An Argument for Media Censorship to Combat Body Image and Eating Disorders. There is a clear and identifiable link of causation between the media and the engaging in self-destructive behaviors by consumers that could be easily broken with judicious use of censorship. Overwhelmingly, research demonstrates that there are direct links between images seen on television and in magazines and perceptions of the self among consumers of those images. These connections have been used to prove causation of violent behavior among adolescents who play the ultra-violent video games and, perhaps more insidious and therefore much more destructive, that our body image and, therefore, sense of our physical self, is being dictated to us by the media. It is a simple fact that 15-year old, rail-thin girls are modeling clothes targeted at the 20-35 year-old women's market, this is done so because a 15-year old girl has no curves, no bumps, no flaws, and can be made up to look older. But, she is no woman. Our girls and women are being forced into the false belief that, somehow, they are not good enough to "fit" within this world because they do not look like the ubiquitous waif or like the silicone-breasted stripper-bodies that so many men seem to prefer. It is the purpose of this paper to demonstrate that through a conscientious censorship effort (one that starts with the companies but, like our ultimatum against Iraq, with the promise of swift action if they fail to comply) we can effectively end the epidemic of body image and related eating-disorder problems that has been wracking our culture for generations.
