My name is Amber Flores. I am 21 years old,and I'm from Calexico, California but i moved to Norman, Oklahoma four years ago. One of the most important things in my life is my family, I am very close to them. I have one older brother named Eric, and we live together. I go to the University of Oklahoma and I play softball here also.It pretty much takes up all my time but I love it. I am a really lucky person and I know that I'm blessed beyond belief! The reason i choose to take body image is because it has very interesting issues that I want to learn about. My expectations for this course are to learn not only about important issues but learn about myself too. As crazy as this sounds, sometimes I am so busy that I feel like i do not think about myself or even have time to think about issues that I face. I really don't feel like I have issues with my body and I am happy with what god blessed me with; but this class might open my eyes to other topics.
Question 1: How much on an impact does the media have on teenagers view of body image?
Question 2: What does body image exactly mean?
Question 3: How come people precieve beauty and being skinny?
Question 4: Who sets the standards of beauty?
Question 5: Why do people cut themselves?
