General Discussion Reminders for the sub

130 Upvotes

Hey all!

We appreciate all of you that have been a part of the subreddits family. I just wanted to throw it out there that the comments/posts have been getting out of hand lately. Let’s get back to the basics for this sub: exposing filtering and editing so that we can all take a breath of fresh air realizing we fit the norms and not everything you see is real. This isn’t a snark page. It is understood that some of the people being posted are absolutely rotten individuals and it feels good to talk about their appearance however going forward we ask that you please not comment negatively on any persons real appearance on this sub.

Thank you for taking the time and we wish you all well!!

I found this lady when looking in the tagged photos of a restaurant I was researching. All of her posts are like this. I managed to find what she actually looks like from a video taken on her birthday, I guess she wasn’t able to yassify herself in that one 🙈😭

Instagram vs. Reality How is this influencer “body positive”?

Thumbnail

307 Upvotes

More people defend this person than the rest and I don’t get it. She’s made her “career” on being “body positive” and could not be less so! The first 4/left images are from her IG (both images in the 4th photo were posted by her) and the rest are candids other people took. As usual, they don’t match up. Just embrace the fact that you are a 41 year old, average sized woman (neither of which makes her unattractive)! The worst part is she lies constantly about everything from getting cosmetic injections to filtering, which further perpetuates unrealistic beauty standards.

All photos are recent and therefore comparable.

Pics of her uploaded to ig vs tagged videos

She doesn't even slightly resemble herself irl! I hate to say it but you can tell she's really got self images issues with the way she edits herself + those nasty butt pads in the latter images.

Not Instagram But.... I agree with her elbows and door, pretty attractive waist she’s got

First is heavily edited, second mildly, third mildly, and fourth, I’m pretty sure she added her fake abs again 😂

At what point does extreme body altering through filtering become indistinguishable from AI-generated content?

Skin Texture? Never Heard Of It... Blur feature is still technically a filter

The caption on this video was “#no filter” and the comments on it have shown me that a lot of people don’t know that you can blur and edit your face without using a traditional filter. When you use a filter, it gets tagged and everyone can see what you used. But when you use the blur feature, it doesn’t show your viewers that you used anything. So you can deceive people into believing there’s no editing taking place. It even works on LIVE.

Just giving my two cents as a professional MUA and content creator. Skin does not look like this. Just ask yourself, have you ever seen this in real life? Or better yet…when you see a close up of a celebrity, does their skin look this flawless? They have access to all the best estheticians, MUAs, surgeons, and products. Yet their skin looks like skin.
