I realize that in my previous post I sort of left out the fact that men are just as negatively affected, if not worse, than women. Men, and especially young boys, seeing beauty ads are getting the message that that's what "real women" look like. It breeds a generation of men who search for these unrealistic, or rather, non-existent women. What a terrible cycle, where women must constantly try to live up to the male standards all around them.
Here's one of my favorite anti-beauty-industry-male-feminists, Rafael Casal. Check out his other stuff, it's all really honest and awesome.
