This mentality is an advertisers DREAM, because too many people fall for said illusion and spend big money attempting to fit in and be perfect looking. Every once and a while however, some sheep do wake up. They do see the images of perfection as the unrealistic projections that they are, and are able to detach and just be ordinary.
Which unlike airbrushing, is normal.
Women are often targeted because as we women know, our value is often judged by our looks. In this photo series, a group of MEN are showing everyone how unrealistic male underwear ads are, and how the "average guy" would look in the same scenarios.
It's no fun to be sublimally bullied because you don't fit the contrived image of what beauty is supposed to be. It's nice to know that men, ever the oglers themselves, don't like to be painted as asthetic underachievers either.
Just let us live. As we are.
Photoshop was not created by Maybelline so um... #fuckoff
