Latina Beauty Standards

Option 2-Latina Beauty Standards

On media, women body image is always a controversy. Either they are closed or far away on reaching the current beauty standard.  On this respond I will focus on Latina beauty standard in the USA media.

As soon as the video reached Latinas beauty, Jennifer Lopez was mentioned as a great example of breaking an image and been capable of reaching success in the United States  regarding her background ethnicity and body shape, yet she was born and raised in America. However, in the video and overall, it seems that people tend to minimize that fact because of her big hips and other great attributes mother nature gave to her. I have seen some of her old movies and I remember she was the Hispanic wedding planner who fall in love with the white lady husband or the maid who found a rich guys, all of these character because she was talented but Latina. I was aware of these issue on Media we still have them-so many Latinas still play this role on movies Sofia Vergara is the funny cute Colombia actress. But how can women overcome this glass?

On my opinion there has been a big advance-now at least with have commercials showing women with different skin colors and fashion designed for different types of bodies not only Victoria secret models as the saying goes. I truly believe women must keep strong and educate themselves to create a different environment specially when they face a world that has strong beauty media standards such as the United States.  No giving up and loving their body and most important hold their dreams strong.
