Ellen Atlanta, the author of Pixel Flesh: How Toxic Beauty Culture Harms Women, explains how the digital age has amplified pressure on women, girls, and marginalized genders to meet increasingly unnatural beauty standards. We talk about the cultural phenomenon of the Kardashians, the Love Island aesthetic, whether the body-acceptance movement has stalled, and more. Plus, Ellen, Jess, and Jenn discuss what we can do to help girls and young women navigate beauty culture safely so they feel healthy, respected, and confident as they grow up.
