The Tyranny of Toxic Beauty Standards

The relentless pursuit of physical perfection in today's image-obsessed society has severe consequences for mental health. Unrealistic beauty standards perpetuated by media and social media amplify minor flaws, leading to self-loathing and insecurity. This toxic mentality is internalized from a young age, contributing to depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. The beauty industry exploits these vulnerabilities by selling "solutions" that promise confidence and desirability. To heal, we must resist and dismantle harmful beauty norms, embrace diversity, and cultivate inner qualities. By practicing radical self-love and acceptance, we can find true freedom and wholeness.

DIS/couraged. DIS/stressed. DIS/turbed. DIS/ordinary. DIS/verse.

The disembodiment of every proportion. The negation of every perfection. The uncanny side of beauty.
