FAKE YOUR BEAUTY: The Models we wish we looked like, wish they looked like themselves as well.

What is pretty, what is considered beauty. The standard of beauty is basic skinny, white or light long hair and eyes nose lips contoured and sculpted to perfection. Although the imagine of beauty sticks to it standard it seems that it changes , skinny get skinnier, noses get more and more plastic looking, the ultimate goal is to look like they plastic painted Barbie. We watched a clip I have seen before  a little girl picking what in her mind is the image of beauty. She was  given the same doll one white one black and to pick which one displays the image and meaning of beauty; she picked the white doll without hesitation. Here we are in the new millennium and a young African American girl has picked an Caucasian with out thinks for being the imagine of beauty. So does that leave her to feel as if she does not amount to what america or society considers pleasing to the eye. Why is this why does she feel this way because that is what she see, kids are little recorders  and when you hit play they reenact or blurt what the see and hear. If society is only showing one imagine of beauty and she does not fit it then she will not think. Which could lead to self esteem issue which more than 40% girls have in america. With 92% wanting to change something about their imagine Looking at these images of perfection on tv, magazines, videos have some girl bossed with trying to gain the imagine they see because not only do they compare themselves to these celebrity woman, the boys see these images to and hold such a high and un-achievable standard of beauty that the celebrity women in these pictures have not even reached. Yes you read right the woman in the picture aren't the woman in the pictured they are photo shopped. Now if I could get photo-shopped before I left the house than would i change the standard of beauty. These celebrity's better thank Jesus for computers. Even photo shopped can leave you looking like an fool.
