Episode notes

i stumbled upon a five minute informational video via plastic surgery dot org that explained how but implants work. But that didn't answer the quandary about three printed future butts, and those do not appear to be on the market yet. i did read about one team inventing breast in plans that are like an absorbable, three printed zip lock bag that you fill with your own fat and shove it in your boob. So those will probably be available for buts in the future.

We love it. We hate it. BEAUTY CULTURE.

Looking good can make us feel decorated, empowered and more confident -- but why?

And why are certain groups subtly told to "make-up" for their appearance?

What's the line between self-care and oppression?

Psychologist and beauty-researcher Dr. Renee Engeln shines a huge bright floodlight on the sometimes ugly machinery of the billion-dollar beauty and "fitness" industry. This is an episode for make-up lovers, haters and the millions of us confused about being both at once. It's also an opportunity for dudes to learn just how how skewed the standards are. Buckle up -- this ologist will change the way you see the world, others and hopefully, yourself.
