We certainly don’t need to be importing our adult social notions of beauty standards onto children. We’re already doing so much damage on that front through traditional and social media.
Whoever supports this product thinks that kids need to be sexy
The list is long and it hasn’t even been fully revealed yet.
Or that adults who might regret not having started taking care of their skin earlier.
If this was revealing piece of clothing I could get the sexy angle, but this is skincare.
This is marketed for toddlers to prepubescent children, they don’t need skin masks.
Marketing it to kids going through puberty would be a lot less weird because that’s when you DO need to start taking care of your skin.
You’re starting from a false premise that preteen children do not need to take care of their skin.
If you mean regularly cleaning their skin and adhering to the 5Ss when spending time in direct sun then sure, if you mean applying moisturising facial masks and getting dermal peels then no that’s dumb, kids don’t need that
Adults don’t need products like this to take care of their skin.
Because they don’t.
Yes, but is it enough damage?
What if these kids grow up healthy and well adjusted? Had you even considered the risk of that? How will we control them? How will we advertise horrible and pointless bullshit to them? How will we turn them into howling fascists!?
I hope you think before you speak in the future.
There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory, and though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable: I simply am not there.
The inflection on that line is burned into my skull.
Get them while they’re young, and they’ll be yours for life!
