= MEN'S HEALTH = Magazines such as "Men's Health" show only handsome, muscular men in their articles. This can have a bad effect on boys who see these magazines, especially if they are overweight. These magazines make other men feel like they aren't as good as the men in these picture because they feel they are not musclely enough or handsome enough which oftn leads them to depression.

You can avoid being negatively affected by these magazines by:
 * ignoring what they say you should look like (eg. muscular)


 * ignnoring what they say you shouldn't look like


 * not paying too much attention to the cover models as they spend large amounts of money on making themselves look good and much of what you see has been altered digitally(eg. photoshopped)

__Photoshopping

__ __Largely photoshopped image above__ Photoshopping is used to change skintone, bodyshape, wrinkles etc. Many magazines use this on the pictures of their models to trick viewers into thinking what they see in the pictures is natural when really it has been altered to look better.
