We are permanently surrounded by unrealistic and fictive images, distributed by today’s media. These images reinforce ideals of beauty, health gender roles as well as living standards, which are difficult or almost impossible to attain.

Particularly younger generations are rather easily influenced by the images distributed by the media; they have even more difficulties in distinguishing between reality and fiction.
