thats true, cause nowadays media is considered to be the setter of norm. if media said that this is right then most people believe that taking for granted the truth. if people especially ladies see what is the definition of beauty by media they usually believe that and making their own way to be like that beauty more specifically physiological aspect. and with that if not reached that beauty, unconciously they already suffering from eating disoerder either bulimic or anorexic disorder. i guess it depends on the audience if they will believe all what they see.

What is the danger here is that we, people tend to believe what we see if we see it repeatedly. It's like mind condition approach. What do you think?

yeah, repeatable learnig, plus whats make it more worse, its an audio and visual learning method, thats why it is easy to absorb. most people are audio and visual learner. thus, it really depends on the intellectual capability of the audience whether to believe or not. actually there are so many case study done regarding this topic.
