I think its reasonable to bring attention to the extremely harmful act of women, who are held by society as the beauty standard, are anorexic or abusing weight loss drugs when it isn't necessary.

We have countless studies on the ill effects idolizing women with unrealistic body standards, especially to the point they're harming themselves to achieve them, has on women and young girls. This recent revival of the "heroine chick" beauty standard via eating disorders and GLP1 abuse is a nightmare to the psyche of women and girls, and also does damage the psyche of men and young boys for that matter.

"Heroin chic" is the fashion of looking starved and shadowed as if you're a heroin addict.

"Heroine chick" is Supergirl
