Fake

Not genuine; counterfeit. All the pictures and magazines there is not one that has not been photo shopped. By photo shopped I mean they trim off a little here a little there. Smaller waist smaller legs. The goal is to make them look smaller than reality. They trim and condense the pictures. There is not one picture that has not been photo shopped, not one. Whether you believe that there is a devil out there, or believe that Satan is real, whatever evil you believe is in the world this is one of his strongest weapons. I remember a little while back when someone started to fight back. This happened when a model saw the picture of her in the magazine. It was changed so much from the original, so she posted the real picture next to the fake one. The differences were extensive. That was not what real people look like. Society puts out unrealistic expectations on girls. It's not reality, stop making the young girl who sees a magazine at the store think that there are people who look like that. Why don't I look like that? Stop making the teenage girl scrolling through her social media look at the pictures, and think that is how she has to look for people to like her, to be accepted. How can I get myself to look skinnier? Stop setting an expectation for women who will put everything they have into fitting that expectation, into looking like that picture. They will never reach this goal. It is unreachable. It doesn't exist. Stop making them feel that this is something they want to strive for. This idea of perfection creates gaps and problems in self confidence, family's, health and so much more. Stop creating this expectation and idea of being perfect. Stop tricking people into thinking that they want to be fake.
