Anti-active

The way the media portrays women as being is unrealistic and and terrible. The media casues women to beleive that they are not good enough being the way they are. so many commercials talk about improving the way people, especially women, look and how it wil imporve the value and everyday of someone's life. Commercials like the Por-active and weight-loss commercials only add to self-doubt that women have about themselves. In these commercials people talk about how the product changed their life. The Pro-active commercails are the main commercials that drive me crazy. The people talk about how before they used this product they were always self-conscious about themselves when they went out in public and they never felt comfortable in public becasue they didn't feel good about the way they looked. But when they go Pro-active they all of a sudden felt amazing about themsleves and comfortable in public becasue they no longer have any pimples. Give me a break! That is so ridiculous. By putting these messages up on tv the companies are putting the idea that they way a person is is not acceptable and they should by the product so they are not so vile. I can barely stand to watch these commercials becasue the message they send is so shallow. Women and even men should not feel that if they are not beautiful. The media has sends a horrible message and women and men need to learn how to ignore these ideas before the world is completely full of people who are depressed simply about their exterior.
