Beauty Myth Quotes

Is the beauty myth good to men? It hurts them by teaching them how to avoid loving women. It prevents men from actually seeing women. It does not, contrary to its own professed ideology, stimulate and gratify sexual longing. In suggesting a vision in place of a woman, it has a numbing effect, reducing all senses but the visual, and impairing even that Picture Quote #1

As soon as a woman’s primary social value could no longer be defined as the attainment of virtuous domesticity, the beauty myth redefined it as the attainment of virtuous beauty. It did so to substitute both a new consumer imperative and a new justification for economic unfairness in the workplace where the old ones had lost their hold over newly liberated women Picture Quote #1

The idea that beauty is unimportant or a cultural construct is the real beauty myth. We have to understand beauty, or we will always be enslaved by it Picture Quote #1

We are in the midst of a violent backlash against feminism that uses images of female beauty as a political weapon against women’s advancement: The beauty myth Picture Quote #1

As women demanded access to power, the power structure used the beauty myth materially to undermine women’s advancement Picture Quote #1
