Being on Dr. Phil yesterday was surreal! His sincere endorsements of More Than a Body blew us away. We are so grateful for the opportunity to get our work to a new audience and for all who have supported our work along the way! #morethanabody @HarperCollins @harvestbooks

Happy to be included in this AP piece on the fact that digital manipulation of photos isn’t only a media and ad industry standard used to sell unreal ideals, but it is also a personal standard for many people who post themselves online & feel pressure to meet these ideals.

Happy to have contributed to this MTV News story in cosmetic surgery trends changing at the speed of light! #bodyimage #morethanabody
Social media isn't just influencing the way we think — it's also influencing the way we look. Last year, 75 percent of plastic surgeons saw a spike in patients under 30. @TheDInferno has what you #NeedToKnow about social media's impact on the latest wave of body trends

Honored to be interviewed by @AubreyNPR for this story about using screen time more mindfully to improve body image. If you’re familiar with our work, you know we’ve been preaching about media fasts for years! If your feed is filled with body-centric content, it’s a game changer.
New research found teens and young adults who even briefly cut time on social media gained self esteem. Try these 5 tips to help them — and yourself — improve screen-life balance. n.pr/3kuykGN

Thanks! The last chapter, “The Reunion,” is our fave (if we do say so ourselves). #morethanabody

We’ve been talking about it for years. We’ve got prob 30 pages in our book, More Than a Body, about it.
Extreme modesty and purity culture is sexualization. I wonder when we’ll be able to talk about that.

Co-signed 100%. This is sexism, not bad CGI.
You’re going to think I’m nuts, but the difference here is because one is a woman and one is a man. The lack of detail and wrinkles is because leading women typically must appear to have flawless skin.

A doctor prioritizing a male’s experience w/ a female’s body instead of her own experience inside her body is peak sexual objectification. Women are policed, evaluated, & even operated on according to a heterosexual male view of our bodies in every part of our lives. A thread.

In a culture where we're all immersed in sexism from birth, we all uphold & reinforce it against ourselves and each other — it’s not exclusive to men. Seeing women as objects for others' consumption is so prevalent that it seeps into our own self-perceptions.

This violent, dehumanizing BS happens because we live in a world where women are bodies FIRST and people SECOND. We are appendages, sexualized “others,” parts to be looked at, judged, used, and abused. This is horrific.
