The following information is from AdMedia (https://www.admedia.com/media-and-body-image.php). If you go to the bottom of their page, you will find some helpful links.
Here are some statistics relating to the media and how it has an effect on women and their body image
  • Most models weigh an average of 23% less than a typical woman. Twenty years ago, this difference was a mere 8%.
  • Over twenty years ago, the diet business was not as profitable as it is now, with much of this relating to the media. Today, this industry consists of over $33 billion each year.
  • There has been at least a sixty percent increase over the last twenty five years in the way women are portrayed; now, over half of women in media are perceived as sexual objects.
  • Shockingly, problems with eating disorders have increase over 400% since the year 1970.
  • Only five percent of women in the US actually fit the current body type popularly portrayed in advertising today.
  • Teen People Magazine conducted a recent survey. In it, they discovered that over 25% of the girls surveyed felt that the media makes them feel pressure to have a perfectly shaped body.
  • In another study, 69% of girls concurred that models found in magazines had a major influence on their concept of what a perfect body shape should look like.
