People Worry about Their Appearance - Daniela


People live in a world where beauty take place in their daily activities. From a young age, children are taught to be attractive. People think that a good looking person is responsible for many advantages such as getting a job or making friends. Therefore, people are obsessed about their body image. There are many causes of why people worry about their appearance and the two of them are influenced by social judgment and self-doubt.
The first cause of why people worry about their appearance is social judgment that are created from making a good impression, media, and friends. First of all, people around the world are making a judgment on the person from the first impression they saw in him. A person always tries to be attractive to make a good impression. Also, people think a lot about their body image and how they could give a good idea about themselves. For example, many people are in downtown, they see someone with a black suit and a nice tie and shoes, so they immediately say he is a business man because of the first impression that man give to the others. In addition, many people have watched a lot of media, and some of them look up to an actor or actress as perfect person. Thus, men see an actor with an excellent body, thin, tall and strong, they try to be like him, and girls also do the same. To give an example, as a child I watched a lot of animation from Disneyland about prince and princesses and how a handsome prince choose the beautiful girl to get married from her. Finally, friends are always around us, we believe them. For a person who listen to his friends will do anything to satisfy them. Also, friends always give a suggestion about what clothes they should wear or what hair cut they need to do. For instance, I often ask my friend to help me choose my clothes, I ask him if I look good in this clothes or not. My friends also give me an advice to be more attractive. As a result, I always asked my friends if what I wore is good or not.
The second cause of why people worry about their body image is self-doubt  which results from our conscience, relationships, and obsession. First, people always judge themselves. Their consciences is not satisfied. For example, they stand in front the the mirror and they told themselves what if I had a small belly or I was taller what would I be if I had blond hire. For instance, I do not think that I am a handsome guy. Sometime I think that I am below the average and I am ugly but that rarely happens. I know that is just a hallucination. Moreover, people think of a good relationships. Each of them has a dream to get married, but they always tell themselves what if my partner would not accept me because I am fat or my friend would not walk with me because I am ugly. As result, people always abscessed about their appearance. As another illustration, each time I approach a girl I feel that she would not talk to me because of my loos. I said maybe if I look cool she will talk to me. Furthermore, some people are too obsessed about their appearance. They tries their best to be perfect. As an example, we saw girls work hard to lose some bounds of weight by doing stress diet which could be dangers for her health. Also, some guys spend a lot of many in clothes and makeup to to be in a good body image.  
In conclusion, people worry about their body image because of two reasons self-doubt and social judgment. I think that people need to be more confident about their body and they should accept what they have. Also, people should look to a person who lost his skin in a fire or someone who born without legs. For example, there are many people wish if they have what you are are bored of.
