    I think a significant part of this "trend" is caused by body dysmorphia. It is predominantly young women and those with a greater disposition toward eating disorders. This is, unfortunately, a very sad reflection of how they would like to be seen. They need help, not viral affirmation that encourages their belief that this "standard of beauty" is something to aspire to.

    As someone who previously warped their face and body with BeautyCam, I can confirm it's due to Body Dysmorphia. Once I saw my girlfriend warp her image via BeautyCam, I did it myself, but to an unnecessarily extreme level due to my unhealthy mindset. I was suffering anorexia at the time. I feel as if these edits truly go to show how warped one's mind is when they are affected daily by Body Dysmorphia.

    ​@@Luxxannethank you for bringing this up! Most people just want to jump on the bandwagon to make themselves feel superior. It takes courage and a good heart to go against the flow and offer an explanation or defend someone, especially a stranger. I went to school with a girl whose body shape was just like this, slim except for her butt, hips, thighs. As I was skinny except for my own big backside and bigger thighs than I thought a dancer should have, we shared many of the same insecurities. It was early on in our friendship when she said what her condition was and for the life of me I can't remember, but lymphedema is the most likely. On the other hand though, this lady shouldn't be dressed like that in a place that caters to children and families and act all surprised and upset with people gawking ( that's what she was after to get the "views ") and that parents would want to shield their children from that type of display. It's just not normal to want to wear revealing attire to go to a place that's meant for children. Like everything in life, there's more than just one side to things. Thank you again for pointing out that she could have a condition and if so she didn't choose to have that body shape and I'm glad she's accepted herself. But now she needs to work on appropriate attire for certain places, just like everyone else has our own things to work on.

    As a Japanese woman myself…I don’t understand some of these crazily edited photos or plastic surgery either. Mind you that I’m a bit older in terms of “youth pop culture”as an almost 34 yrs old, however, it’s just not attractive to me either! “Catfishing” is not just a Japanese thing and it absolutely exists everywhere, like Aki said. However, it’s sad how it screams nothing but insecurity. Of course I fully understand wanting to look the best you can, but I’m glad I had wise adults and other role models as a teen and youth who taught me to embrace how I naturally look. As an example, what was really so wrong with the way Matt looked before? I truly ask in seriousness! He looked like a perfectly handsome East Asian man to me! Well, he’s definitely not White-Asian mix as far as we all know…I would’ve absolutely found his original look attractive, not saying that I’m attracted to him if you see what I’m saying. . He sure looked adorable with his smile and I’m sad that he looks so morphed now.😢

    As far as I know, a lot of people dealing with body dysmorphia and body image issues that get tons of work done also slap on a bunch of filters because they are still majorly insecure. It is a mental illness after all. Plastic surgery can be great thing for many people, but not addressing the root of the problem can just end up leading many more insecurities piling up. I think a big part of it is that this type of behavior is rewarded in online spaces, whether it be sarcastically, or ppl genuinely liking the editing style.

    Her 🍑 is actually her natural 🍑. It's everything else she's had reduced and sculpted to make it appear even bigger. She used to have more of a tummy that you'd expect on a women that never actually works out or eats healthy. And she's had some face work done too.

    I think I recognize the girl in the second and third photos. I saw a documentary with her, she's had a lot of plastic surgery (I think she said over 100 procedures) to look like a french doll, and yet she edits her photos as much as she does. She's beautiful and seems really sweet, but girl, whyyy 🙃

    Honestly, this 'trend' blows my mind about east Asia. Like, the total disinterest in looking even remotely, passably human. For all the make-up, work and editing that Western influencers use to the point they all look uncannily the same, at least the look itself is vaguely human. Like you could almost believe by random luck someone could be born with those good genetics. But then you see East Asia's 'influencer' beauty standards and it's like they're trying to appeal to Florpblox followers from Eredani Pegasi 6 or something.

I was confused and we both had an art history background so we has a bit of discussion about art and proportions.. but in the end she was mad I didn't "see the beauty" and we havent spoken since.

    Lipedema is a real medical condition that causes your lower reagen to grow large one of my best childhood friends has the condition and it visually makes your butt disproportionately huge and thickens your thighs in some cases it also thickens your calfs and upper arms if that one woman actually has the condition and takes advantage of what she has with only fans I genuinely see nothing wrong with her. Life be life'n and if her butt really is all fake (her thick thighs included) all that she is really doing is helping people that actually has the condition or those with similar conditions feel better about themselves by seeing an influencer present themselves with a similar body type. But that's just how I personally feel I'm sure others may feel differently about it and that's fine

    It's mostly for privacy. That's why people use pictures of food and pets. The doll like faces are meant to be sarcastic and fun. The actor/musician I follow, he only posts half of his face or an eye peeking out from a corner, to his account. His agency made it illegal to distribute his photos and images outside of his fan club and approved platforms. We call exclusive to Japan artists like this "premium boys/girls". Matt is an idol thet plays an android character.
