Why are teenagers influenced by the media?
To an extent everyone is, but in particular women, because after reading magazines with the skinny celebrities, watching television, they want to be like their role models, and to do this they allow themselves to be influenced by airbrushed pictures in magazines and in the media. There are more magazines on offer to women, and quite possibly more information is published for women because publishers realise that it will be the women who are most interested in their image.
