If you're going purely off of what sells the best for TV as the beauty standard than you're certainly confused somewhere because often times women that look like kylie jenner aren't the models used for this sub that I'm talking about. They're generally with a small but existent belly, thicker hips and legs and medium or large breasts. I've never seem a woman that looks like kylie jenner here, and while that isn't to say it doesn't happen, it's certainly not the usual post that is being complained about for beauty standards or false proportions. It's generally just a healthy beautiful woman that someone takes issue with and calls the OP an objectifying piece of shit. If we're talking about unrealistic standards on TV however i can agree with you there but it's certainly no better or worse with men who take steroids and dont leave the gym for 6 months to get fit for a role.

Regardless you just tried to derail the point i was making with a point about beauty standards on a completely separate platform that has no weight in this conversation. As far as I've seen, if its a beautiful woman with symmetrical breasts that isn't plus sized, there's always a woman in the comments calling out patriarchal injustice of this "fake woman" when often times there is a model behind it.

It's gorgeous but, as a Florida Man, I can tell you that what you've crafted is an alligator -- not a crocodile.

Edit: on further review, it's neither and both. I noticed the U-shaped snout before (alligator), but missed the lower teeth sticking up (croc).

That’s simply not true. The mainstream beauty standard for women is ridiculously high, and it’s disingenuous to pretend that it’s not. Women don’t look like Kylie Jenner without diet, exercise, and loads of plastic stuffed into them. ā€œHealthyā€ might be your personal preference, but that’s not the beauty standard, that’s average.

I find there is even whimsical art within the page you chose. The middle of the last line of text saying "Where to look, I ask?" The first words on the page being "Remain with me!" Lovely drawing, and I would treasure this.
