“A 2005 story for The Guardian analyzed the misogyny rampant in men’s magazines at the time, noting a For Him Magazine feature that encouraged readers to calculate what their girlfriends were being “paid” for sex, by way of flowers, drinks, cinema tickets, and other expenses, comparing price points to “a Cambodian whore,” “a Cypriot tart,” and “a Cuban showgirl.”

“In 2019, the writer Jia Tolentino described ‘the gradual emergence, among professionally beautiful women, of a single, cyborgian face,’ and no one seems to have pioneered its uncanny lifelessness more effectively than the Kardashians.”
“The visage Tolentino described as “Instagram face” seems to belie age, background, and ethnicity; it erases individuality and imperfection in favor of a singular painted symmetry. ”
“A quote from the art critic John Berger’s 1972 collection Ways of Seeing, about images in advertising. ‘The spectator-buyer is meant to envy herself as she will become if she buys the product,’ he writes. ‘She is meant to imagine herself transformed by the product into an object of envy for others, an envy which will then justify her loving herself. One could put this another way: the publicity image steals her love of herself as she is, and offers it back to her for the price of the product.’”
“British tabloid newspaper The Sun offered a £50,000 prize for the first couple to have sex on camera on the reality show Big Brother, and no one seemed to care that a journalistic institution was essentially commissioning sex or to find the offer even slightly unsettling.”
