I recently read an article called  Gen Y’s Ego Trip Takes A Nasty Turn by Larry Gordon and Louis Sahagun is about the positive and negative effects of narcissism . According to the article narcissism is influenced by the media thats surrounds today youth. Research studies disagree whetherr narcissism is a personal problem or if generation Y is only trying to be successful in life by becoming what they see presented by the media. Some say that narcissism has a positive side on the other hand they say its all negative. Narcissism yet is still unexplainable because it creates and affects different personalities in today’s youth.

For example the reason why we have seen so many teen girls with health disorders is because these girls have been influenced by the media. That shows that  being a size  2 now is considered  to be fat  (obesed). So these girls get so obsessed with having the model type .When their bodies still have not fully developed to make these sudden changes that have or will affect their lives as well as bodies. So  media does have an affect on us meaning everyone not just Generation Y but others as well.
