Yes.

Snapchat dysmorphia as well.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

Yeah, so you have girls who are using, did you know about Facetune?

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

Because I swear no young men even know what it is.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

You don't know?

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

See, that's great.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

So Facetune is like one of the most popular apps where girls would edit themselves to then post on Instagram.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

No, going in and editing each part of your face.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

So you can slim your jaw, you can enlarge your eyes, you can change your waist, you can tan your skin, you can whiten your teeth.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

It's everything.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

But that is what girls were using as teenagers all throughout life.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

there all throughout growing up and then they've reached their 20s and people say why are they unhappy with the way they look why do they have body dysmorphia and they're using this app where you you change yourself and then there's like an undo button which if you click it you look horrifying because then it reverts back to who you actually look but you had girls doing that during the most formative years of their life and then trying to adjust to how they actually look

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

Yeah, that's another paradox.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

I think because it's a marketing strategy, it's much like

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

mental health awareness.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

A lot of that was a marketing strategy.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

The self-love campaign was basically ways to sell things like editing apps.

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

So Facetune was marketed as something that can help you feel confident and empowered and

Modern Wisdom
The Extreme Crisis of Young Women - Freya India - #1090

I talk about these influencers in the book who are literally, they're literally talking about how they don't have any insecurities anymore and they've overcome it and they finally reached a stage of self-love while they're literally reshaping their jaw on Facetune, teaching girls how to do it.

And none of the comments are calling that out or thinking it's hypocritical.
