Wow, I would have never looked at it in that light. I feel sorry for the lower-class models. Hopefully, they will get the opportunity to rise in the ranks.
Well the topic of this post is quite in my interest!i love to read such stuff!The video is nice!
I didn’t realize that models don’t have a lot of power and only has success if so many people look at them in that way. I didn’t realize that their jobs are not stable as well.
Exactly the same as young budding musicians in the music industry. The Arts are a hard thing to grasp for a normal person that’s why to do it you have to have an extreme passion for it and not just money or fame. Great post 🙂

True. Many people do look @ models as objects. I was at a fashion show last year where the presented the latest, most fashionable mini dresses in new york – the models were objects, designed to present the dresses, not the other way around. I believe if the model is not the subject, then @ work, it sure is an object, or at least a medium.

The authors combine classic theories of sociology with contemporary research to show readers how sociological explanations can give us insights into our own lives, as well as reveal the connections between our experiences and the wider social world.
