Does watching Violence create violence?
This question cannot be answered simply with a yes or no, because it depends on the audience and situation.
Violence has been around long ago before any type of media such as television or radio, so violence is a part of every person, and this means every person has a different view on violence and if they’ll use violence themselves or not.
However if children grow up with a world of violence and always see violence, it’s a fact that they’ll be influenced in there daily life with violence, even without noticing.
And for children, who are depressed or experienced violence in their lives, watching even more violence can lead them into insanity and they might use violence for their own amusement. For example, the video game ‘Man Hunt’ became banned when 2 children kidnapped a child and abused him, trying to recreate a scene from the video game. It was found that those children that kidnapped the child weren’t normal children but were also abused and had a hard life.
Violence on TV can be perceived differently by different people and only influences violence to people who want to do violence. However violence does affect everyone who sees it, or experiences it because violence is part of everyone just as any other thing.
People still think about violence- one time or another. Or even creates violence, so watching violence affects people in their daily life but doesn’t specifically create violence- only to people who want to do violence.
Do the Imagaes of skinny models have an impact?
I strongly believe that images of skinny models do have an impact- in everyone, especially young girls.
Skinny models in magazines, newspapers, or TV affect young girls and women on a whole. Women will think that is what beauty is, and what woman doesn’t look beauty.
The impacts can be either positive or negative, but are mostly viewed as negative.
The positive ways in which skinny models impact models is that over-sized women will go to the gym, eat good food and become healthier, however the negative impact which affect women, is that women can become anorexic, bulimic and unhealthily skinny.
Anorexia has been in the media for a long time because of the impact of skinny models. Size zero models have therefore become banned in many catwalks and advertisement so it does not influence women.
