    This actually makes me kinda sad. She’s already perfectly proportioned, I really wonder what the filters are doing to beautiful girls’ mental state.

      Yeah, she just posted this comparison herself for awareness, she doesn’t seem to feel the need to use filters herself for her content thankfully.

      Nothing good. Kids These Days™ (I’m an old bat so everyone under ~25 is a kid 😅) have it really tough when it comes to appearance, and the pressure isn’t mainly on just women and girls anymore either – there’s a lot more pressure on guys too nowadays.

      Younger generations have gotten many things way more right than us Gen X’s, but sadly many things are a lot more fucked up too. I’m so glad that when I was a teen smartphones weren’t a thing, let alone influencers, filters (literal airbrushing doesn’t count!), etc. etc., and “social media” was BBSs, Usenet, and IRC
