The number one thing contructing the people's view of image is the media. As cliche as it sounds, it will really be the death of us to sit back and let the unknown "they" tell us how to look, while at the same time destroy us. First off, the main goal is to sell, which is again severely over-said. The television tells people that they are ugly and need product X to be more socially acceptable. Everyone sees product X and decides they need to 1-up each other, so everyone buys it. Then at the same exact time, everyone is told how delicious product Y is. Without the taste explosion of product Y how can one ever live a full and complete life? And all this talk about how unacceptable one is, is just enough to make one crave that product Y to feel good. Then down the road after product Y has done its damage because of the vast assortment of vile ingredients in it such as unknown compounds and enough calories to feed a third world country, one will realize yet again how socially unacceptable they are and go back to product X in one of its many forms. And the convenience is what will really be the death of mankind. In our modern day society it is easier than every to kill oneself without even realizing it. Exercise is becoming a long forgotten practice and food is more important than ever. To think of the chemicals flowing through the bodies of the masses that have been pumped into them by the massive entity known as "commericalized production." But what does it matter if we are systematically killing ourselves off right? The television says we arent happy anyway.
