Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Beth makes the case that Western culture is specifically engineered to keep women insecure — that entire industries profit from women believing they are not enough as they are. Does this feel like an overstatement to you, or does it ring true? Why?
2.She addresses the media's role in setting an impossible standard for women's bodies and faces — one that even the women in the images don't actually meet, thanks to digital alteration. How consciously are you aware of these messages in your daily life? How much do they affect you?
3.Beth writes about the way social comparison has been turbocharged by our culture — we are now comparing ourselves not just to our neighbors but to a curated global highlight reel. Where is comparison most toxic in your own life right now?
