Human Relations and Media

When you talk about people and perception the biggest contributor to it is media and this has a profound impact. How?? Being in a profession which deals with humans and which ask people not to make judgment of people based on appearance ironically I am blessed to be in an environment which exactly does not do that. I was talking with my friend and she was talking about her family and she was commenting how harsh her mother and how bad she is and that a mother should not be like that and all. I thought how does a person know how a mother is supposed to behave??? The following are the major sources
1) Surroundings
2) Neighbors and friends
3) Media

Now why do I highlight media is that in an environment where social interaction is lowering day by day the electronic media is rampaging and portrayals of mothers as larger than life who will sacrifice everything for their kids but I just would reality to be as true as that and it is not ??? Why because every individual is different with different characteristics and they behave different the portrayal of a Chinese to be a martial arts expert or a German to an engineer won’t take us anywhere and the Biggest contributor to it the cinema is bad in India and horrible in Tamilnadu. It is a simple deal you make a good movie which is logical and good we will ensure you don't make a movie again and that is the sorry state of affairs we are forced to cope with unless our people grow over and make their own judgments stand back Sardars you are the butt of jokes stand back blonds you are brains are not given and everyone else
