KYLIE’S TOXIC POUT

-

WE HEAR endless chatter about the ills of toxic masculinit­y — but what about the toxic femininity that’s warping the lives of young girls?

The news this week that everyounge­r women — some even under 16 — are turning to Botox and fillers in pursuit of the Instagram-perfect ‘rich girl’ face is a case in point.

Since when did having a face like a sex doll become the pinnacle of female ambition? Since the success of ‘influencer­s’ such as the egregious Kylie Jenner, 22.

Jenner (pictured), a member of the Kardashian franchise, made her immense fortune (she is America’s youngest self-made billionair­e) selling lipgloss to impression­able teenagers seeking a pout like hers.

Only, of course, that pout wasn’t hers at all, but the result of fillers, as before and after pictures of her clearly show.

The fact that her entire brand is built on such fundamenta­l dishonesty tells you all you need to know about Jenner — and about the shallow world in which our girls are now forced to survive.
