40. Pretty Bitches: Lookism & Trans Beauty Standards (Jackie pt.1)

TW: Eating disorder, Suicidality, Transphobia, Transmisogyny
I'm late because I moved across the ocean, but here's another insightful episode. This week, we're back with another straight girl, Jackie, to talk about how rough her life has been being the "objectively beautiful" one. Can you imagine having every single guy fall for you the moment he lays eyes on you? Every gay man's dream! No but seriously, we talk about the pervasion of lookism in our contemporary society through the lens of the beneficiaries.
We also discuss how lookism affects trans people specifically: how Aster unwittingly benefits from society's obsession with beauty, how the gender binary is coerced upon trans people, and how trans women are victims of double jeopardy for both transphobia and misogyny.
