sad-women_64Watching slim-trim figure of the beautiful models on television may fill women with inferiority complex and they may start hating themselves that sometimes may also lead to depression and other physiological problems. Researcher Gayle Bessenoff, PhD, has come out with this fact after studying about 112 college women.

Another fact that came to light is that those women who are not so beautiful or have negative image about themselves have more chances of being engulfing by problems such as depression and anxiety.

Women who already have low opinions of their physical appearance are at an even greater risk for negative effects from media images.
