Picture
This is a great question! I'm not sure how society came to the decision that women must be unrealistically thin, but this photo is a perfect example of the transformation. The top four photos depict the ideal woman's figure but appear to be undernourished and skeletal. The lower photos are obviously decades old and show healthy, beautiful women. There is so much pressure to look a certain way, and women will always fall short because that 'way' is constantly changing. This image portrays how powerfully pop culture influences body image nationwide.

    I am a first year student at FGCU studying Social Work. I have a passion for helping people, and I too have struggled with the unrealistic expectations of beauty in society. I hope that through this blog, people will be able to find peace with themselves and with society.
