After viewing Britney Spear's Toxic video, I suddenly remembered a video that related perfectly to the topic. The unobtainable level of beauty the media expects women to reach is something that destroys many girls. Their self confidence, their mentality, is impaired by the stress to be "beautiful." Illnesses like anorexia and bulimia have been attributed to girls struggling to force their bodies to fit the "image".
This is the video, Doll Face. I watched it years ago and was struck by the message it sent even back then. I wish I could have shared it with my fellow classmates.
