Advertisng the perfect woman?

Women all around the world are under a lot of pressure to try and make them selves look perfect 24/7 because of magazines and advertisements, which show women what they are supposed to look like. You cant go a day without seeing a made up model which has been photo shopped to the max. They are shown on magazines, billboards, TV adverts and the biggest of all are all over social media like Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. Celebrities uploading images of them self’s looking perfect all the time but what everyone doesn’t know is that they edit everything that is seen by the public.

So is this right?

Is it okay for advertising companies to portray women in this way?

In reality there is very few people that look perfect in person. This means advertising companies give out the wrong view on perfection for the younger generation.

In class we also looked at models compared to normal women, this was really interesting because it was normal everyday women posing and copying exactly what the model in the advert was doing. This shows how different models are to normal women and what photoshop can do to image is crazy.
