We should not compare ourselves with the others.

Media has played a big role in shaping the body image today. Many people, especially women, had undergone plastic surgeries and experienced eating disorders to achieve the look they want. Even the African women where their body image is for a bigger body, are becoming unsatisfied with their body as a result of influence by the West.However, I would like to stress that we must not compare ourselves with the others, especially the models and actresses you see in the advertisements. There will be always someone better than us in every aspect. If we compare ourselves to the models and actors, most of the time we tend to copy them. We all are unique, why should we make comparisons with the models and actors? We do not have to try to make others look worse or better, we do not have to not judge so much, all we have to do is to accept ourselves as we what we are because being confident in ourselves is the main key to being beautiful. 



SURVEY QUESTIONS: 

SEX:
1. Do you feel bad about your body or the way you look after seeing an advertisement with perfect-looking models? WHY do you feel so?
2. Do you often control how much food you eat because you are too concern about the way you look? 
3. Do you think that it has become a habit to often compare ourselves to other people? In your opinion, what causes comparison? 
4. Have you ever tried to copy the way the actors/actresses dress up, the way they look or the way they behave? 
5. Do you think that life would be so much happier if we are confident with ourselves and not comparing ourselves to others?
