SELF IMAGE: THE FANTASY, THE REALITY
What is "the perfect body", and why does everyone want it? This program digs deep into the American obsession with body image, taking a zoom lens to the images we see on television and billboards, in films, and magazines. Young men and women speak their minds about how waif-thin models and macho-men make them feel about themselves. We also hear from young people who survived eating disorders and steroid abuse, as well as from teens who are getting help on the road to healthy self-esteem. Model agency head Katie Ford and magazine editor Lesley Seymour offer valuable insights and advice, raising an awareness of what's real and what's fantasy in the media. With the help of the publisher, teens will learn how to "tune-out" media images and listen to who they really are.
