(a); The paragraph given states that society's expectations, though not a new phenomenon, are multifarious and contradictory. Perfectionism of the 1950s involved seamless conforming to values, behaviour and appearance while perfectionism of today is about standing out.
Option A is the best of the given summaries as it touches upon all key ideas.
Option B is incorrect. The paragraph does not say that pressure to appear perfect has been the cause of 'tension and conflict'.
Option C, which is about 'the desire to attract attention' being deep-rooted, is not related to the contents of the paragraph.
Option D talks about the role of media. The paragraph does not mention this.
