      Like, they never were. Healthy middle weight women are called ugly 100x more than underweight women. The ideal has always been "Unhealthy but make it sexy." I've always been naturally skinny but once I lost 10 pounds from stress, I became dangerously underweight (I was exactly Twiggy's weight/height) I realized it was the only time in my life I could be a model because it's not natural for most women to have flat stomachs unless they are dehydrated...and I've never been overweight, just carried weight in my hips. By that standard I was my most beautiful but I felt awful.
      (And for people who are naturally 10-20 lbs over the "healthy" weight they're constantly dieting to lose that which is bad for them. Some people just carry weight and it's good for them. It doesn't surprise me they did a longitudinal study that slightly overweight people have the longest lives, even above "ideal" BMI! And being underweight cuts way more years off your life, it's actually scary, on average 10-20 years(it's 25 years if you had anorexia) vs 4.5 years for overweight people but anyway that's just me getting the word out that what we deem beautiful (thinness vs fatness) has nothing to do with real beauty & everything to do with effed up ideals.

      @@samaraisnt I'm sorry, I obviously don't want to question your personal experience, but what you say there is just inaccurate.
      For one, dangerously skinny women being considered the height of beauty simply wasn't a thing for most of history and in most cultures, and most men today aren't more attracted to them either. It's an industry that tells us these things today, but reapplying this example to the past doesn't fly.
      Of course, there were dangerous beauty ideals, I don't deny that. But saying the ideal would have always been identical to or notably and largely overlapped with being unhealthy is taking it a step too far. What's so unhealthy about "medium sized breasts" or "high forehead" or "blonde hair" or "bright lips"? Yes, there are lotos feet and lip plates and all that. But claiming "the ideal has always been unhealthy..." is simply false.

      Yeah, I mean a lot of our current beauty standards revolve around skinniness at any cost and it is not healthy. I saw a video the other day of a woman who lost 75 lbs in 2 months, which is WAY too fast and very dangerous, and everyone in the comments was like "don't worry that your hair is falling out, you're so beautiful in so many other ways!" They were just so excited for her "success" even though she was showing signs of malnutrition. It was very concerning. There's another video where a different woman is going into the details of how she's really sick but doctors don't know what's wrong with her, and she's lost a ton of weight and might be dying, but then says "but guess who's gonna be wearing a bikini at the beach this summer! ...if I feel well enough to go..."

    I always think of that line from Heavenly Creatures, when Kate Winslet's character says, "All the best people have bad chests and bone diseases." Funny how we humans glamorize such a terrible illness, maybe out of desperation, or trying to look on the bright side? We are weird. Love these little bits of art & literature history mentioned here. I've had a twisted fascination with TB ever since being exposed to it when living in Japan in the 1990s (it's unfortunately still fairly commonly spread in Asia). Hooray for antibiotics (when used properly)

      The word binge has some negative, and sometimes triggerin, associations in some folks minds. Both those who have had eatin disorders characterised usin that word and also for those who have found themselves drinking in a way characterised usin that word.
      Instd of "binge watching" or "binging", i myself, as someone who deals with alcoholism, prefer to use or see the word "marathon" or any similar term.
      It also feels better to me bcuz it doesnt characterise the activity of watchin somethin in one sitting as inherently negative in the same way the word binge does.

    Shout out to the modern day women (and men!) with ME/CFS, a disease also psychologised for many decades due to poor science, preventing research into physiological causes.
    We look back on the woo that filled in the gaps before we understood TB, cancer, diabetes and just about every other disease, and it’s easy to think these are problems of that past. They are not.
    Due to decades of under-funding into post-viral ME/CFS, we are very far behind the curve in understanding the sequelae of covid, as an ever-increasing proportion of our population become disabled. Patients with the symptom cluster that is ME/CFS following Covid are still treated as though it can be cured with psychological remedies, or worse with exercise and a bit of gumption. This takes sick but functioning people and renders them bedbound.
    For many diseases, even in the most modern health systems, we are still in the dark ages.

People did strange things too to follow upper classes - like the rich who had rotting teeth from sugar, lower classes would add fake stains to their teeth. Whatever was popularized - that often being the wealthy, people did anything to copy - we are fickled creatures aren’t we 😂

    Before today, the only thing I knew about TB was that my mom - a 35+ year LPN - always tested positive.
    So I guess it’s more than the eyes, thinness, and deep-soul-here-for-a-good-time affect. She has ALL those things, she never lost them.
    Could it be evolutionary? It isn’t opportunistic at this point in time. We are both happily situated in our own lives.
    I would welcome any and all thoughts.
    I should call her, regardless.

    The atropine in common bindweeds is less risky than belladonna. Datura is probably the best in the nightshade family for usefulness.

      If we were watching this video on Tiktok it would loop when you get to the end, so he'd say "Even though this painting was made all the way back in 1887..." It's a common trope in short video formats like Tiktok and CZcams Shorts, but this video is too long to be a short so it doesn't loop.
      (If he wanted to go the extra mile to make it loop more perfectly, he could have recorded the end and start of the video in the same take, since there are other cuts in the middle. Not that it really matters for the quality of the video though.)

    this showed up in my reccomended i have a question that has nothing to do with the content of this video:
    why isnt this a short for me? like, this is the sort of video youtube "shorts" (verb: makes into a short) right? and thats why it was in my recommended, right? because shorts stay in their little shorts section of youtube, so theyre not supposed to be recommended on four minute long landscape vlog brothers videos..........right?

    The anorexic look was popular in the 19th century. I guess taste in beauty does go in cycles. One hundred years before Toulouse-Lautrec was the end of the Baroque period with the likes of Rubens and his voluptuous women.
