Bout to rant on some stuff not to do with Psyche herself specifically but more so to do with people's expectations, behaviours, attraction etc.
Seeing the video of her when she was absolutely without a doubt underweight in comparison to her now being fit as hell makes me happy for her. I'm willing to bet she feels like a million bucks relative to that moment in time. Both men and women fall prey to their own ideas on how others perceive them and how they think they should look (I mean I'm in a way feeding into that right now but come on we're adults either end of the extreme is going to concern others)
For ladies it seems to always be in the thin category. I'm not entirely sure where it stems from. I don't know if its dudes negging women on this just to try and manipulate the insecurity and thus continuing it. I don't know if its ladies themselves being bitter to one another to keep it going.
For all intents and purposes ladies are quite literally "meant" to have a little more weight on em. They store fat differently than us. It is easier for them to do so since at the end of the day. They're the ones who end up growing new us. And doing so requires some more energy... If attraction is supposed to be linked to fertility. Being severely underweight would be a direct negative in terms of attractiveness. For us men, it makes more sense to be attracted to ladies who have some meat on them (to an extent like everything)
So like what exactly is setting this supposed beauty standard. That which women feel the need to starve themselves to attain it, it doesn't make sense to me. Again I'm hijacking Psyche's thread here to talk about this.
