Hmmm, I think this is an area of where the artist needs to ask whether they are perpetuating someone else's idea of how imagery and social context should work or their own. Simply saying that it's on magazines and TV doesn't necessarily coorespond to real life. The media is its own reality and unfortunately a lot of people are participating in the "rules" it projects without questioning them or having a part in their formation...
