À propos de ce contenu audio

What if beauty isn’t about self-expression, but about power? In this episode, I revisit Naomi Wolf’s groundbreaking 1990 book The Beauty Myth and explore its relevance today.

I share my own conflicted response to the book, unpack Wolf’s argument that the real issue is a lack of choice, and connect it to Pamela Anderson’s recent makeup-free appearances. What does it mean when a 56-year-old woman is called “brave” for showing her natural face? And why do wrinkles still provoke trolling in a culture that claims to celebrate “authenticity”?

In this episode:

  • The core argument of The Beauty Myth and its lasting impact
  • My personal reflections on choice, adornment, and self-esteem
  • Pamela Anderson as a modern case study in beauty politics
  • Why the act of going makeup-free is still perceived as courageous

Tune in to explore beauty, power, ageing, and the ongoing struggle for women’s freedom.
