Gender Stereotypes in Media

There is the first wave of feminism which was during the 19th and early 20th century which mainly focused on the inequality of women and the lack of voting rights. The second wave of feminism was in the 1970's and 1980's pertaining to women's liberation in civil rights. There after continued the third wave of feminism which was in the 1990's and after which then characterized the sexual agency. With this movement there was a consequence in gender stereotyping in which media promoted the idea body type in which eating disorders and body altering surgeries were becoming more common. With the effect of media on our society today, is the need for perfection in our bodies becoming more of a demand and closely examined due to small imperfections?!?!?!
