Children today often look up to other child actors, or what is portrayed as a child actor, and think, "why doesn't my body look like that? Aren't we the same age?" Growing up is hard enough, but growing up with the image of an 18 year old playing the age of a 14 year old on tv is incredibly difficult for viewers to see and it doesn't stop there as we get older, we look to magazines, fashion instagrams, influencers, and other media outlets to see what the latest trends are, but most importantly, we look to see what we should look like. Diets, exercise crazes, and the media's portrayal of the 'ideal body' has been a major contributor to women and young girls, as well as men, believing their natural body shape is not acceptable. How did a time once filled with nothing but joy turn into this doom of "will my body be good enough"? America has grown increasingly more hostile towards body image over the past 50 years. Over the past several weeks, I've gotten many nervous "7 weeks until bikini time," "4 weeks until bikini season," "2 weeks until I have to be in a bikini," "I'm not going to the beach or any pool parties this summer" texts from several different friends.
Main stream media has begun to include all body types in modeling and advertisement campaigns, but yet there's a sense of not feeling good enough still lingering in the air. Summer is the warmest and most fun season, but it can also easily be the most stressful season for anyone who suffers from body image issues.
