     In the fall 2019 issue, the article that intreigued me most was in the identity section. Titled, "Trapped in Society," by Autumn Antonson I got hooked immediatly. I also noticed that the basic surface of it was about insecurities and feeling incomplete. It is an incredibly moving story told in the third person; it takes us from when the insecure girl was seven years old all the way up to her now. She speaks about how juggling society's near impossible beauty standards is practically tearing her apart. 

     As a teenage girl, i 100% agree with the statments made in the story, and i can relate on a different level myself. Though I have a high metabolism, people expect me to be contnent in my skin, I'm not supposed to dislike myself, and yet I do. Ultimately, I think this piece is incredibly powerful and moving; more people need to pay attention to things of this sort, and the writer clearly is passionate about this topic, which results in an amazing piece.
