4. Is it ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like these in a photo? Why or why not?

It is not ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like the ones above. This is because it is an unreal, fake image of what society expects women to look like.

Fashion photography is different than photojournalism because in fashion photography, they are trying to sell beauty and the idea of perfection.

None of these videos are about guys because being the dominant sex in society, they are not pressured nearly as much as women and girls are to look "perfect" in the eye of society. Guys do not have to be "perfect" to sell.
