Beauty as we know it is an almost impossible standard to live up to and trying to achieve what is portrayed as beauty can lead to serious disorders in people of all race and gender. I chose to focus on media and body image for my Fire Project because it is an ongoing issue that is taking time and diligence to recover from. This issue is important to me because I have been teased by family and friends for my weight which in return has lowered my self-esteem. I wanted to show people how the ads and commercials that we see affect what we see as beauty.
