Thank you for this, Matthew. I sent it to my sister.

I think the irony of modern beauty standards (plastic surgery, daily excessive makeup, super long nails, crazy high heels) is that they actually make those who take part in them extremely unattractive. At least, this has been my personal experience. It’s almost as if those who chase the looks of youth end up with a worse appearance than before. 
I notice a similar in young men as well. They all get this bushy, ultra-curly hairy style that is purposefully disheveled (instead of naturally curly hairy which is controlled) and I think it looks more ungentlemanly than masculine. They’ve all become effeminate.

I think they believe they're improving but at some point you add up the incremental changes and they cross a threshold where they look completely different and there's no going back.
