Toxic Femininity and the Kardashian Empire
The representation of womanhood can become crass when overtly using sexuality to inspire lust, greed, or envy. This hyper objectification is seen in the Kardashian empire, where Kim Kardashian's career was launched with a sex tape and her persona is often hypersexualized. Such actions are viewed as a toxic version of femininity and not a good role model for future generations. Toxic femininity can involve using one's body to deceive, manipulate, or inspire lust, similar to toxic masculinity using power to harm others. It's important to recognize that women are responsible for respecting their bodies and modesty, without implying responsibility for a man's lust.
