Each society and culture has their own way of interpreting what is beautiful and how people should act and look. In American society the media is often the perpetrator of these concepts.
The article in Media Making about the Ralph Lauren model is a good example of the media forming an idea of an ideal person.
Ralph Lauren, and other companies, have created the ideal woman in the image of a stick. This idea of the perfect woman permeates our culture through advertising. It becomes a social problem which affects the idea of beauty and how women deal with their own bodies.
