There are a plethora of images of women and ideas about the body within mass media, but the obsession with youthfulness and physical attractiveness in our society has constructed a paradox of the human being, as getting old is a natural process, which should be embraced rather the hidden, with replacing the elegance and presence of the older women with the images of the young models.
