How Digital Beauty Standards Are Messing Us Up with Elise Hu
What has digital culture done to our standards of beauty and to our wallets when we have to spend to reach those standards of beauty. The proliferation of all digital media has wildly influenced how we perceive ourselves and our bodies, often to our detriment. Today we're joined by Elise Hu, a journalist and author who used her time as an NPR correspondent in Korea as a launching pad to explore the brave new world of absurd beauty standards. We also talk about why meat on a stick is the best food group and what we want on our tombstones. Listen to Elise on TED Talks Daily here. Listen to Elise on Forever 35 here.
