Reflection about Miss Representation

The documentary 'Miss Representation' did a great job of portraying how media effects women in many different ways, physically, mentally and emotionally. In my perception true beauty is in the inside and has nothing to do with ones physical appearence. Although in todays times worldly entanglements has made it all about the outside. As for the media, it is often said that the media is to blame for the way women are expected to "look and behave". But, I feel its all about ones self, if you are in control of yourself and your body, then no one but yourself is to blame. Media does exploit the bodies of women but the only way for that to stop is if other women around the world dont follow that "look." Buying clothes that show a lot of skin and appear innappropraite obviously shows that you want to be like those women being shown in movies and the media. Girls,boys, women and men are being influenced in many  wrong ways but one has to be strong and not follow those manners. "Its your mind, body, and soul CONTROL it and appear the way you want to, NOT how others want you to." Respect yourself as then others will respect you in return. I believe that its your own decision of how you want to be treated, and how you want to physically look. Be your own person, why be like every-other person/ women out there?
