My topic I chose is "how has social media changed the body image for women?" I started off with social media marketing and found a source that talked about this instead. I found this a lot more interesting because being a girl I know how images on social media can affect the perception of our body images when seeing other girls online. The "ideal" body image has changed throughout the years and led to people trying to achieve this image of perfection. Why do people need the affirmation of being perfect? Why does it influence people so much? How does it actually affect people? Is there an increase in eating disorders because of it?
