22. Mass Media
Mass media powerfully influences our perceptions of beauty, our attitude toward others, and our own self-image.
The media promotes images that can harm our self-esteem and tempt us to do unhealthy or expensive acts to try and live up to the beauty ideals we see through media.

23. Media Messages about Bodies
The media presents messages about “ideal” body types for both men and women.
Men are expected to be muscular, strong, violent, masculine, aggressive, tough, and dominant.
Women are expected to be feminine, thin, dainty, and passive.

24. GI Joe vs. Barbie
GI Joe and Barbie represent an unrealistic body type that can lead to damaging self-esteem.
If Barbie were a full size female her measurements would be This is typical of a woman suffering from anorexia.
GI Joe ( action figures) send messages that boys are powerful and important, that boys do great things, and fight the bad guys to protect the innocent.
Action figures are becoming grotesquely muscular.
Biceps bigger than their heads
Both toys represent unrealistic and virtually impossible body types for any human to attain.

26. The Beauty Industries
Our insecurities about our size, shape and appearance of our bodies has created a multi-billion dollar economy.
Fashion/Cosmetics/Fragrance/Weight Loss/Cosmetic Surgery
Clothing is designed to suit the tall, thin frames.
The cosmetic industry suggests that freckles, pores, fine lines, and wrinkles are to be covered and hidden. (airbrush)
We spend $20 billion a year on cosmetics to help us try and conform to society and look like what we see in the media.

27. Journal Reflection
Why is the American body ideal for women so thin today? And why is the body ideal for men so large and muscular? Does this tell us anything about the roles we expect men and women to fulfill?
Can you think of any “plus-size” celebrities today? How are they portrayed?
Did you play with Barbie, G.I. Joe or other similar toys when you were growing up? Do you think this had any effect on your ideas about male and female bodies or male and female roles?
Journal entry at end of PPT. have students choose 1 and work on for minutes at the end of class. Turn in assignment before leaving class. Grade

28. Our distorted view of the media is the poison in the blood of society.

Behind the Scenes:
All About That Bass
By Meghan Trainor
June 2014
“I know you think you're fat
But I'm here to tell ya
Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top
Yeah my mama she told me don't worry about your size”
This music video is a positive influence because it tells the audience to be confident about themselves despite what they think. In a behind the scenes video, the artist herself says, “I wanted to write a fun song about the world and we thought, ‘Why not do a song about loving yourself, and loving your body, because I don’t think girls love themselves as much as they should.’”
