I agree with you since we only see ourselves through a mirror. We have and never will be able to actually see ourselves.

I agree with you because the first video was kinda weird because I have never seen a dude get suited up like that because he wasn’t good for the paper and they had to like add muscle to him and stuff. The second video was great because the way the people described they self was weird but then when other people saw them and described them it’s was cool seeing them turn happy and stuff .

The first video we watched didn't really make any affect on me since some women also are VERY photoshopped. It has become something popular for this generation. The second video I watched made me realize that we all have one bad image of our self. We believe we aren't "good enough". Meanwhile when someone else describes us, they aren't as harsh as we are. I believe we often pull the worst in ourselves and the best in others because we have seen us on our worst times. We automatically thick that bad time defines us. Meanwhile when we describe someone else, we can't see their worst. So we automatically assume that only we had that bad time. I relate to the second video more because we put standards on ourselves that makes us feel bad. And when it comes to describing myself, I will describe myself how i believe I look, which is at my worst. Meanwhile I can describe some one else and make them look beautiful.

I agree with Jackie because I also believe that we see the worst in ourselves but not in other people because we know all the things no one else knows about us. When we go to point something out about other people, we don't know their worst moments so we make them seem so nice and beautiful.

I agree with Jackie starting from the part where she stated that, "We believe we aren't good enough." I believe that I am not good enough for certain reasons. Nobody should ever feel like they aren't good enough. I also agree with the part where she said,"I believe we often pull the worst in ourselves and the best in others because we have seen us on our worst times." This statement is very accurate. When I have seen myself at my worst times, I just think about myself and get angry that I am this way. It is just amazing how we can describe the best things about others. It is such a good quality to have.

My reaction to watching the video was sad and shocking. To watch the first video and see the model being photoshopped to "perfection" really was shocking and more or less empowering. It shows that even models which are viewed as the most beautiful of the beautiful, are not perfect. I shows that no one is perfect and no one is perfect enough for the beauty expectations people put on us. I believe that we all often times are willing to point out the flaws in ourselves and point out the best in others is because everyone views themselves differently. People's self-esteem is never really high and even if it is, they can still point things out that they hate about themselves than point out what they love about themselves. I can relate to the video shown because if i were to describe myself the way I see myself, I wouldn't seem like myself to other people as suppose to Kennedy or Elvis or Ricardo describing me. I would seem like a different person of me. It just goes to show the point of view of other people versus your own.

I agree with Mariana I feel like I have a lot of confidence but there are those days.Where you feel like scum of the earth.I also feel like many beauty standards come from urban people.Also body standards come from black people and I feel like we were abused for our body and now every wants fuller lips,big booty,and tanned skin.And if we don't have that now we aren't pretty because some of us aren't all thick.People see us as sexual objects that have no value besides sexual appeal.For example it is the root of editing bodies and a point that " Thee Mademoiselle" made is that black women only get represented as beautiful is when we are half naked baby oiled up and thick.Nobody talks about this and it needs to be said.(P.S Mari you are the one of the most beautiful people I know and i truly don't deserve your friendship~♡ )

I agree with Mariana because she said even models are not perfect and society want us to look like them even though that’s not them.I think sometimes it’s ok to chase something that’s said to be impossible like a 100% on a math test but for a human body it’s not ok to chase something that’s almost naturally impossible to do.

I strongly agree with Mariana because she points out some key things that are actual facts. People actually don't know what beauty is because they haven't seen the real beauty in people and on people. People judge people to much to so then that actual person is then putting themselves that way. What people need to do is not listen to others but, listen to themselves because their own words are more powerful then others. What I'm trying to say is to listen to your self first and then other people but, take your own word more into heart than others.

The first video that we watched, which was the photoshopping guy, it didn't really stand out to me. But the second video we watched kind of hit hard for me because other people might think you are the most beautiful person ever when you think you are the ugliest ever. We saw the pictures of the people and I noticed a big difference in the drawings. The people described themselves as not their best but when other people described them we saw the picture was way more beautiful than the other one. We often see the worst in ourselves because we may not like somethings, or if not anything, about our physical looks but we point out the best in others because we want them to feel good about their looks and them overall being fantastic. I relate to the second video because I myself think I'm not that good looking. I just don't see the way that other people look at me and how they feel about me.

My reaction to the vidoe is that in the signs in the streets some arent even real there photoshop. We see the worst of us and point out the good in others because we have this thing that we compare each other and that you see the good in them because we havent seen what they got through kinda like the first impression. I relate to the 2nd vidoe because i compare myself allot to others because other people are popular and im not so i see the difference between me and others.

My reaction to the videos was that I wasn't surprised because it's common and well known and I'm informed about it.It's normal for us to be insecure.And to cope with that we edit our bodies for acceptance and people admiring us and that's not good way to help you have self love and others love.We are way more beautiful than we seem.I feel like we see the worst in us and see the best in others because we as society strive to be better and the best we can be at whatever we do.So the media can make us feel like we are not be best looking and show use someone that is supposedly 'better' we feel insecure.And it can also tie into money because if you have have money the more insecure you are the more you will spend to be 'pretty'.I can relate but i feel like i have a lot of self love for myself but there are those days.

My reaction to what I saw was very shocking and I was very disappointed because many of us don’t really think we are beautiful. We make others feel better than our selfs because we don’t wanna be rude or don’t wanna make them feel like us.well at least for me in my perspective. I relate because many people now a days use filters to make our selfs look better looking in social media. Either to attractive someone or thing and it’s something mostly everyone does.

The first video I saw with the male model didn’t really have an affect on me nor a reaction.Nowadays filters, editing photos, or taking hundreds of pictures to find the one you like is something not only seen with models but with kids.The kids are trying to achieve something that’s sometimes physically impossible naturally.One question I would like to ask any model is if they are really happy with people changing their body, if they are ok with people changing what could be looked as beautiful but the company says it’s not a good look on someone.The second video also didn’t give me a reaction because the way people describe themselves as is mostly talking about their “flaws”.I have heard many times people point out the worst in them.With social media it has stressed and pressured young people especially to be anxious about how people look at them.They worry more about what others say than what their self value is.When people look at the mirror the flaws are the ones that stand out because they are so worried about them being pointed out.To get rid of the bad habit doesn’t mean you have to call yourself a 10/10 but you just need to acknowledge the flaws to move on and the “good traits” will pop out more vividly.We often see the worst in ourselves but see the best in other because in this case beauty doesn’t have a definition because it can mean one thing to me while another to someone else.Also since people think that they are not good looking they want to be anyone else but themselves.If your self value is low then you’d want to be anyone else even if you don’t know what the other person might be called for their flaws.I can’t really relate with the videos shown other than just watching it happen everyday on social media.I acknowledge my flaws in a positive way I wouldn’t feel my self value drop when I say my flaws they are things we can’t change so instead of hating them for a life time and wasting time on them we need to find a better perspective and find perfection in the imperfections.Instead of saying my traits with a sad voice or being anxious about someone drawing me like in the second video I would be having a sort of happier tone.I don’t need pictures of me having filters or being edited because I would know that’s not me.

My reaction to the first video is that it's weird how much they change about the person's body and the things they see need work on. Like things that I wouldn't have noticed, they changed, and it just really shows what society thinks what "perfect" is. It was crazy to see the difference in sketches of the people in the second video. We often see the worst in ourselves, but point out the best in others because we see the ways that other people are pretty, but often don't see it on ourselves. I relate to the videos shown because I feel like if I were to tell somebody to sketch me out, I would talk about more of my bad qualities. I see the things that are worse about me more than the things that are good, which is why I think I could relate to the people in the second video.

I could relate to the video based on how I bring myself down and try to compare myself to other and point out my flaws.

My reaction for the first video was not very surprising because everybody is used to photoshop now a days. Society has made it be considered normal. That's bad. As for the second video, my reaction to the video was very intriguing. I wonder why people put themselves down when describing themselves. I don't like the fact that most people do that. To be honest, I don't know why we do that, but I know why I do that. For one, I don't think that I am special. There are too many people just like me in this world. I put myself down so much. I have gotten used to it. That's pretty bad. And the reason that I point out the best in others, is to prevent them from having the same mentality that I have. I don't want them to put themselves down and become sad. It sucks to put yourself down. I don't want that same feeling for others. I can only relate to the second video. Both, the video and I show that people put themselves down. I do that. I am trying not to do that. Also, the video and I want to prevent people from putting themselves down by showing the people the good things that other people describe about them. Lastly, the message that the video is showing is an amazing. I still cannot believe that it was by Dove, but whatever.

When I saw the videos it made me feel kinda sad because people mostly describe themselves as unattractive but others described them as beautiful. I think that people nowadays believe what other people say about them like if they are called ugly or unattractive they get turned down and start thinking negatively about themselves. I think that people think they are unattractive because sometimes they are really with themselves but sometimes it could be used for attention or many people don't believe so much in themselves and give up.I kinda relate to this video because I also see myself as an unattractive person but I don't think that others see me that way either.

When I saw these two videos I felt sad and really surprise. I say this because in the first video it shocking and surprising on having much this man that is a "model" is not perfect enough that the editor of the picture still need to photoshop and edit it instill it perfect. It is sad that society has projected that a model is the most perfect human bean on Earth but in reality it a lie because people are photoshopping the picture to the ideal perfect man. The second video was sad because it sad seeing women describing themselves so ugly and picturing the worst but one someone else describes them it not what they say. It sad how no people projected themselves as these hideous human beans. I think we often see the worst in ourselves but point out the best in others people because is way easier for us to point out the worst thing in us but hard to point out the best thing about us. Also, we point out the best in others way faster because we might want what we see in them but don't realize we have that inside of us already. I can relate to this video because I tend to describe myself in the worst way possible and don't describe my best things about myself because it can be more difficult then people think.

My reactions to what I saw in the first video is that models on commercials and advertisements are not always what they look like. My reaction on the second video is that people describe themselves very harshly, sad, and negative while other people describe others with their first impression. We see the best in others because of the first impression point of view and also you don't know what they are going through so if you do tell them how you see them they will feel a certain type of way. Seeing the first impression happens to always be a good thing in society and media. We see the worst in our selves because we actually know what we are going through and when we describe our selves to other people we always start with the negative part of us instead of the positive. I can relate to these videos by not having personal reasons but, by seeing others. Other people can relate to these videos by always wanting themselves to look another way instead of loving themselves. Another way they can relate to these videos is by putting themselves down instead of up. In the second video people describe themselves very negatively instead of positively because that's what people do and what society makes them do.

I strongly agree with you Brison because society has made us really think in certain ways and it’s messed us all up in a way. Maybe not all but most, still these models have shown us that we all are different than what the media decides to do with these models. We have so many things to blame when it comes to how we view ourselves but the way you put it says it all. Society really does a lot when it comes to our state of mind and how we act.

My reaction to what I saw in the videos was really weird and like awkward in the first video because they were photoshopping the picture and there body parts the second video was kind of sad because the women and men were getting drawn and people were also describing them and it was really weird because the guy would kind of draw it like them. We often see ourselves in the worst because we think we are not good and we talk bad about ourselves and can never say nothing good because we feel like we are not but no one is perfect but we just have this mindset of this. This is what I think why we see the best and point it out on other people. I can relate to the videos because I always say I’m not good enough and think negative and want to edit my pictures but I don’t but also because sometimes people describe me and people draw pictures about me and how I look! This is what I believe and how I can relate to the video!

what I thought about the two videos was wow. wow or it's crazy. the first video was really weird because the model did not look like the picture all the extras they add that are not real. The seconded video was a wow too. like the way they describe them self looks ugly. but the way the other person describe them was wow. we are our worst enemy. The seconded video is totally me because I see the worst in me and the first video I don't really modify my face on my foots but I do sometimes and I like that version better.

When I saw the first video I was in shock because the before and after of the male model it looked like two completely different people. The second video was completely different and made me feel sad because the way the women described themselves is completely different than how they actually looked. I think we often think we see the worst in ourselves but point out the best in others because we don't want people to see who we actually are. I relate to the videos shown because there are many things I would like to change about myself and I probably describe myself worse than other people would.

In the first video about the male, my reaction was normal because it’s nothing new to me to see people editing their pictures especially since I see it on ads all the time. However in the second video, I was shocked and aware at the same time. I know that I speak down on myself a lot and call myself ugly a lot but like the video mentioned, others might see different. I was shocked because I never really realized how much pain I’m put on myself just by thinking I’m ugly or speaking down on myself. I think we see the worst in ourselves because we see ourselves everyday or look in the mirror and expect a change. We also compare ourselves a lot and some people wish to look like others and since we don’t look like them, it makes us feel ugly. We also point out the best in others because we don’t see their face as much as we see ours so when something’s different about them we notice right away. I definitely relate to this video shown because I’m always calling myself ugly and others say I’m not and I’ll think that they are just saying that to be nice but sometimes their really telling the truth. Lastly, I might also use filters just to make myself look better like the male did in the first video.

After i saw the video i was only shocked because of the difference between the pictures of the pictures the artist drew. We point the worst in us because we've looked for the worst in us and we keep noticing it and just notice how others dont have it. I guess i could relate in a way were i tend to do certain things so others cant notice.

My thoughts on these videos are confused and crazy,why because it’s crazy how people fake stuff like in pictures you all nice and look good because you photoshop or edited your pictures then in person your different it’s sad how some people don’t like who they are they are shy and scared to show people who they really are but I mean you should open up to people from who you really are then just catfishing them with all your non you pictures.

We point out the worst things in ourselves because we think people are going to care but they don't. We are all human. I can relate to this because I don't like to leave my messy, so I always try to fix it.

To me the first video was sad to me because the men had to get turned into a whole different body. I didnt feel that they needed to do that they just could have told him his body wasnt good enough for the newspaper or whatever it was. The second video was great because when the people descibes there self and then when they talk to other people and then they described them they came out as a whole different person.

My thoughts on both videos is that the first video talk about editing a man body so it could look so perfect and look like model. But I feel upset because why you have to edit a man edit that’s not right. The second video talk about people always being yourself. That video make me happy because talks always being yourself and be the best person you can be.

My reaction to the two videos I saw is that I was surprised and I though it was weird. I thought this because I was surprised on how the ways they describe themself compared to how other people describe them. Also on how much they change about a person on a picture so they can be on a magazine or something. I think that people mostly point out the worst in themself because they focus on what they don’t like about themself so they are not seeing what they would like about themself.

My reaction to the videos was sad because it was almost disappointing on how much they have to edit a man's body in order to fit the standard of beauty.I could relate to the dove video. It is true that other people don't see the flaws we see in our selves.We describe ourselves a s ugly and fat but other people see something else. We often point out the best in others because we may not think of our selves good enough to meet the standard of beauty.So we rather point out the best in others rather than our selves.

In the first video we watched it didn't really appeal to me but did show me what I see on tv or in magazines are photo shopped.The second video really showed me how a person looks at themselves.We judge ourselves to much and think the worst but I think thats the case because we notice and pay attention more.Also because we are so hard on ourself and feel like we have to criticize our selfs and people see with one look all the beautiful things and that video showed exactly that. I relate to this video because when I look at myself in the mirror or see pictures of me I criticize my self and focus on all the bad thing instead of the things that make me pretty and what stands out especially on my face.

I didn’t get the first video of the boy. The second video was really interesting because it showed how women describe their self differently than how someone else would describes them. We point out the bad things about us because we’re insecure but point out the good things about them because we’re probably jealous of something good they have and we don’t.

My reaction to both vidoes were suprised. The first video was shocking how a male model had to be perfected by a computer. The second video was also suprising because people were describing themsleves negative while other people don't see their flaws. People often point out the worst of themsleves because they are more critical about themselves than other people. For the reason of people mosly see the bad things about themselves than the good things. I relate to these videos because I mostly look at the bad things about myself more than the positive things.

I believe beauty is within but most people judge by looks and most of society believes we have to cover our outside beauty in order to fit in. My reaction to the video was shocked because we hide our natural beauty to be more appealing. I think we point out the best in others is because we probably are insecure about that part of ourselves and we deeply admire it on someone else and we want it also because we don’t really “love” ourselves. I relate to the video because I don’t really have self confidence I kind of ignore it and I admire other people more than myself.

The videos that we watched didn’t really surprise me because it is something that we see almost everyday. I just got kinda happy for those people who really believed they did not look anything like how they saw themselves as. It really is a good feeling when you know that people are able to see the beauty in people even if they don’t see the beauty in themselves. Which lead into why we point the best in others but the worst in ourselves. I believe that we point out the best in others because our insecurities see what we could only wish to have and see it in other people leaving us to feel like our beauty is nonexistent and only other people are able to exist with it. Now I don’t want to get too personal with this question but I relate a little too much to the videos shown. I’ve always tried to be positive or at least look pretty positive but lately I’ve fallen into this deep hole and it was filled with all my insecurities and I believed that I just didn’t look like the person I’m supposed to be. I felt as if no one would ever want to look at me because of how I looked. But I finally had my best friend to tell me that I’m more than I think I am. It helped a little but I feel like two people and both are affecting how I think of myself. It’s pretty tough to live with it I can make it through at least for another day until it’s all over.

My reaction to the video was sad and mad and shock because they are dining thing to the bony and how they describe themself was just sad. We do This cause we choose to tell ourself that I ugly or no one is going to like me but when we see other people we see them as this perfect person and so oh he cute or she pretty and the have a great body and more great thing about them and when a friend says something and then you say I wish was like that but the friend says oh no your pretty but you just don’t see that in you and but love yourself for that and you are be who you are and love yourself. I relate to the video cause I always talk about how ugly I look and what I may look like when I am older and making me fell like I and not the person I am to be when other people talk about me and how they describe to be and to me handsome and a great person.

My reaction in the video is indignant. I feel that it is unfair for any beautiful person, which is everyone, to feel that way. It makes me upset to see people think so little of themselves. It made me feel more calm and happy when they started to realize that they are more beautiful to themselves then they think. I also appreciate how the soap company Dove made the video for a campaign about loving yourself. It’s lovely how the company for soap presented this idea and went about it so well. It’s a campaign that many people can relate with, as body image and self-love is often not represented well in media. It’s either not liking yourself, or nothing changing when you see a self-beauty campaign.The video made me feel overall content, as the reveal that the peoples’ description of themselves were wrong. That everyone will always be beautiful, and you can’t say not because if you find someone ugly, then someone else would find that person the most beautiful person they’ve ever seen. It goes the same for yourself. Like in the video, you might see yourself and feel disgusted, but someone else might see you and love how you look. It’s starts with self-love, and self-love starts with accepting your flaws and moving on. Because maybe, your flaws are you overthinking after having the same face for your whole life. The reason why we talk ourselves down is because we have had our face for so long, and we have the power to find more and more flaws. The other faces that have been in our life as long as ours, we also might unconsciously do the same. You could be right about what you see, or you might be wrong. After all, it’s just things that you see. You control your extent of your own beauty, and other people can only make comments on it. Also, how you feel about your beauty can show how your state of mind is. It can reveal how self-aware someone is of their imperfections. There are people who hold their beauty in words, and feed their thoughts to others, telling them that they are perfect in their eyes. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and the beholders often give positive comments because what the other person has is what they want. The heart loves who it loves, and it’s really only up to you if you’ll allow your heart to love yourself. There are only 4 ways people could see us. Your family, the ways your friends see you, how strangers see you, and how you see yourself. How come so many see us as beauty but ourself? We aren’t nice to ourselves at all, and that often is taken out on our looks. We hold the flaws for ourselves while others hold their view of beauty on us. It isn’t about others convincing us to love ourself, it’s more of finally accepting that if you think you’re ugly, then your okay. If it makes you accept then it’s okay. The less you worry about yourself the less the happiness will stay. I relate to telling the beauty in others.

My reactions when I saw both videos was in a bit of shock but I kinda knew about these things. In the first video, a man was getting photoshopped into someone who looks beautiful or what society thinks a man should look. They had to add muscles and take away some of their fat that they had and sharpen their jaws to make it look like something we want. But the man didn't look like the same person he did after they have photoshopped him. And when it was done, they put that man on signs because it look better than the actual person. In the second video, people were asked to describe their face. Many people didn't look the same after they saw the picture. They described themselves with more of their negative features than their positive features. Then others were asked to describe them and they said more of the positive things in them. The people were shock to know that people think they look a specific way when they described them. We often see the worst in ourselves but point the best in others because we want to look like the best person to ourselves. We see someone with a good body and then we see ours and it makes us feel bad that we don't have what they have. We point out what we want to make us look beautiful. I relate to the videos shown because I feel like I should look like the way others do. We like to edit our photos to make them look good and to take away all the bad stuff in the original photo. I can see the bad stuff about my physical appearance but others don't. Others look for the good features on me maybe because they feel bad they don't have that feature. I feel like seeing the worst in me is the right way to make other people feel good about them selves. Many people want to look a specific way so we do anything to make that happen even if it includes to change our looks or the way we act. We want to be the people who society expects us to be.

My reaction to the first video was Suprised. I always see posters and ads with models and notice how great and fit they look. I know photoshop shop exists but I never rally payed attention that what we see everyday isn’t always real. In the video they photoshopped his while body to make him look the way society wants men to look. He look like a man but after they made him look even more manly and like a man. They changed his muscles and his jaw and much mire to resemble “the way men are suppose to look like”. It honestly seemed sad how in order to look like a man you have to fit into the stereotype of having muscles and a sharp jaw.In the second video, reaction was sad and suprised I felt those things because of the message the video sent. Its crazy how people think of themselves. We grow up thinking the negative in ourselves because of society and how each gender is suppose to look like. When it came to the people having to describe themselves they said what they thought about themselves. When it came to how people described them, they described what they saw. When the artist revealed the difference in the pictures to what they individually those got of themselves to what other people saw it was insane. Its crazy what negativity can change the way one thinks of themselves and make them feel bad about themselves. They all smiled seeing at what other people saw in themselves.

Sad because it very sad that those people saw them selves as ugly and not good enough. Shocked because it was crazy how you can see your self as a whole complete different person other then what others see. I think it is easier to point out the good things about another person because its not you and you and you then you start to compare your self and begin to give your self negtive feed back

My reaction from these two videos surprised me and inspired me. What I see in people is when people (for some people) like “what if” in a negative way. When someone asks another person about you of how they think of you, they always see positive by looking at you first. When they say these things, you start to realize that you are more beautiful or more special than you think. We always see the best in other people because we think that other person is better than what you think of yourself. I don’t know how I could relate to this video but all I can say is that when I think again about myself and what other people say about me, I start to think better of myself. The models in the magazines are always photographed to make people more interested to what the person is sponsoring to. They don’t have to worry about how they see themselves as long as they have great beauty.

In the first video I was shook because I thought that for the picture the guy or the model only had makeup on but I didn't know that they actually photo shop the body. They also covered up some imperfections just to attract people and see that it looks good on, and hoping people would buy there jeans.In the second video I was mind blown because now I realize that people describe themselves in the most horrible way possible but when someone else see's you its different. the second video also made me think that this society isn't all about judging someone's appearance.We often point out the worst in ourselves because we all have flaws and think they look ugly on ourself and that the flaws are what people only see and identify you. We point out the best in others probably because they might seem "perfect" and you may think they are better then you or you just want to compliment them. I relate to the videos because in order for me to take pictures of myself I have to you a filter cause without it all you see are stuff that aren't that attractive. I also been called "pretty" or "beautiful" and the way I see myself doesn't fit in with those words but I now see that people describe me differently t

I thought that it is pretty true of what people think what we are suppose to look like. Also that how we look at ourselves and we don’t appreciate how we look. We do that since we point the little flaws that we have and try to make ourselves perfect. Which makes us self conscious and admire how others look. Yeah I relate to the the videos because I know that I see myself differently than others since they see me more than I see myself.

When I saw the videos that were shown to us I was interested. It’s very sad to hear how little people think of themselves, when in reality what they think they look like might not be how others see them. I think we as humans point out the worse in ourselves, because we see our imperfections every day, eventually we get sick of them and we put ourselves down emotionally. I do this occasionally too, I point out the worse in myself, but now I think I’ll try to stop because maybe that’s not what others think.

When I saw the videos I was pretty impressed. The reason why is because its crazy what photoshop and technology can do to change your image and make you seem like someone you aren't. What makes us point out the good in others but only the bad in ourselves is what society tells us. For example, most influencers are mostly famous because of their image, and if we cant relate automatically we drag ourselves down. The reason why we can relate ourselves with the video is because we always point out all the bad and we aren't optimistic with how we are. So when others gives us a compliment it can be hard to accept it.

My reaction to the videos is that they say a lot of how we have expectations on beauty. I think we see the worst in us and the best in others because we think that others can see the worst in us and we try to hide what we believe they see. I can relate to the video because I want people to see the best me possible, and I don't to have people see what I consider are my flaws. Even though I am becoming more confident in myself I still want to seem like my best me.

My reaction was with it being normal since it wasn't new to me and that in many parts this would be something that I would think would happen since other things are like this example food also in the other video it also the same since we would usually say what better about someone then our self. The reason for this though is because of how we see people and our self we can tell our self many thing but to someone it sometime harder also I think that we would rather not say our best instead giving it to someone else. What I can relate to is where people let the worst about themselves but let the best about other this is other I do often try not be positive about me.

Both videos show how people see themselves and others. My reaction to the videos were very different. The 1st video of the boy on was confusing it didn’t give much of a message besides that society has standards and if you don’t met them you have to change. While the girl one had more of a message as so how you always point out the worst in yourself while others see the best in you. Usually we find the worst in ourselves because we don’t want to seem conceited and or we don’t think we are good enough to find things that make us not “perfect” and I think we find the best in others due to not being able to see it in ourselves. I can relate to the first one because me myself and other always except perfection from me and I strive for it and when I don’t succeed I try to fix it even if it means having to fake something else. The 2nd video I can relate to it because most people point out the little things that make me good and “attractive” etc while usually I point out my flaws.
