responses are good!
Mostly, what I want to know is: Does the media (magazines, tv ads, etc.) have an effect on your body image? Have you ever felt pressure to look like the ideal image? What do you think "ideal" body image is? Did you at any point in your life feel pressure to look like the ideal? Do you think it effects others? If so, what age/gender/ethnicity?
You don't have to answer. Or, if you want to give me your life's story, that's good to. There are no wrong answers... I just wanted to do a bit of primary research.
