Consider some of the social pressures that you think may shape your behavior and personal image. List the images most commonly associated with the categories or ‘boxes’ you have already listed in Activity 1.
How have you responded to social pressures to conform by adopting an appearance that relates to the categories that you feel you have placed in or have chosen?
The World around us tries to to make us be the perfect image of a human being, the supermodels of the world and that just wont work with me, they expect us to have our makeup perfect, out clothes amazing, our grades perfect, our bodies perfect, everything to perfection all the time. I have responded to this social pressure by just not caring what the world around me thinks. I don't do my makeup or hair for school, I don't spend every waking minute on school work, I eat fast food. I don't do what the work expects of me because frankly, it is better for me to stop pretending to be someone I am not.
Society tries to change us. I have responded by not letting myself be changed for the worse.
