  1. I think human life if it is more superficial because some inventions like telephones, computers and social networks have done with the interrelationship between people.
    many businesses are realized telephonically and does not allow personal contact between the persons concerned. but on the other hand, the phones have saved lives, help to optimize the working time in companies, and has kept in touch with people who perhaps could never be seen personally.

  2. I think the world evolve their technology has made people more superfiaciales because the social networks and technology that go hand in hand has hurt us. before women and men were undressing for money and for necessity and now do it for "like". and also the more time passes people come out with much less clothing to show their bodies to draw attention being and show how shallow they are. so I think the contemporary period if we are to echo more superficial

  3. I think that the contemporary era has made human beings are more superficial, because life today is based on trade and commerce includes models that are perfect, but it’s known that much of that perfection is only by technology and programs like photoshop does wonders and makes a nice body is not so spectacular.
    Trade creates more business where what sells is the body of a woman or a man not only the product being marketed.
    And that will continue the business, want to have everything that is sold, it makes everyone become more superficial, since what matters most is to be beautiful for a consumer society of fiction, is thin, and be accepted by this the same world that is influenced by the commercial.

  4. I think so, because now in this contemporary era every the human are pending technology that is in constant evolution forgetting most important things as family, friends, wife, children.
    We are in a world of changes, in a globalized world where if we are unwilling to change we would be in a world without opportunities. It is important to rescue the basics of humanity beginning to live in a better world with more love, integrity and respect.

    change of opinion every day thanks to technological advances,
    we have the perfect man and perfect woman wing.
    My opinion is that we have more personality

  6. Yes, I believe that all the world is more superficial because we live in an era that requires us to have the best technologically, financially and even emotionally and leads us to compete for this in front of others.
    The superficiality is being imposed from a very young age for many parents and this leads us to grow up with this idea in the head so superficial rededicating ourselves. Wait no think more in to be superficially becouse take us to our destruction.

  7. I think if it has more surfaces due to the diminishing interaction between people as chats and phones have made this happen and is not as personal a relationship if not more for the environment. Although as has also greatly facilitated the search for jobs or remote conferencing for people who have the ability to make a trip or also known parties and people from other parts of the world had not before that time. It has also made people more to fix the material things that a person's feelings or good intentions that have.

  8. for me the contemporany age change the world in form drastic because for people have used the technology to their advantage, and ignoring the other persons.
    for example projects of countries developed that used a others countries less developed to explote their resourcesand build new things and improve their form of life.
    in our country you can observe teens How they are disconnected from the world in their computadres and prefer to have a chat conversation person to person.
    in conclusion this is a world materialist where only live the persons with power.

  9. I think that in this time the society has been responsible for increasingly convertit humans in superficial people, the technological advances in communication by internet, movil telephones, plastic surgery, beauty treatments, make that every time people are most outstanding of its physical and to get the ultimate in terms of technological devices is currently the most people put aside their family, friends and all you have around you for always being "glued" to your phone or your computer.

  10. I think that humanity has become very superficial, because no one cares about the other people, the people care more for themselves, and to achieve their goals without caring those affected. Although there are many people that if they are interested the rest of the people, and care about the problems of others, and working for the security of the others in the case of cops or fire and medical, but the vast majority of people in this contemporary era has become too superficial.

  11. I think the contemporary era, has not made superficial to humans because it has allowed people evolve according to the changes which occur in the world. An example of the contemporary era of globalization is a factor that has made the lives of people in all countries change, because it has helped people to exchange ideas, adapt to technological progress, to evolve the culture and have economic and social exchanges with the rest of the world.

    on the other hand, was talking in particular about contemporary economic change that occurred in this period, we can talk about the industrialization of the economy, which is an important factor because this has been the emergence of new inventions to the satisfaction of needs of individuals with regard to the changes that was brought to contemporary social life.

  12. It is absolutely true that society increasingly demands that people are more superficially perfect, either physically or materially, physical appearance has taken more importance and more and more people flock to plastic surgeries and beauty treatments to look good to others, and materially as technological advances have made ​​people compete to have the best cars, computers, cell phones, etc, and spend more time thinking about such superficial things in their families, friends and other things society is superficial.

  13. yes, In this new era we face a situation where magazines, television, catwalks, contests almost daily sold the prototype of a woman, perfect man, is for this reason that today's operating rooms are full of people who attend the intention to eliminate defects that interfere with your body, or add what they say they need, forgetting their true essence.
    the fashion, technology,the society, in a way have become a necessity for human beings, values​​, humility and essentially have definitely passed into the background.

  14. I consider that effectively the people today is more superficial, because the feelings every time are not important in the live styles of the people. Today the drug addiction, the sex, the money, the physical beauty, are the pillars of a society superficial. An example of the above, is the love. The people do not love the feelings. Today, with more technology, with more science, we should be more human and less superficial, in a world where poverty abounds, and where we need think more in the being of each person, that we have materially or what we are physically .

  15. yes because;
    The events of this era have been marked by accelerated changes in the economy, society and technology, now it seems we are using the historical-cultural category (contemporary period) beyond the universe of meaning, as a notion whose denotative and connotative content has already been spilled in the course of everyday discourse,
    Overcoming the Enlightenment ideal of progress and optimistic confidence in the capabilities of human beings.....I personally think that every day is this bad man accustomed to being lazy unmotivated.

  16. I think this was if we made ​​more superficial because there is much liberalism in both men and women being noted more in women because there are no taboos at all, are no longer valued and respected as before, because they want to match them. We are in an age of materialism and do not accept the body as God gave it, we are in a constant competition to want to display the body and see us with the perfect curves, a clear example is that since girls from before the fifteenth want to get silicone in the breasts to become part of fashion, and even more. The men are concerned about both their physical appearance that many already seem to homosexuals, I'm not saying it's bad to care about their appearance, just not so intimidated.

  19. i think about the contemporary era made human beings superfucial in the sense that we are forgetting the really importan of the life, so for my, the really important is feel and fun with the life, but whitout disturb others persons. the superficial persons save your true emotion and personality, hiding your feeling in the material things, i belive that we, human being must express free to the other persons without discriminate your culture and your color skin, only listen to thinks. good?

  20. I think if the contemporary era has become more superficial people, because every time changing fashion trends, the media make people do as a prototype should be, change their bodies with plastic surgeries to get to be shown to them by society, consumption is defined as an important image of themselves are individuals and groups that the term consumer society has become synonymous with contemporary society, so I conclude that in the contemporary era people become superficial if not base what society gives them not be able to have a definite personality.

  21. Hi people, my name is Edgar Andres Torres, with respect to the question that has been done, (Do you think That the contemporary era have made more shallow Human Beings? Why or why not?), I think that some technologies helped humans, to that the life is very superficial, mostly in social networks, since many people give importance to their appearance and "what will they say about me?", besides that, people do not care about others, they do not ask "Hello, how are you, what about your life?, but you are more important to buy a car cute ...

  22. yes, i think that we are in a world were every day is more and more important the physical aspects, where who else matters is who has more money, who dresses better, who has more possessions and better body can looks.
    we have lost the true meaning of friendship, now we are false and we are just friends in times of joys. The saddest of this situacion is that also we have forgotten how to love and this is unacceptable, cause' we were born for love, live for love and for love the world can move, but how do it? if today the love doesn't is more than the pleasure of a night. We have definitely forgotten how to maintain a society based on good values, we have forgotten how to be good persons and now there isn't better friend than the computer, celular and internet.

  23. I do believe that this era has become very shallow due to technology as the means of telecommunications and virtual facilitated in many ways the lives of people, eg in the home with all types of appliances, in the work with all its machinery, in addition, work is not necessary to go to the company or have contact with users to do their jobs.
    In addition, social networking has made people not to share with those around them (social networks bring us closer to those far away, but separates us from those who are close).

  24. in my opinion, generally the human are very superficil especially in the contemporary era due to the technology change continuously and always want the best no matter what the cost. the persons always want to be very beautiful because they think that can get as they want with this but they are wrong because in the life there are things more important than the superficial.

  25. the people give priority to physical appearance, they forget what is truly important in life.
    the media sell prototypes of men and women perfect, and for this reason the people seek to eliminate defects or increase things in their bodies with plastic surgery.
    the fashion and technology play an important role in human needs, the essence of life has passed into the background. people's lives revolve around the computer, shopping, going to dance, drink and have sex, carried away by an attractive figure.

  27. people have become superficial because society has been responsible for creating and publicizing a prototype of woman and man and all so we convince ourselves that the person is physically perfect, almost always look at the physical appearance and not in the way of being ...
    another reason is that we care more for what appear to others that we are and what we have, we have everything sometimes material without worrying about feeding our spirit.
    also every time we care less what others think of us and just think to get, do and have whatever we want.

  28. i think the contemporary period begins in 1789 with the French Revolution, which caused the fall of the old regime existing in Europe and paved the way for new forms of political organization and social.porque apartir of this period arose new accelerated changes in my thinking and ways of thinking act of the people, systems and political systems, society and the economy, education, art, communications ...
    human beings begin to decide for themselves and gave rise to an individualistic, collectivist and materialist reality.
    economic policy changes had Beginning with globalization, which was when countries begin to join and there is an exchange of technology, science, art, fashion, gastronomy, culture, commerce, I pensr was the era when humans began living free of other powerful countries ruled us ... although much absorbed by technology.

  29. I thing that persons are every day more superficial, so we see reflected in the tv an internet etc, and the false idea that we send; such as for example, that only the persons are happy if have power, money and beauty.
    This idea ignores commun people, that they struggling to get a family and achieve happiness not material. Not be achieved with money, how ever that achieved with hard work and love for people around.

  30. I think yes, because modern technology has made people avoid personal contact between them, since everything is done by machines, so the world has become more lazy and dependent on devices that replace human labor and human relations people do indirectly through social networks, preventing movement and contact in real time. I think modern technology has contributed to stress and sedentary lifestyle of people. This age is more demanding, and therefore, people live more hurried and not enough time to do important things like sports, being with family, etc. In conclusion, people spend more time working selfishly, that sharing love and affection, and also humans have been relegated to second place by the machines, the spiritual for the material.

    Shallow people can not live. . . Only criticize. . . If they know they know not criticize judge, if they can not judge untrusted. "
    I think if we focused more on our happiness people would not be superficial and be guided by his heart but unfortunately to be popular you must have these three things fundamentares: MONEY, PHYSICAL and a rich daddy if you spend money. ..

  32. I think that as time passes society requires us more because we are constantly evolving and new technologies we create some dependency and do not allow us to think or act for our own criteria for this reason that man is now only concerned with be the "fashion" by buying the latest in the market (cell phones, clothes, computers,aesthetic treatments , and some other items) plus we are always concerned about the comments of others and only think of as appearing to show that we have more than them.
    For these reasons I believe that every day we are becoming too superficially and selfish beings.

    today the relationships of friends begin by social networks like facebook, Messeger, etc, where there show a totally different physical appearance than they are, as if it were much more important than what you really are as a person

  34. Yes, because the contemporary era is linked to consumerism that increasingly relies on bringing out more products to this an ideal prototype, such as having a better body, house, cars and gadgets, and makes people more superficial and that prices of some of these products are not available to all people, which makes some people become superficial and make a barrier with the others because they feel they are at your level. Every day we see advertisements of different products that are becoming a model and that the next goal becomes self get to feel good about yourself and feel that others admire, for example to buy a fashion recently rolled out makes you feel better than all, you become superficial because these wearing what many want and still have not, and because you are in the wave of fashion.

  35. I think the contemporary era has made human beings are more superficial because it was marked by acelaradas transformations accelerated in the economy,technology and society . built at the same time the different social classes and opened up new ways of political and social organisations.
    in our humanity was affected peasants and workers and a few possessed the power. technological advances make it increasingly looks more a superficial life in society, not only changed the industry, means of transport, how to work, but also the way of life and thought.

  37. Personally I think humans are inherently superficial, we can not help, neither good nor bad just so we are.
    Are superficial because society adopted a stereotype of people as "pretty, or good body"
    The truth is that there are people who value physical appearance, many times the emotional and / or spiritual. although it is a cultural thing, something you learn in society or that teach you leaving behind as a second option values​​.

  38. In my opinion every day people become more superficial as it has been an increased interest in technology and historic customs have released the sociological and philosophical.
    This influences people to seek always the easy way without trying to think, research, reading and able to obtain a broad intellectual knowledge.
    All these developments in turn are important and also very harmful to humans and which greatly facilitates the search for work and is faster, but also becomes highly dependent on human beings and this leads to mental laziness.
    This makes many people set more material things that are really worth it, regardless of hurt feelings and good intentions.

  39. I think the contemporary era has made people more superficial because they have forgotten about things that really matter such as principals, values and feelings. Men want to have the most beautiful woman with the most slender body, the most luxurious cars, biggest mansions and a massive amount of money. Women want to be the most beautiful in their neighborhood, country or even the world and because of this they modify their bodies with plastic surgery, and they're always following the next fashion tendency. Nowadays people don't choose a partner because of their values, virtues or intelligence, but because of their physical appearance or material wealth. Also, telecommunications have prevented people from having real human contact.

    1. I think that yes, the contemporary era has made human beings more superficial, because the current people don't worry for the most important things like the face to face relationships, in fact, the advances in the technology made that the distances between people were more short, but made that people think in speak virtually and forget the speak with the people that have around them. The neoliberal politics have made that the money was more important that people or nature, the consumerism has made that the value of people was measured but their possessions and not for their feelings, in this era, the relationships like things are discarded, in a early era, these were fixed.

I think that if, because one superimposes what they think about you on what really you are, you know or are capable, we live in an epoch where it matters mas all the friends you have in your social network, all the followers you have in your channel of youtube, all those fill your wall daily with positive or negative comments, we are in the epoch in which there are mas important the persons who give about that to speak that the persons who devote themselves to be what they really want to be.

    I think in the last 100 years man has evolved a lot and every time I discover new technologies or create new products, the man is forced to evolve their culture or beliefs, because every time you pass a renewed a decade always forms dress, how to live with other people, how to eat, etc..
    the truth is that the homber as being unhappy being will always be still more superficial thinking will always be the appearance of things and rarely see things from within, all human beings we simpre surface and actually this is something help us improve or worsen our culture or beliefs.

  45. More superficial beings, I think the contemporary age has made us sedentary, we ignore the natural beauty that every day we make it to one side.
    It is sad to know that technology has increased the gap between rich and poor, between countries that have not reached a high development and, on the contrary, developed countries would not worry about get richer and do not feel the need to make a good social work by countries in need, people living without water and starve daily.
    I would regard as superficial a senior societies, of which highlights the social marginalization that has been his biggest problem, ignoring the people of lower social class and few of the people I call rich learn that technology and progress economic should be a means to improve the quality of life for all the world's population and its role is not to make the rich richer and the poor poorer.

Yes, I think everyone in this time are very superficial, because we live in an age that requires us to have the best things, both technologically and emotionally and that's why we always look for the best and sometimes compete with each other. My opinion is that every day people we become more superficial, and historic customs have announced that we have lost many of our values ​​and everything we want, and you look at the material.

    is getting into people from an early age while leading some parents have to satisfy many whims of their children and this brings us to grow with a sense of superficiality

Because what really matters is what we are and the capabilities we have to fulfill our life projects. and no credit card or the pretty face of the child (a) of mommy and daddy. ra awakens one day and will have to face the world alone and is there when you will realize what the world has for him.

  49. totally agree, if we have become a materialistic society, be more concerned with having, but all due to new society called consumer society where the vast majority of people seek material goods daily to see who is based on having and taking ideologies such as "I am more in society if I have more" and all this because it is more important to have at any price, including extreme cases such as prostitution or delinquency only get what they want, without compelling justification, that is in society that I am older than you, because I have what you want.
    materialism if I change that society must accept that seduced us, day after day by consumerism and more than that, we do not know that just made ​​us part of it.

I think that yes, the contemporary era has made human beings more superficial, because the current people don't worry for the most important things like the face to face relationships, in fact, the advances in the technology made that the distances between people were more short, but made that people think in speak virtually and forget the speak with the people that have around them. The neoliberal politics have made that the money was more important that people or nature, the consumerism has made that the value of people was measured but their possessions and not for their feelings, in this era, the relationships like things are discarded, in a early era, these were fixed.

  51. I think that contemporary era to the fact that the humanity is more superficial because in the actuallity there are many technological advances and this causes people to be in short people are useless. Also played extensively on the subject of beauty this most of all affects only young because they always want to be fashionable,and these young men would do anything to acquire beauty and spend on anything that gets in their way. I also think that the ambition of money can affect us all because every day we have more and more and this in a not too distant future we can bring many troubles and problems that we ourselves can not solve.

  52. in my opinion yes, for the great impact of the contemporary era is noted in our sedentary lifestyle and easy way.
    also in the way the revolution transformed our lives .. like everything revolves around us is so technological that we are depending on it regardless of cost or environmental damage, not even we consider the damage to us that everything is so significant because it is through social networks all so easy or rather one day soon we passed the bill¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
    because if we do not react fast will exhaust all resources ahead of schedule, and our future families do not enjoy what we waste now meaningless.

  53. I think that the contemporary era has made human beings more superficial because nowadays the people are influenced by the t.v or all kind the advertising . most people want appear with things that most the times are useless, they want to use all the products that marketing show them. Nowadays most the people is not interested in be self-sufficient, in to be interested to be more critical, to increase their knowledge, to read. Most the people are wrong giving importance to things unimportant. The essential things are invisible for the eyes

  54. My opinion is that superficiality is an attitude this time, because we are in a social culture that only cares about what others think about them and how they look on the outside, regardless of the feelings and values ​​that the person may have.
    Humans give importance to little things, when in fact there are other things you should worry as social problems, injustices, human degradation, etc..
    Humans must be aware of the progress of the deformation of being in their interests and purposes of life. The mute is leading us to the individual and the pursuit of pleasure, of having, of personal property, regardless of the means by which the scope, legal or illegal, the important thing is to reach the goal set by a decadent society in valoric fundamental.

  55. If because nowadays people want to look your best no matter the circumstances, they can put their lives at risk through plastic surgery to look beautiful or pretty (as the media would have us believe in what we call beauty). Through this makes people more superficial and create feel superior to others regardless of how you can be that person. previously highly valued people who were very intelligent and well expressed that regardless of physical appearance, unlike today which is nice to have the body the best trained, best tan, designer clothes and is not as important is one of few neurons so to speak. Both men and women are too shallow and do not realize that sooner or later more beautiful it is going to age and lose all that they believe have the beauty

  56. Yes, I believe that the persons tend to be more superficial as there is more technology. the persons are interested in the physical appearance and from what they have stopping of side as one is.
    In spite of being the new engine of the socidad and in his search of a better quality of life, the technology has caused that we are interested in the things that we have or that consume without importing the others.
    In the education they teach us to use the technology but little they teach us that the persons matter more. It is not that it is a bad age, the fact is that we have directed her badly.adly.

  57. In my opinion i think at the time that we are if there are people surface, people who don't give you about what are today, people don't worry about the appearance, dress, and its vocabulary to talk to other people.
    We are people superficial because we live in a world where we care about what they think it'S our friends and what they say social networks that what you want for our lives and future.
    How good it is that all of us the human beings we knew it to the wisdom of a man with positive values and not genuine, honest, responsible, dynamic and the most important thing you have a human being is your self-esteem, to be able to reach goals and projects.

  58. yes , because either we stop being persons, either we are not interested in the persons who exist in other if them material things that it has and it can offer us, except that the consumerism got already to our hearths, believe that we need certain material things to live happy, the truth is that the love, one does not buy the friendship. The superficiality, in these times with that thing about the globalization of the markets has turned something very important for the society who governs us, it is already how you dress yourself, since you are physically, they do not give him importance to the values or knowing that it has other, with these "modern" times we have turned that you use mark, that you frequent places and the worst thing is that all these persons end in a gap, it is sad to realize that in the end it gives priority what you have and what is.

The children are alone because parents are occupied making money and the families are running.

  60. yes, I think we are concerned about the shallowness of what is really important as it is to earn respect and show us how we really are, as technology progresses people are losing the value of friendship, to share their feelings with another, and the only thing they think is pretending they do not have why our society has a stereotype that we fear actually show and show what others want to see us.

  61. most people have as a priority the physical appearance and ignore the important things that occur in society.

    as the physical beauty is one of the things that impacted the world and this is causing people to become very shallow and the media sell various prototypes of perfect men and women through TV, magazines etc. .., by people go to physical changes to have a greater resemblance to the prototypes seen in the media.

    technology and show business have become a necessity for human beings since grasias to that life has changed drastically since for today's society baliar most importantly, drinking, sex, etc.., and of more is necessary and that matters do not pay attention, people do not care about others.
    and people have become very shallow and have been manipulated by an attractive figure.

  62. I think in this time most people have a very high level of superficiality because society itself has imposed these patterns, showing and exhibiting human beings as objects valuing them more for their physical appearance and the amount of money they have than they really are as people and positioning them within society according to physical things completely trivial and without considering the human being as such.
    Also the most important thing now is trying to get away from this funnel in which the society is getting more and more and remember that there are things more important than money and physical beauty.

  63. I think the contemporary era if you have had influence on human beings, to the point of making them superficial beings because all the developments and events have been occurring over the past 223 years have led to continued growth and excessive , getting the widespread consumption of all types of products, services and natural resources that have been raised for a large part of human living standards in a previously unsuspected, but have sharpened the social and spatial inequalities and leave raised to the near future severe environmental uncertainties. This makes it clear that advances in society have limited human mind, making them insensitive beings, selfish, individualistic. People by the desire to live for today, do not measure future consequences for their work and use of resources.
    The events of this era have been marked by accelerated changes in the economy, society and technology, which has often led to believe that people are valued for what they have or reflect physically, regardless of the virtues and qualities that may have.

  64. In my opinion today everything has become more shallow, especially at this time because todays teens want to explore the world, and are unsure of themselves and look for something to hide his true personality by the same company we are....
    Today, as technology advances that everything becomes more superficial, youth only want to get in a virtual world, have the best phone, best blackberry, live forever stuck on social networks like Facebook and Twitter.
    Moreover this mode of dress, believe that if they do not use clothes that are in fashion are not eligible to enter society, I think that all this is a mental problem....
    Now everything has changed in the past that people are spending more to appreciate things that are not material and the welfare of the family, having a close family, people thought only grow as human beings, before people did not think much in appear.

  65. In modern society has made to the individuals who make care more about physical aspects of the interiors ( development of knowledge or intellectual skills). This is because the meaning or concept of beauty that has been established in our society in recent years. This significantly affects the environment in which we live, because they generate many types of exclusion around all the activities we do daily. The "beauty" gives status to society and you can even get specific charges in the workplace; while most of the time, knowledge is only a small part to the acceptance or engagement in certain positions or spaces. It seems as if society needed a kind of company that produced humans in series, without diversity of knowledge, skills and feelings. We are human beings and have the ability to reason, but it seems that consumerism leads us to think as others want us to think.

  67. I believe that human beings let carry at the time.
    The contemporary era, forces us to change, we ourselves are those who decide to change in our lives.
    Everything has to change at the time and follow new searches for future projects. Analyze what is life from our ancestors, that went, what we are and what we can become.
    Our era is our time, everything that makes you change is wanting to follow rules of the society.
    Yes, could not be ourselves, then it would be us in future events. The time whole to our rules? Therefore, the rules were not to comply with them provided that they are right for all in this society.

  68. The contemporary era if you have made human beings more superficial. Every day the media reflect prototypes of almost perfect beauty. The ability to love others and ourselves has been lost. The material has been a growing force becoming the most important motivation. Violence makes us ever more facile. Ability is low considering the large research and advances that have been made. We are becoming less respectful and tolerant environment. Women and men have reached the point of changing your body to please others or just to be famous.

  69. The humanity in this was contemporary advances to exaggerated steps, the consumption to the superficial material and, the so short or limited time that each human being handles. It causes that all products of consumption are practitioners the more possible; and this does that the interest reason why is natural or by the nature, is less and less excellent or important. The technological advance the handling of the potentiality, has made employees to everything to the world generally, the superficiality is customary so badly the humanity that is itself forced to replace its technical or technological products almost immediately, turning them without realizing in programmed obsolescences, now the majority gives more importance him the tangible thing that to intangible, as they are the familiar moral, ethics and values, human and the personal thing. This was with its advance, besides ending the work of the man as they are the farmers, also is taking ahead to the environment. The power consumption is increasing, and the impact will be so negative to such point that the human being will have to live in spaces with atmosphere artificial 100%. That so beneficial it is for the human being the contemporary era? That extreme it will have to touch the human being so that I little evaluated the natural environment that is had? In the end who will be right or who gained this fight of man-technology-consumption-materialism-superficiality? The truth would not take in knowing itself.

  70. Yes, because the important events that are happening in this season are due to the transformations in the economic, social and technological aspects. In which human beings are totally involved, we just care the material and superficial things, we give more importance to the economic value in a person more than it really matter. We are actually in a world where "If you dont have the last technology, like cell phones, computers, stereos, television, etc, you are no one, you are worthless", "You worth what you have", we are slowly becoming in superficial persons.

  71. every day we become more superficial beings today's world offers a great variety and quantity of products that help improve our physical appearance, unfortunately we are a consumer society that does not look depths the real value of things, we are always pending physical appearance, thanks to the media that also have been responsible for some models show women and men with perfect measures to advertise and encourage the purchase of products that help us to feel better physically.
    The plastic surgery is a growing market that is strong evidence of such a superficial society in which we become each day.

  72. I argue that the contemporary era, if you have become shallow people, according to the story that people used to work for happiness, to feel good about themselves, now everyone just want to make money and more money no matter what have to do, destroy their own planet, your body with surgeries just to get money, people are monotomas the Internet, cell phones and in a matter of all the technology, no one can live without it.
    people have forgotten the true value of life, because I think it is to be happy, make everyone happy that we rolled by and watch what we need most valuable is this beautiful planet that has given us everything we are.
