There isn't anything inherently wrong with wanting our bodies to reflect who we are as individuals. Many of us feel a positive sense of self-appreciation when we trim our hair, get a piercing, a tattoo, or even choose an outfit.

There is nothing bad about working out, becoming stronger, and utilizing that in order to gain some confidence in oneself. Having regard for your body and its solidarity is a healthy thing.

However, your body is only a part of you as you are not characterized by the beauty beliefs that you see around you. And this applies to both males and females.

Pop culture can fill our vulnerable personalities with a wide range of unhealthy and incorrect thoughts regarding how we and our lives should look. However, when actress Natalie Dormer made a statement concerning the issue, saying that men are also objectified as much as women, she most likely didn't have the foggiest idea about the stir she was going to cause on the internet.

Concentrating on the point made by Dormer, it calls out television programs and movies for the stereotypes that they propagate with regards to unreasonable male standards, particularly in their physical appearance. All those who took part in it impeccably clarified why looks are not the most essential thing on the planet and why it's considerably more important to focus on your wellbeing instead.

Men are as objectified as women

You can say this conversation began during an interview Dormer did with Radio Times, where the entertainer reacted to Emma Thompson's past comments about sexism and ageism in films. At first, Thompson said that a few types of sexism and obnoxiousness towards ladies have become more entrenched and, indeed, more pervasive and that, generally speaking, opportunities for ladies are still "totally s**t."

Dormer added that, from what she has seen, male actors face the same amount of objectification as females, and they experience the ill effects of it as well. Below are what individuals have been saying about the tumblr thread on different social media platforms.

Why unreasonable standards exist...

One funny thing is that when we attempt to get away from these pictures and go, for instance, to the seaside, we sit down and our reptilian cerebrum adjusts our bodies, so our stomachs don't look too protruded. And this is just one of many examples, but we would love to know what you think about this.
