Psychology of Consumer Behavior Introduction The research into how young women perceive their own bodies – in response to constant exposure to media images of un-naturally thin and extraordinarily beautiful females – has been a popular topic for many years. But when it comes to male models that are nearly perfect, handsome and muscular in exactly the right places, there has not been as much attention or research. This paper reviews the potential of – and reality of – dissatisfaction in males based on the media's model images of males.

Introduction Among the more heinous crimes committed by the Nazis in Germany were the so-called medical "experiments" that were conducted using prisoners in the concentration camps. The kinds of "experiments" that were conducted by doctors during the Holocaust went well beyond cruelty and transcended the mere infliction of pain.
