In this episode, Elle dives into the topic of "pretty privilege" and its perceived downsides. She questions whether these so-called downsides are actually just manifestations of misogyny and the general female experience under patriarchy. Elle argues that while pretty privilege does exist and can elevate women above other women, it does not elevate them above men and still serves as a tool to control women's behavior. She discusses how pretty privilege keeps women in a state of "auditioning" for male approval and highlights how the concept ultimately harms womanhood. Elle also touches on the real benefits of being attractive, such as higher earnings and better social treatment, but emphasizes that these advantages do not protect women from misogyny. The episode features a discussion on the halo effect and how cognitive biases related to attractiveness influence social and professional judgments. Elle concludes by encouraging listeners to remain hopeful and proactive, reminding them that while pretty privilege and its implications are complex, understanding and navigating these dynamics can empower women to create positive change in their lives and communities.

In the latest episode of Elle's podcast, the discussion centers around the issue of beauty standards, specifically in relation to the popular TV show 'Love Island.' The topic of conversation revolves around how these women, most of whom are not close to 30, appear to look much older due to cosmetic procedures like Botox and fillers. Elle delves deep into the issue of unrealistic beauty standards and how they are perpetuated throughout society. Elle highlights the cyclical nature of beauty standards, where a certain look becomes popular, gets adopted by the masses, becomes oversaturated, and is then villainized. This cycle is driven by societal sentiments influenced by high-status groups, which are then transformed into beauty trends by marketers. The podcast also touches on the role of celebrities in setting these standards, using Kylie Jenner as a prime example. Elle concludes by pointing out that while individuals can choose which societal pressures to conform to, the pressure to conform will always exist as long as we live within a society. She encourages listeners to be more aware of these pressures and to make conscious choices about which ones to follow.
