Now that we have read six articles for Popular Culture, look back on those six articles (from Aug. 31-Sep. 14) and explain which of these six articles provides the most provocative and interesting information for the reader. Why is this information interesting? Is this information also something that is important for the reader to know or think about? Why or why not?
-Of the six articles we read, I think the most provocative and interesting to me was "Only Two Percent of Women Describe Themselves as Beautiful," but Dove, Strategy One, Nancy Etcoff, and Susie Orbach. The thing that caught my attention with this article was that the percent of women who think they're beautiful is so low, and the fact that they did actual tests/surveys to prove it. The reason women think they aren't beautiful is because they don't look how our society expects them too. Well America, not all girls can have that perfect body and face like everyone would like! Also, not every women can afford to get surgical procedures to look that way! I think this information is important for the reader to think about because then they can see the impact our society actually has on women. We should not judge wether someone is beautiful or not by just wants on the outside, but what's on the inside as well.
You say that "We should not judge whether someone is beautiful or not by just wants on the outside, but what's on the inside as well." So, we should still be judging at least partially by the outside? How much of a percentage?
