That shame might stem, largely, from the fear of appearing as anything other than a red-blooded American white guy, but Cohen is really good at puncturing his targets' self-image; in all the best Who Is America segments, you can watch their eyes slowly fill with regret as the segments go on.

With the corruption case hanging over his head and a stiff challenge from Benny Gantz, a retired army chief of staff whose security credentials rival Mr. Netanyahu's, Israelis are starting to ask whether Israel can not only survive, but thrive, without the man who has come to dominate their national self-image.

As the youngest MCU title hero by at least a decade, Peter is uniquely qualified to demonstrate what it means to come of age in an era of superheroes and supervillains, and how that might shape the morality or self-image or general outlook of an impressionable mind still working all that stuff out.

And one factor is likely that the Democratic base has moved substantially to the left on the question of when (or if) immigration enforcement is acceptable at all — and the party's leadership is still trying to figure out how to satisfy that shift while retaining their self-image as the party of responsible governance.

"On our way driving home from a photo session, we were talking, how most best friends do, about how we struggle with our self-image and how things that people have said to us, or labeled us, are hurtful and we can remember vividly being called things clear back to grade school," they said.

And, perhaps equally importantly, Biden made a version of the "America is already great" argument that explicitly catered to the self-image of Americans who work in manufacturing jobs, join the military, and so forth — which includes white voters as well as people of color: We have the finest fighting force in the world.

But some of Mr. Macron's isolation is also a function of his favored self-image as a solitary warrior, creating a stark choice between himself and the French far right for next May's elections for the European Parliament, which are shaping up as a battle between the forces of integration and fragmentation on the Continent.

In a country that is still trying to reconcile its multicultural population with its "Australia-First" rhetoric, the L.G.s and L.B.s — who have grown up melding the expectations of immigrant heritage and traditional Australian identity — have carved out their own community, online and off, with a self-image that is still very much in flux.

Over generations, the Night's Watch — the force created to patrol the Wall — changed its self-image too, thinking of itself as a kind of border patrol, an icebound I.C.E., there to defend Westeros from what it saw as savages who wanted to pour over the border and steal the riches of honest, hardworking Westerosi.

Almost all his disruptive foreign-policy moves, the rows with allies, withdrawals from international agreements, tariffs and threats of worse on every front, can be viewed primarily as tactical ploys intended to push his self-image as a decisive leader, honour ill-considered campaign pledges or stoke the partisan, nationalist and xenophobic sentiment from which he draws strength.

It "is a desperately important stance to take in honor of the 10's of millions of women (at least) who struggle so much with their self image, due to decades of impossibly demanding body standards being inflicted upon us, and false imagery being used to subliminally manipulate us into a feeling of (needless) disappointment in ourselves," she wrote.

For a man as obsessed about his self image as Trump, a new flow of inputs can make the world of difference By this account, Trump is so immature that he needs his media diet and social life heavily controlled; he can't be trusted not to make a rash decision based on the incomplete or conflicting information he's given.

Intimacy is also an important part of baseball's self-image; it wants to be seen as a sport where fans can be close enough to the field to snag an autograph from a favorite player before a game, or catch a ball tossed by a first baseman as he jogs toward the dugout after a third out.

"Cleo also opened up about her pregnancy's impact on her self-image: "I absolutely love being pregnant, for the most part," she wrote, "but I have also never felt so unsexy as I do today, especially in the last trimester... I have been craving and loving that feeling of putting on my heels, a sexy song and pole dancing.

In our near-schizophrenic consensus view of racial progress, this legacy of denial operates to celebrate the nation's preferred self-image as a clearinghouse of equal individual opportunity, open to all, while obsessively rationalizing away slavery, colonialism, and extermination as the singular, hermetically contained responsibility of the individual bad actors long ago who perpetrated these harms.

Ezekiel, or Zeke, Stark is a cultural anthropologist in his late 30s, obsessed with images, both the concrete kind (photographs) and the metaphorical kind ("self-image"), a "privileged, educated" screw-up, as he says of himself, steeped in theorists like Clifford Geertz and Walter Benjamin, but also in pop culture — Pee-wee Herman, Steve Jobs, JonBenet Ramsey, etc.

"There's something about Putin, with his macho image and the imperial trappings that he has built up in the 18 years since he came to power that appeals to Trump, and his own self-image," said Alexander Vershbow, a former United States ambassador to Russia who helped prepare Mr. Clinton for his Helsinki summit meeting two decades ago.

She offers the best description I have read of one of the deepest harms that sexual predators inflict: that those awful bargains, struck under duress, become fodder for the little voice that tells women their strongest qualities are the ones that leave them in the most danger — damaging victims' self-confidence and self-image for decades.

From The King of Comedy to Gremlins, Ghostbusters to The Last Temptation of Christ, Hoberman explores how films of the decade reflected an America that was newly fond of nostalgia cinema, still reeling from the blow to its self-image that was Vietnam, and largely allergic to the more subversive filmmaking of the decades that came before.

Jastrow is so attached to his self-image as an intellectual — someone too knowing and philosophical to do anything as gauche as panic — that he responds to Hitler's rise to power with detachment, a reaction that on its face seems baffling, given that it's 1939 and that he lives in a fascist country closely allied with Germany.

It's not so different in the West, it's just that you see more clearly what the country stood for in its own mythologized self-image, what it was to be an American, what it was to aspire to some new and exemplary measure of freedom, and how far things have fallen to produce President Donald Trump.

Dr. Cacioppo likens the area to a "small robot in your head": one that helps us process language and numbers and manages deep-seated, complex autobiographical data as well, like a person's self-image and "theory of mind," or the capacity to recognize and attribute mental states (like desires and thoughts) to oneself and to others.

But it's beyond time for a clear-eyed view of how his self-image as a principled leader and bridge-builder stacks up against reality: This is a man who fell in line with, and enabled, one of the most divisive and destructive presidents we've ever had — a choice it has taken him far too long to regret.

This study's findings have been used to bolster the connections between poor self-image and poor relationship health, most recently in The Power of Bad: How the Negativity Effect Rules Us and How We Can Rule It, by John Tierney and Roy F. Baumeister, released on the last day of 2019 and excerpted in The Atlantic on Thursday.

Which is why I'm fairly convinced that our self-image is only as good as the last mirror we looked in, though I'm willing to concede that there might be some rare birds out there for whom an unflattering glass slab is just that, and not a reason to feel a crushing sense of self-loathing that lingers for days.

It is a betrayal of Mr. Cuomo's lofty plans to revitalize the economies in western and central New York; of the Cuomos' political self-image, built by his father, the former governor Mario M. Cuomo, on clean, competent, accountable government; and, finally, of the Old World fealty that father and son, both Democrats, demanded from those who worked for them.

Audiences here liked to escape — into talent shows like "The Voice" or "Master Chef," where the competition is individual, not national; or reality shows like "Big Brother," where the conflict is personal, not political; or fiction like "Loaded," a dramedy about a high-tech start-up whose owners become overnight millionaires, playing to Israel's self-image as the next Silicon Valley.

Cole worked out his feelings about his ex-wife over a couple of testy days, at the end of which Alison framed the question for him — he could leave his current wife, Luisa, to return to Alison and be a happy jerk, or he could stay with Luisa, preserve his self-image as a good guy and be a miserable hero.

"Quicksand" is a novel that begins like a parlor game gone awry: On its first page, a little cross-section of contemporary Swedish society — a right-on homeroom teacher, a Ugandan foster child, a cashmere-clad blonde, a son of Middle Eastern immigrants — lies on the floor, spattered with blood, as if darkly satirizing the country's self-image of civilized multiculturalism.

Freeland had, as always, done her homework for the speech, carefully reading keynote addresses on foreign policy by past prime ministers, including the Nobel laureate Lester Pearson, who initiated the idea of blue-helmeted United Nations peacekeepers during the Suez Crisis in the 225s — the kind of enlightened leadership that is fundamental to Canada's self-image as a good global citizen.

Mr Trump also has "average size" hands, "orange" skin, hair that appears on close inspection to be real, but which must "take a heck of a lot of time in the morning" to arrange, and always wears his ties too long, said Mr Comey, whose projected self-image as a dispassionate and dutiful public servant has always been undermined by a relish for political drama.

Those Nazi sympathizers and their elected representatives in Washington have reconfigured an important line in American cultural politics: the alignment between the right and a glorified national self-image that was produced in the aftermath of World War II. The strong identification between conservatives and the greatest generation and their fight for freedom had felt unshakable, lasting through the Cold War and the War on Terror.

But a great many of the people who populate those schools, a great many of the people who complain about preppy creeps and rich jocks even as they try to imitate them, a great many of the people whose essays on What Kavanaugh Represents are populating elite-media websites these days, are much more like the "elites and legacies" than their self-image permits them to admit.

By stripping the husk from self-image this way, what Schor reveals is its mysteriously contradictory truth: the anger, frustration, and insecurity that underlie an extravagantly self-deprecating joke like a skeleton with breasts, but also the absurdity that underlies them; the bitter pinch of decay underlying creation, and vice versa; and, especially, the unresolvable tussle between roles that are socially imposed and those that emerge from within.

CEOs of companies, while dealing with challenges of different scope than that of the president, are in essence trying to achieve similar goals, such as: aligning the masses behind a strategy or an initiative, communicating and explaining decisions to other stakeholders internally or publicly, encouraging individuals to work hard toward common goals, communicating confidently at times of crises, defending strategies and agendas and portraying a positive self-image.

The funniest episode in the protective yet revealing new Hillary Clinton profile arrives when we learn that this sad, unemployed, 69-year-old lady is so desperate to keep her self-image alive that she still employs flunkies and retainers to treat her as though she actually were the president, or the secretary of state, or a president in waiting, or at very least the leader of the opposition.

Following suit, through the everyday fact of being on the road the conflict between these two worlds will appear quite clear cut: between what one thinks and what one collides with, between what one dreams and what one does, between what one desires and what one obtains […] Segalen approaches China's various cultures through archaeological research based in scientific and historical facts, yet he is aware that his self-image is constituted largely by his imagination.

Hong denies that he's ever practiced conversion therapy, and said that he has been practicing "post gay" therapy for the past 30 years, a counseling approach where the "objectives are to enhance self image, remove guilt and shame resulting from [a client's] sexual orientation, and to gain emotional satisfaction from other relationships such as family, friends, heterosexual, or spiritual relationships, so that they can experience joy and peace in their lives," Hong told me.

" —Jane Mattei, Calgary, Alberta Setting Us Apart "We do see our health care system as a defining feature of our society, but as with many of the things we see as integral to our own self-image (multiculturalism, bilingualism, peacekeeping, gun restrictions, the monarchy) we choose to identify with it mainly because it sets us apart from the U.S.A. Remember: In the context of developed countries, the Canadian health care system is pretty unremarkable.

Not the traditional self-image of certain American and British jingoists who like to think of the United States as the City on the Hill or Britain as the sceptered isle splendidly aloof from the wicked Continent, but another kind of Anglo-American exception: the one shaped by World War II. The defeat of Germany and Japan resulted in a grand alliance, led by the United States, in the West and Asia.

America's self-image as a middle-class nation is so deeply ingrained in the country's politics that we don't often stop to think what, precisely, that means: whether it defines a concrete socioeconomic identity — a country where most people are neither very rich nor very poor — or an aspiration, the notion that if you "work hard and play by the rules," as Clinton put it the first time she ran for president, you're entitled to at least a modest prosperity.
