The document discusses the unrealistic and harmful standards of beauty promoted by the media and culture. It notes that thin women earn more money on average and attractive candidates are viewed more positively by employers. Models are often heavily photoshopped. The culture promotes a white standard of beauty, leading women of color to use skin lightening creams or hair relaxers. Pursuing beauty through cosmetics, tanning, and plastic surgery can negatively impact health and safety. Unattainable beauty standards impact women's self-esteem and mental health.
