Women are severely misrepresented in today's media seeing as thought the main idea of the usage of women in media is sex appeal. For some time the world (specifically men in advertisement projects) has seen women as their gendered stereotypes instead of valuing them as human beings. The media objectifies women in ways that are quite sexist all for the name of selling a product to those who that women may appeal to.
It is as though these major networks have convinced both men and women that women can only be valued for their appearance which causes teen girls to strive for a look that is both sexist and impossible seeing as most of the beauty and sexual appeal isn't very present before Photoshop. Even in politics women are constantly being scrutinized for their appearances and if they behave like "proper" women, both factors having almost nothing to do with elections or politics. Misrepresentation of women in media has been a reoccurring situation and it is time to leave it behind and embrace women not for sexuality but for shill and perseverance.
