From the Paper:

"A little girl's first exposure to beauty often comes early, possibly when she is given a makeup vanity or dress up clothes. Most parents are not aware that these simple gifts begin a vicious cycle of salon visits, beauty routines, and other means of making oneself live up to a "standard" of beauty. Even the very idols that young women look up to are promoting this beauty standard, by doing things such as getting cosmetic surgery at a very young age. These idols set the standard of beauty for young women, encouraging them to obtain cosmetic enhancement when their bodies have not yet fully matured. Many people wonder what makes a woman attractive. The media produces an image with big eyes, long hair, and most importantly, big breasts. Because society places such an emphasis on beauty and voluptuousness, more and more women each year are racing out to have cosmetic surgery. (Fig 2.3) Many of these women have no idea what the risks and side effects of these surgeries could be, and with breast augmentation rated as the second most common cosmetic procedure, this lack of knowledge is scary."

I went to George Mason University as a Music Education Major. After several upper level english courses, I decided that music was not my true calling, and I transferred to a local community college to save some money. I am now a Nursing major in honors english and I am planning to transfer to the University of South Florida this year.
