we need the media to keep us in touch with the outside world However, the influence of social media on ourselves, family and society as a whole is so big that we should know how it really works. more women are obsessive with losing weight even when they are not obese, there are many thin women that want to look like the super models and thin celebrities so they engage in eating disorders which leads to severe health issues and even death . The media shapes our attitudes about everything from soaps ,music ,fashion ,movies ,food to politics. It's important for us to be aware of the impact the media has on each and every one of us . We need to be vigilant and ask ourselves to look for opposing opinions and evaluate the facts for ourselves rather than blindly accepting the media's version of the "truth" .it all boils down to one question .....who comes up with those standards ?.who decides if a size zero is the most appropriate for a woman ?who decides that if u do not wear certain trends you are uncool ?.the media possesses so much power over us and we fail to realise it , it is so powerful that sometimes we fail to see when it sneaks its way in our lives .http://www.selfgrowth.com/
