In today’s society a large amount of society’s influences or role models are those we see on television, movies, soaps, etc. Follow me now. However, at times society fails to realize that Hollywood has the power to provide this flawless, perfect persona. Hollywood is able to makeover the ugliest ducklings and transform them into beautiful swans to fit in their flawless world. Nevertheless, we hardly know at what cost it takes for that transformation to happen, so then in the real world, people oddly surmise that the Hollywood look is the ideal appearance everyone should strive for and at whatever cost. Primarily these are thoughts that roam a typical shallow guy's mind and a insecure or obese woman's mind especially insecure and obese women.
Women should carefully examine their reasons for wanting to lose weight or enhance their beauty. Many women loose weight primarily for the wrong the reasons. These are the following top reasons: 1) So they could feel comfortable in public places, 2) Get attention from the opposite sex, and 3) So they can brag about themselves (i.e. all that and a bag of chips) I think losing weight, if necessary should be done to be fit and healthy. It seems there is a correlation to women’s self esteem level and whether women succumb to the demands of what a beautiful woman of society is.
Come on ladies, you should have high self esteem not LACK of self esteem. Women should love themselves for how they are created and built inside and out. I say that to say this, if you are women and you are obese, loose weight to be healthy and fit for yourself. Do not loose weight to make anyone like you. If you are a women and you are insecure about yourself, embrace your beauty and worth. If you don’t, who will? What do you think?

I agree the media does play a big part in how women percieve themselves. I also feel that different institutions have a huge impact on that perception as well. A very prominet one is family. People need to hear when theyre young especially from their parents how beautiful they are because its when we are children that our sele esteem is developed.
In my opinion and by being a woman I believe that if a woman does not feel comfortable in her skin in public nor in private then she has the right to change. The problem is why she wants to change her appearance. Some reality shows that were made and portrayed the Hollywood image gave counseling for the toll feeling uncomfortable which results in lowering self-esteem took on the women up until that point. It is true that most women do it for the wrong reason but at the same time the image of beauty is being defined all around us. On the campus of HU you can find a plethora of young females that either wear 6 - 8 inch heels on the daily or uggs with their pants tuck in neatly. Hollywood is not the only place that creates an image of the ideal beauty...ideal beauty comes from different cultures and religions and people of ALL ages and races do and undergo unbelievable circumstances to achieve that image just to be accepted by not only themselves but their family and the world.
