[quote=Anonymous]I know the title of this thread precludes a lot of things, but shouldn’t we be talking to our sons and all kids about beauty standards? If you don’t teach them all, the culture doesn’t change. Women & girls can’t do all the work. Tell all your kids that the hyperfocus on beauty is tied to capitalism & needing to feel bad to buy more stuff. They can resist if they understand they are being manipulated. Sorry if this comes across as a screed, but there are so many feminist implications for not helping these kids value themselves.[/quote]
