Body Image
... Body image can make a person or emotionally wreck them. ... Men are at the gym, striving for that toned body they think is the answer to all their problems. Why, for the mere satisfaction of having the “perfect” body; however, what constitutes the “perfect” body. For women this image of the perfect body would be exceptionally thin, considerably large breasts, and perfect hair, skin and teeth. ... The average media-portrayed man would have a toned, tanned, muscular body, and be tall in stature, such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Chuck Norris or Vin Diesel. More often than not, when society turns on the television, flips through a magazine, surfs the web, goes to the movies, or even walks through the Barbie aisle in a toy store most feel overwhelmed by the so-called “perfect” image that society has set as an acceptable standard for people.
