From today’s perspective, females are encouraged to focus their feelings of body image towards a thinner figure. This has become the general social norm in our society. We see images of perfect bodies all around us, on television, in movies, and online.
Recently while scrolling through twitter I came across a post about a beauty blogger and her response when someone said they wanted to look like her. One of her fans commented on her picture ‘if I woke up as beautiful as this id be the happiest girl alive’. The blogger responded with ‘girl I have micro bladed brows, lash extensions in and lip injections. I don’t even look like this’. Her response got huge attention over social media and she was praised for being so honest.
I think if all social influencers were as honest as this girl maybe there wouldn't be such a pressure for young girls to feel like they have to look a certain way.
