Our discussion today made me think of an episode of Bones I saw the other day. Bones was trying to find the identity of a woman by using her skull but the woman had had so much plastic surgery it was impossible for her to distinguish between her real facial structure and the plastic. The woman they were investigating continued to get plastic surgery every few weeks because she did not fell like she was beautiful. She lived in LA and she needed to uphold an amazing body. At the end of the episode they showed the young girls picture and she was very pretty the way she began.
The point I am trying to make is parts of our society are buying these advertisements. I know not everyone believes what they see and I know that the television show is fiction but there are some truths. Look at all the plastic surgeons, laser hair removal, botox doctors their are today.
Last semester I was doing an internship at X96 and one day on the show one of the sponsors came in to do a live ad-lib. I forgot the name of the company but they provided botox injections and Kerry, Bill, and Gina all decided to try a sample. Bill was not going to but he said his wife has been hounding him about the wrinkles around his eyes. I just couldn’t believe they were doing it right in the studio. They are radio DJs no one sees them. But because they had this opportunity they took it just to feel a little younger for awhile.
Like someone mentioned in class society is so desensitized. Some don’t even realize that these advertisments are affecting their life. Hydroxycut is that pill that helps you loose weight fast. Well I will admit I have tried it and it does not help. It made me sick. It all depends on your body type and everyones body type is different. We are all unique individuals.
This does not happen when you use this shampoo!!!
