I typically read manga which is some sort of Japanese comic book. I love to draw and practically comics are nothing but a collage of drawn pictures put together. The comic typically is fun to read. But every since I started to learn in Women Gender Studies, I realize that the women are like sex figures. Most of the manga women have the biggest boobs ever. I am not a perve but I notice this and started to think. Why are their boobs so big? Is it because this is how women want to be perceived from the perspective of men who read the manga? I don't care for most of the pictures and etc but why most of the women are portrayed this way? I believe it's because that's what sells and therefore if it sells, we as the people will buy it. You can see this in videos and also movies and any other piece of entertainment that is shown on television or magazines and billboards. Not everything has to be about sex nowadays. I remember the days when women were no bigger than a twig, but now, you see nothing but double D’s, a small waist and a big butt to go along with it. This affects the thoughts of our younger youth to think that they need to have better b’s (booty, breast, beauty) instead of just being what they are and accepting the truth. But this cycle will not cease like the cycle of oppression, it will only worse before it gets better.
