Women vs. Men

In our culture, we all know that women are extremely hard on how they look. With the models in the magazines, on the billboards, on TV, in every aspect of pop culture, beautiful women have to all be tall and extremely thin. With men, they have to all be chiseled and handsome. In this photo, we see the different aspect of how men and women see themselves when they look in the mirror. In the top picture, it shows the woman in black and white, who is very thin, with her bones showing, but in the mirror she sees an overweight version of herself. In the bottom picture, we have the man portrayed in color, who is not that muscular, but in the mirror he sees himself as a buff, ladies man. This depiction is very interesting because the black and white tells us that she is sort of depressed about how she isn't the "perfect" size even though she clearly is too skinny with her bones showing. The man is in color because he is happy about the way he looks because he sees himself as a catch and as a handsome man that ladies would want.  This image clearly shows how society makes us view ourselves and makes us think that we are never perfect and cannot be okay with ourselves.
