nope, the media provide to us what we want to see. If everyone have S&M fetish (and i mean everybody, the fetish being the norm and anyone who isn't interested is the minority) then the media will feed us that, with the best possible eye candy to buy our attention.

I have read and done research on that topic and some people actually splice images and body parts of different people and photoshop the models so i think it is quite distorted. Also most of the models have a B.M.I that is conidered underweight by some doctors. but as john doe said the media sells what the people currently want.

It's totally in the eye of the beholder. Personally I think that the current image of beauty portrayed in the media is particularly ugly and cannot find anything attractive about the stick thin girls with soggy looking lips (lip gloss should be banned, surely?!!) and prominent collarbones - or indeed the foppish and rather androgynous look of modern greasy-haired male 'heartthrobs'. But I'm probably a minority of one!!

Absolutely...the media has way too much influence on how we think about so many different cultural topics: beauty, lifestyles, etc. As far as beauty, what happened to the value of inner beauty?

Very much so, many of the ppl we see in magazines and on t.v. are photo shopped, they don't look like that. And I heard somewhere that the national average size for women in America is 16, you don't see that on the cover of Cosmo.

Of course it is. It is crazy for someone to compare their looks to that of some celebrity who has a team of people to create their look. Not to mention the "touch-ups" that are used in the photos.
