“There should be no boundaries to human endeavor. We are all different. However bad life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. While there’s life, there is hope.”
— The Theory of Everything (2014)
Naomi Wolf hitting the nail on the head about one of the key ways beauty norms for men and women differ. Men are exposed to restrictive norms of appearance. However, few young men will list male models amongst their role models, whereas many young women aspire to be models & look up to female models, because men are not taught that their appearance is their core value in the same way that women are. And because men have always had so many more politicians, business leaders, and fictional heroes (defined by traits other than their appearance) of their gender to admire than women.
We should talk about how beauty norms hurt men and women, but we must also acknowledge that sexism is a huge force that pushes beauty norms on women and hurts women in ways it does not men.
