Assignment 2 Objectification theory


 The Two materials that i read ,noticed  that they are a lot's  of theory about objectification and beauty myth.  It shows us how woman are objectified in the modern world, and how they feel about it.
At the beauty myth i noticed a frase which  grab  my attention:
"Thirty-three thousand  American woman told researchs that they would rather lose ten to fifteen pounds than achieve any other goal. "

Nowadays  we see woman and girls that wan to do cosmetic surgery only that they would be desirable to the men's  eyes. Thinking about one think to be beautiful and charming they forgot that the real beauty is inside  in our soul. Losing weight or doing cosmetic surgery for many women means finding a good job and be respected. But i totally disagree with this  because to become a better person doesn't mean that you have to lose weight or to do cosmetic surgery, you need to be educated and well prepared.  In my opinion doing cosmetic surgery or losing weight only to feel beauty is a waste of time because  everyone is beautiful inside.

In the lecture i found a frase  in which I am totally agree with it:
"In general, media portrayals  are considered sexually objectifying when the visual media spotlight woman's bodies and body parts,especially when depicting them as the target of a nonreciprocated male gaze."


About this frase i agree because nowadays we can see in television commercials, magazines, music videos that use women's body only to have more views in their music or more sale in their magazine. Woman body is used everywhere like their own property doing what they want with it  exposing parts that effect directly in our life. Doing this kind of things can make us feel ashamed  about our own body and life. In my opinion exposing women's bodies in daily life is wrong and we need to change it.
