"Tied to the stereotype of beauty? Close

One of the topics I am most interested in the field of psychology covering the field of Stereotypes , understanding it as an ideal collective that is about something or someone. Currently, the Beauty Stereotypes have become a reference point of the image that women should be successful, healthy and happy. The thinness, the color of skin or hair, dress, among other things, seems to be a prerequisite for reaching the coveted beauty.

Everyday is increasingly the number of plastic surgery in Venezuela and the world, to increase bust size or perform a variety of body modifications. Besides being an adult woman who demands it, now becomes fashionable for teenagers breast implants as a gift of 15 years so idealized. In my particular experience, and I'm sure many of you have checked, I have known many instances of teenagers who prefer to change the party or the unforgettable dream cruise, entering a theater and undergo surgery, appearing in the query of surgeons with fear of being different from the rest of her classmates study or being rejected by a society where beauty has become a mass consumer item.

Rodríguez (2006) reports that in recent years, breast augmentation operations in adolescents have gained popularity as a reliable and fairly common solution to increase self-esteem. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons reported almost four thousand (4,000) breast augmentation surgery in adolescents for five (5) years with an annual growth of 25%.

In the case of Venezuelan women stereotypical definition of beauty has a range of sources quite extensive. The stereotypes of beauty in Venezuela marking guidelines have been important over the years. A peculiar characteristic of this country is the great reputation that the Venezuelan women in beauty contests. Girls from very small and begin to dream of a band of Miss Venezuela, and as they grow their ideals become targets for continuing a pattern of almost perfect beauty.

From a very young looking to gain the image of women engaging society promotes them. Achieve legendary 90-60-90 body as appears to be the ideal society Venezuela welcomes and reinforces to the femininity of women.

Due to the need for belonging and acceptance in society, many teenagers prefer to opt for buying beauty patterns from irrational ideals they see mainly the media . Many of the images of women in these media are used, they are actually women who exceed the levels of thinness, such as runway models, or on the other hand, women who by dint of makeup, cosmetic surgery and special programs Photography able to project a very perfect beauty. Riso

W. (2003), notes that "the ads are intended to show how much you move away from the perfect beauty. They offer you a product to achieve this ideal. If you accept passively that model of beauty, you end up thinking you are ugly "(p. 50). Considering it comes Gismero (2003), the dissatisfaction of women to their body weight and general appearance, increases the social pressure to constantly imposes the body that should have, and the absolute belief that women will be successful if they have a particular physical appearance, regardless of values, feelings, home training.

This is a problem that it takes more and more important Psychologists in our profession, and various health professionals, and certainly should start importing also parents and guardians of children and adolescents who desperately need his guidance and affection, as from low self-generated not meet the cognitive schemata of beauty, it can trigger an even bigger problem if the problem is not treated in time, because regardless of self-esteem issues also have different consequences and different levels of severity, for eg depression, anxiety, eating disorders (bulimia and / or anorexia nervosa), and even self-injurious behavior suicide.

The importance of understanding the psychological variables involved in the image of adolescent girls, lets make interventions and change negative aspects associated to them. By working with stereotypes addressed cognitive variables that influence the emotions of the women.

to you parents: Start now to play an active role in the development of their children through constructive criticism and reflection on social models and values, recognize the expectations related to the stereotypes they have and help them to develop and define their own views about what is aesthetically beautiful and far from predetermined social dogmas.
