Men and women are falling prey to the impossible standards of beauty perpetuated by the media.  Magazine editors admit that virtually EVERY photo in today’s magazines has been modified.  Most local family photographers also report that their clients demand photo retouching as part of the portrait package.  It’s not okay to look “real” anymore.  ”Fake” is the new “real” and it’s driving people to be unhappy with their own and their partner’s appearances.  Body image dissatisfaction among women and girls is higher than it’s ever been.  Addiction to pornography in all it’s form is rampant.  Imagine what would happen if we slowed down our media consumption and spent more time connecting with REAL people in REAL relationships in REAL time.
