KIM KARDASHIAN: BAD ROLE MODEL TO TEENAGE GIRLS? by Kalisha Year 7

KIM KARDASHIAN:
BAD ROLE MODEL TO TEENAGE GIRLS?

The greatest reality television personality, the one and only… Kim Kardashian, was blasted by the public for  not being a good role model to young teenagers.

In my eyes the so called  ‘reality tv star’  is not a role model to young teens as most of  her body has been modified which is not something children should be promoted in. Furthermore, earlier this week Kim posted a nude picture, captioning it:

‘When you have nothing to wear LOL’

This caused a lot of aggravation across social media. Many girls tweeted Kim’s pictures saying that she looked amazing and they were very inspired by it, but when parents saw the picture they weren’t so appreciative and took power to twitter, blasting Kim for her disgusting and appalling show of act.

But Kim, being Kim, decided to backlash and got straight onto twitter to tell people what she really thought and that she hadn’t done anything wrong. This shows Kim is a bad role model because she is showing teenagers that they should post inappropriate pictures online and that when people tell you something isn’t a good profile for the public, you should tell them your opinion even if what you are doing is wrong. A woman shouldn't need to show her body in order to get attention. 

As a young student in Year 7, we are very impressionable and will copy fashion and when I see something I like, sometimes I admit that I will impersonate it. In order for me to get anywhere in life or to be in the public eye, I do not want to feel pressured to act controversial. Kim Kardashian is giving women a bad name and may even give some of them a complex.

I believe that men and women should be proud of their bodies but you don't need to be naked in order to do that. I would like to see more women in the public eye who do not have excessively short dresses or cleavage showing for days. There are other women in the world who should be published, Kim isn't the only woman out there.
