Beauty/Society


Nowadays, looking good is part of every woman's life. Appearance plays a big role in society, and most women make sure that they are constantly up to date with the latest fashion and trends. There is a lot of pressure from society to be beautiful. It seems like who we are depends on how beautiful we are. We see beautiful people everywhere. When we open a magazine, we never see a 400-pound woman on the first page. Instead we see a woman who is 23% skinnier than the average woman. Advertisers show stunning models living the perfect life to try and entice us into buying their product. They give the illusion that if we buy their product, we will become beautiful and have the desired life. Advertisements don't try to get us to buy a product so that we will be better people; they sell products because we can be beautiful if we own them.
