Are you a lookist? Do you favor people who are deemed “traditionally attractive”? In this next episode of “Why is no one talking about” (where experts cover hot takes on mind, body, food or skin), our new host, actor/TV personality Alison Haislip, dives deep into lookism with philosopher/professor Heather Widdows. Heather’s book “Perfect Me: Beauty as an Ethical Ideal” has been deemed groundbreaking by Vogue, and she’s revealing the 4 global beauty ideals, how to combat lookism and more. (Spoiler: Don’t say, “It’s what’s inside that counts,” because we know that isn’t 100% true all the time.)
