Ms. Deepali A Taide from Mumbai University is working on a topic with her professor Sourabh Ganpatye about the unrealistic image of beauty portrayed by thin models in media and its consequences. The document discusses how advertising since the post-war feminist movement has increasingly relied on images of women that provoke different reactions, and the discourse typically relates to how these images impact how women perceive themselves and their behavior.

15. The post-war feminist movement has largely
coincided with the increasing use of mass
consumer advertising, some of which relies

relates to the impact such images have on
how the women who are subjected to them
perceive themselves, and any impact this has
on their behaviour.
