I! (ALGUIEN PORFA ME AYUDA)
A IRBRUSHING is when photos are changed by using computer software to make people look even better in them, In the beginning, it was used to tidy up' small problems in photos: a hair standing up on someone's head was removed, or a spot on their skin was hidden. These days, digital technology and editing are more advanced, and it's difficult to find a photo of a model or celebrity in a magazine which hasn't been improved by airbrushing.
You see these women with legs like sticks and perfect skin and you know they aren't real; says 15-year-old Shelly. But when you're reading an article about a celebrity you admire, you forget that, and just want to look like them: Corey, also 15, says, 'People think it's just girls that are upset by this stuff but it's boys, too. We're supposed to have big muscles, like sportspeople, but that's impossible to achieve if it isn't your natural body shape: Research has shown that seeing pictures of 'perfect' models in magazines leads readers to feel less confident about the way they look. This also leads to negative body image.
Mobile phone apps aren't helping the situation. They allow us to change photos of ourselves until we feel happy enough with the way we look to post them online. And although stricter rules are now in place for adverts, unfortunately, there is still a long way to go in changing the media industry's attitudes towards what is thought beautiful.
Fortunately, there are plenty of people campaigning to change things. Former actress Meghan Markle and singer Paloma Faith have both spoken out about not liking magazines to airbrush their photos. Politicians have fought for even stricter rules on how airbrushing can be used. On a smaller scale, the Girl Guides (a UK Scouts organisation for young women) have already approached the government to get labels put on airbrushed photos (with no positive result so far). They've also introduced the 'Free being me' badge, which members can achieve by showing they can recognise airbrushed pictures and by spreading messages in their local community about how positive it is to have a natural look. These are small steps, but if people keep taking them, perhaps one day we'll find that the natural look is considered beautiful again.
