TED TALKS ON FASHION

Cameron Russell is an international model. She has appeared in multiples magazines, for exemple Vogue, and she has worked for brands like H&M, Visctoria's Secret, etc. 
She thinks that the the appearance isn't everything. 

Principally, the model says that the image is superficial because the picture that we see of the models is retouched. She says image is a superficial thing and adds that the we see of her, she is not really her because we see what the photographers wants us to see. All the photos are retouched. At the beginning of the video she changes her clothes because she wants to give another image to the people who are watching her.
The model says that every part of the people aren't happy with their body because all of them want to have the fabulous body of the model. The percentage of girls who are not comfortable with their body is very high.

I agree with all of the arguments that says the model. We live in a superficial world. She says that image is powerful and superficial and it's totally true.

IS DEATH A TABOO?

In our culture, Western culture, talking about death is considered a taboo. 
It is absolutely true because when we go down the street and we hear the conversations, people never talk about death. If we analyze our discurses we will see that never speak about it or we avoid talking about death. 

I strongly believe that death is considered unpleasant, bitter and especially painful. People know that they must die but do not want to think, try to forget it and try to live as if death does not exist. It is very painful to lose someone that we love. 

Another reason is that everyone is born knowing that someday will die, it is a natural fact. Personally I think that we, all the people in general, do not speak about death because we fear it. We are afraid of death because we do not now what we will find after it. Many people have talked about it and have elaborated theories, but they have been not confirmed. 

It is clear that causes us a sense of uncertainty. We do not know what will happen when we die and that disturbs us. In addition, it makes us afraid and respect it. Not only that, death causes a lot of pain for people who suffer the death of an acquaintance. But certainly, an undeniable fact is that we will die one day.
