11 Research Paper-Thesis Statement Examples Within the United States, celebrities and peers influence the way people perceive themselves. For some, poor body image causes depression, eating disorders, and life-threatening health issues. As people continue to compare themselves to others, they are risking their happiness and well-being. The media has influenced people to look a certain way. Insecure people take drastic measures to try to fit the perfect image that is displayed in magazines, on TV, and on billboards across the nation. They alter their bodies with extreme diets, tattoos and piercings, and plastic surgery.
