Body Image Inflation: Balance is Key?

In this essay, I explore body standards. I ask if body image inflation is a present phenomenon and if it is what an appropriate response would be. Furthermore, if image inflation is a true thing I will go into what I believe causes this inflation of standards, what this standards consist of and why they are directed toward their particular direction; if not I will then answer how. Lastly, I will attempt to provide some kind of unifying synthesis that an individual can walk away with that I consider actionable e.g. how to see the difference between hysterically-induced values and ones that have some kind of objective basis.
