Let's talk about BODY IMAGE. Is the modern cosmetic industry a scam? Or is it a genuine outlet of self-expression? Or...both? We talk with Elizabeth Lee, an Asian-American millennial, about beauty standards, exercise, and how social media compounds the crazy notions we have about beauty because now EVERYONE can Photoshop and filter themselves, not just models in popular magazines like Vogue. And it doesn't just effect women, either. We talk about male body image, the "dad bod" phenomenon, and whether the expectation of men going to the gym for hours is the equivalent of women spending hours on makeup and online shopping.
Really interesting video on zyzz, the male bodybuilding sensation who died of heart failure at 22 in 2011: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fYmwhyqmYg
Music is The Beauty of Maths by Meydän.
