Response to Ruth

I completely agree with Ruth that the media have a negative impact on an individuals self esteem and cause people to do things which are bad for their health with the desire to be thin. I think this is bad of the media and they should accept responsibility for the influence they have on society and be a lot more careful about what they write in papers which are accessible to all. At the end of the day they need to remember that young girls are reading the articles when they are laughing at the way someone looks or pointing out how much weight someone has put on. This can have a serious impact on the way a young person views themselves and cause them to engage in dangerous behaviour.http://i-wish-philosophy-was-pink.blogspot.com/
