The pressure of being perfect is mostly felt by all of us, regardless of gender. To be good at some sport, musical instrument, to achieve good grades. However the pressure of being perfect in the sense of looking like a model is most commonly felt between girls. The evolution of the media has grown immensely that it delivers a certain influence to some extent to the targeted audience. This influence could be taken as positive but as well it could be interpreted in a negative way. I personally feel that now a days because of the media, society has created a perfect image of how a woman should look like. And that the concept of beauty is to be skinny, tall with a flawless face. A lot of people worry for their appearance, how they dress and how they look like. Some people try so hard to look like a celebrity, a model or someone else in order to look pretty. But the actual meaning of being pretty is being yourself, your true self. It does not mean being skinny or fat, being short or tall, having curly hair or straight hair. And I would say that it's alright to sometimes try to copy the style of a celebrity ( even I do it sometimes) but as well keeping your originality, your own style.
