What's the significance of knowng that media is one of the causes of eating disorders?

When we know a cause, we can prevent a problem. That is the golden use of knowing that. Less people can have eating disorders if they don't let those beautiful images they see in the media have so much power inside their minds.

Young men and women can know that those models they see on TV, or magazines, have lots of professional aid before the set or the photographic session, from hairstyle and makeup experts to diets, exercises, and that when they just wake up they don't look that glamourous way.

They have to realize it is OK to be what they are and stop wishing they looked as a supermodel.
I don't know that to be true. The media does not cause one to have psychological imbalances.
I don't know that there is exactly some sort of significance. It's something else to blame.
I imagine if a link were every established it would have little more significance than discoverring that sunlight caused eating disorders. People tend to look at media as something they can change but in reality it is as much a force of nature as a hurricane. It will do what it will do.
bcoz its all these stupid celebs that cause kids and teenagers to feel that they shod look like skeletons like- victoria beckham and nicole richie, kids look up too celebs what kind of example are they setting looking like skeletons other then the fact that kids are guna copy them
The significance of KNOWING anything that causes something is to attempt to fix it. Unfortunately that doesn't happen overnight. The roll models out there know now that what they do (like young beautiful women) can and does have a major impact on young girls. If they KNOW that what they are doing may cause a problem, maybe they can take the personal responsibility to be a good roll model. If you don't know the CAUSES of a major problem, then how are you going to 1) fix or partially fix it, and 2) understand it.
It is sad and frustrating.
