"What is the perfect body? What is the ideal man or woman? What should we do with our lives? And what role in society do we have based on our gender? These are ideals that change over time. They are not constant, but the media often portrays them as timeless facts." -Love it.

"Instead of rioting against authorities, they are rioting against themselves" This topic needs so much more awareness and discussion, great research

I'm a male and have felt all the things they say impact girls. Depression among men is widespread, this isn't a gender based crisis. This is a global crisis.

This video is so girl centric. All she was saying was what is the hard times that girls go through. If she was talking about media she should’ve talked about the poisonous propaganda that affects both genders. As a matter of fact statistically speaking as far as mental illness goes depression etc. boys statistically have it worse but we certainly should focus on who has it worse and certainly shouldn’t focus on just the stereotypes that affect the groups that we are personally affected by. Her heart was in the right place but she was to specifically focused. So amen to your comment.

​@@richardcarte139 most numbers of suic!de are men. Yet no one talks about it like it was never a problem.

imagine watching a super hero movie where the heros have average strength, average smarts, average looks. Most media especially films are supposed to take you out of your normal world and immerse you in something spectacular or extreme, films are art and money makers. They do have a powerful influence on people but ultimately you cannot please everyone and make all films not use stereo types, or have very attractive people. The way to help this issue is to not just raise awareness among film makers but rather educate the viewers on the difference between movies / media and reality.

I was forced to watch this by my english teacher but i have to admire that it was quite interesting and i fully understand what problem is the lady talking about.

Its a very interesting topic how the mass media and films have affected the psychic of people young and old. But I cannot find any interesting programs on you tube about the subject. This talk is narrow, just about the effects on young girls of today.

@PVTfluffy And it should narrow the way people view this video. I'm trying to find sources on a research paper of how *children* should be exposed to media. Not girls, *children*, and I just wasted maybe 6 or 7 minutes of my time on a source that isn't useful in the slightest. Not to mention her whole shpeal was chock full of loosely related facts or interpretations and much less actual statistics or lab studies. Ugh

and why are we even discussiong about the amount of access "given", no one should be allowed to censor what should be given and what should be not, but agree with the point which says that we have to teach the youth about the reality of Media Depictions. But you shouldn't take away the media from the youth, or in this case girls.

Its sad that out all the views this video has, there are only 5 comments and there is only one that in my opinion doesnt seem to be a result of the problem that she is talking about.

You have your biases as well. What would be interesting is to compare the image of women now and in the 19th century. Are women happier now or in the past. Men and women are different.

That escalated quickly...

Exactly, this is a human problem, too many people narrow things down to be a gender problem. We all live on this planet together, we need look past the boundaries of gender and instead try to improve humanity and society as a whole.

This changed from "How media negatively affectes YOUTH" to "how media negatively affects GIRLS". I guess as a 14 year-old boy, I don't matter in the eyes of the speaker

Sometimes, i doubt the existence of gender equality especially for the male's.

Yugen R. And you are the solution how.... Why could not see talk about both the genders...."especially girls" .... Boys also get influenced .... At least name the video right...if it was written media influencing girls...then I could have listened to her....I came to hear how it influences society not "women". Women are strong, powerful....these people always portray them as victims... And men as the opressers that is the problem.
