Fake feminist men - wolf in sheeps clothing | Brocialism
Bryony Claire 2024-07-21 | Broscialists, fake feminist men - the walking red flag hiding behind a green flag and a bunch of admiration in their wake. Cody Ko has recently been getting called out for his actions...however he's such a golden boy and "good guy" that people are instead blaming Tana, similar things have happened with ImAlexx and Gus Johnson, heck so many others too.

Starving for a role - method acting or abusive directors?
Bryony Claire 2024-10-05 | Method acting is often considered the most "serious" kind of acting, where you really "become" the person you're playing. But what about when directors have a certain "look" for a role they want, but they want that name attached to it so the actor has no other choice but to change their entire body to suit the role, no matter the impacts on them. And why is this so celebrated, it's often the way that actors finally "get taken seriously" even though the sudden, drastic weight loss, or gain, can have really bad long term health affects. For Joker: Folie a Deux, both Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga went on an extreme diet quickly to be "role ready" even though the movie happens 2 years after the first. And, we can't forget the impacts of this on the audience, especially with the rise of indie sleaze, thin is in and ozempic ED Support if you need it: USA: nationaleatingdisorders.org UK: beateatingdisorders.org.uk mentalhealth-uk.org/help-and-information/conditions/eating-disorders/more-information Canada: nedic.ca Germany: edreferral.com/germany/treatment-center Australia: au.reachout.com/mental-health-issues/eating-disorders/eating-disorder-helplines-support-services Aotearoa (New Zealand): ed.org.nz/getting-help Let's connect: IG: instagram.com/bryonyclaire_vegan/?hl=en Patreon: patreon.com/BryonyClaire business enquiries only: bryonyclaire.vegan@gmail.com timestamps: 00:00 TW - ED 00:52 Joker: Folie a deux and role requirements 02:08 this is how the character *should* be 11:06 the effects on us 18:17 final thoughts Video and channels recommended: @BroeyDeschanel youtube.com/watch?v=AVWGyuBFgzw historical fashion girlies: @AbbyCox @NicoleRudolph @MorganDonneryoutube.com/c/Karolina%C5%BBebrowskax Sources:theguardian.com/film/article/2024/sep/04/i-probably-shouldnt-do-this-again-joaquin-phoenix-and-lady-gaga-talk-about-difficult-joker-diets news24.com/channel/Movies/Features/Natalie-Portman-I-thought-I-was-going-to-die-20110207 hollywoodlife.com/2019/02/01/anne-hathaway-sick-les-miserables-diet-lost-25-pounds fandomwire.com/no-i-touched-em-deadpool-creator-sets-the-record-straight-on-hugh-jackmans-muscles-at-55-as-fans-still-doubt-wolverine-stars-dedication-to-the-role pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24277724 eonline.com/photos/31879/the-hard-truth-about-black-swan businessinsider.com/actors-who-lost-weight-for-roles-2017-6#christian-bale-stopped-eating-and-exercising-to-drop-63-pounds-for-the-machinist-6 interviewmagazine.com/film/adam-driver-cover#page2 capitalfm.com/news/celebrity/cherry-movie-weight-loss theconversation.com/how-extreme-dieting-can-affect-bone-health-228321
Can you be friends with your political foe? Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes
Bryony Claire 2024-09-22 | Taylor Swift has come under hot water for her friendship with Brittany Mahomes because they appear to be from polar opposite political standing, with Taylor endorsing Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, democrats, and Brittany liking an instagram post from Trump.

Uglies - everyone is ugly (or at least we think we are)
Bryony Claire 2024-09-15 | Uglies is the latest YA dystopian movie to hit our screens, adapted from the book by Scott Westerfeld. Though the dystopia depicted is eerily similar to the world we live in today, especially with how far technology has come at being able to warp us into our "perfect" selves, and see how we "could" look by getting surgeries, injectables, and constant tweaks to keep trying to reach this ever moving goal of "pretty enough". Digitized dysmorphia has become a real issue where the altering of people's faces online has been done so much and so prolifically that we're becoming accustomed to these heightened AI images and saddened when the mirror doesn't reflect what we expect.

Parasocial Intolerance | The audience is the main character now
Bryony Claire 2024-09-02 | Stop leaving yourself vulnerable to data breaches. Go to my sponsor aura.com/bryonyclaire to get a 14-day free trial and see if any of your data has been exposed Parasocial relationships have been called into question with Chappell Roan recently stating her boundaries, but that got so much backlash from fans, it got me thinking how we are not only treating celebrities but eachother. If you don't act "perfect" all the time, if you're not "performing and productive" all the time, you're the problem. Look at what happened to Simone Biles when she decided to no longer participate in the Olympics in 2020 for her mental health, her brand was damaged and she had to go on a massive redemption arc after having people hound her and act like she did the "ultimate betrayal". It comes up in our workplaces, where mental health isn't actually taken seriously, we don't like to see the "ugliness" of "off days" and want this perfection constantly, but is this sustainable in order to keep up with the brand facade?

Have pets REALLY replaced children, though? Or do people just take better care of their pets these days, like they always should have, and it seems "abnormal"? Are people genuinely not wanting to have children or are they unable to afford them so they get a pet (or more) to "fill the hole"?

Mr Beast - too big to fail? When the patriarchy no longer serves you
Bryony Claire 2024-08-17 | Mr Beast, Jake Weddle, DogPack404, and many others have been on the hot list the past couple of weeks...and not for great reasons. Let's dive into this phenomenon, of "the tipping point" when bros finally call out one of their own and decide to stop simping for him because it could benefit them. With more being revealed everyday, is this a sign of things crumbling?

hateful, miserable, crazy cat ladies youre weird, bro
Bryony Claire 2024-08-11 | Survey is now closed (18th Aug) thanks for participating! The crazy cat lady stigma used to have a nasty sting, but it's lacking that edge now, there has been one hell of a flip. JD Vance has slammed cat ladies in media for years, but how come this insult which hurt so deeply for decades has now become almost like a battle cry which brings people together instead? Upsetting ladies and cats - this is how you lose an election, seriously, there's cat ladies for Kamala now, and I don't know if you realise this, but you're on the internet right now, and it's run by cats! Even Tim Walz came out and said it, this is just weird. Why is it that people keep on trying to treat childfree and childless people as less than, as people not fulfilling their "purpose" in life? I mean, how many times have you rejected a guy and the comeback is "yeah? well you're gonna live all alone in your house with your cats!" like...don't threaten us with a good time, dude.

Age limits on jobs - ageism or protecting the future?
Bryony Claire 2024-08-04 | Ageism is still an "acceptable" form of discrimination in society, but is it needed in order to protect the future? Is there any justification to impose age limits to ensure the future doesn't suck, or is the problem actually something else entirely, and what can we do about it? Thank you again to everyone who participated in the survey, this would have been a very different video without your input! Joe Biden recently stepped down, and people were calling for him to do so for ages from concerns about his age, but it's not just Joe, it's many others in positions of power who seem to cling to those positions well past typical "retirement" time, where they're making rules for a world they won't be facing the consequences of. The same could be said for all workplaces too, so, let's talk about it!

Was diet culture in the 2000s THAT bad?! Is history repeating?
Bryony Claire 2024-07-09 | The 2000's has been back style wise for a couple of years, but how bad was it back then? Were we over-exaggerating the normalization of fat jokes, fatphobia, diet culture? Or is it worse than we remember? Me merely mentioning the names of Jessica Simpson, Bridget Jones, Britney Spears, Natalie from Love Actually to others like Nicole Richie, Kate Moss or the entire show of America's next top model....you're conjuring up memories, right? Today, we're dealing with diet culture thanks to thinks like Ozempic, Wegovy and seemingly most celebrities losing a huge amount of weight quickly, tiktok has made it really easy for people to fall into bad patterns, but everything is under the veil of "health" so it's ok right?

Growing up average, comparison and the marks it leaves behind
Bryony Claire 2024-06-03 | Growing up average is not the main character in a movie energy...unless you get a makeover and are revealed to be pretty all along! The average person is perhaps the friend, the co-worker, the annoying nemesis, but never the one who "gets the girl" or whatever the prize of the movie may be. Every generation compares themselves to their peers, it's part of life, however our social "circles" have grown thanks to social media, expanding how many people we can compare ourselves to and "average" just doesn't cut it. This can affect our self image, our confidence and self esteem for years due to how conventional beauty is heralded as the best thing someone can be. And what about the darker side of never "measuring up"? Whether this means someone becomes reclusive, views conventionally attractive people as "bad", gets taken advantage of due to low self esteem, becomes the bully themselves, pursues surgery, or even engages in dangerous or risky behaviour... And what can we do about it? 🍉 donation: The Palestine Children’s Relief Fundpcrf.net Body neutrality info:sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1740144523001031 edition.cnn.com/2023/05/29/health/body-neutrality-wellness/index.html wellandgood.com/chronic-illness-body-positivity Timestamps: 00:00 intro 01:27 Growing up average 05:49 Comparison, now at your fingertips! 13:49 what happens if you don't evolve from an ugly duckling? 23:55 Pretty people are not to be trusted 29:24 "as if someone would touch you" 32:13 Final thoughts Videos recommended: @KhadijaMbowe youtube.com/watch?v=hmqq9_XTelM and youtube.com/watch?v=W9ussxD32tE @TeeNoir youtube.com/watch?v=X-W9zSXHHjA&t=610s @gremlita youtube.com/watch?v=Aa4bR5ZO3dM . @leenanorms youtube.com/watch?v=juLMtjbHbAE @rachellydiab youtube.com/@rachellydiab @ContraPoints youtube.com/watch?v=aPhrTOg1RUk @CheyenneLin youtube.com/watch?v=sY51_sy-T24 AlexLDN: instagram.com/p/CeO1ihxo8rk/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=embed_video_watch_again tiktok.com/@dermatologysurgeon/video/7338202586740313386 Sources:xonecole.com/quinta-brunson-power-embracing-average theconversation.com/women-of-color-spend-more-than-8-billion-on-bleaching-creams-worldwide-every-year-153178#:~:text=A%20common%20practice&text=The%20practice%20is%20not%20new,African%20women%20bleach%20their%20skin. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5933578 britannica.com/science/body-modifications-and-mutilationsbradley.edu/sites/bodyproject/disability/modification/#:~:text=Two%20prominent%20historical%20examples%20of,were%20broken%20and%20folded%20under.psychologytoday.com/nz/basics/social-comparison-theory jedfoundation.org/resource/understanding-social-comparison-on-social-media/#:~:text=The%20tendency%20to%20compare%20ourselves,mental%20and%20emotional%20health%20impact. mindlessmag.com/post/loving-your-chronically-ill-self verywellmind.com/envy-vs-jealousy-is-there-a-difference-7109842 apnews.com/article/6361b8de2200469d8f423b8fecdee771 tinyurl.com/USAtodaytrumpdeny seattletimes.com/seattle-news/people-are-more-likely-to-believe-sexual-harassment-claims-from-women-who-are-young-and-conventionally-attractive-uw-study-says tinyurl.com/supportarticlebipoc
Man or bear: how womens safety issues came out of the woods 🐻🌳👨
Bryony Claire 2024-05-21 | The hypothetical question to women was asked: would you rather be lost in the woods with a bear or a man? It was just an innocuous "would you rather" but it created a huge heated debate...which then got incredibly ugly and dark. It was a thought exercise to talk about the sadly real issue of violence against women and allowed us a way to have an engaging conversation about it, and it just got worse and worse...

Oversharing, Trauma Dumping, Cringe, and our hatred of vulnerability 😬
Bryony Claire 2024-05-13 | Get your exclusive NordVPN deal here ➼ nordvpn.com/bryony It's risk-free with Nord's 30-day money-back guarantee! Oversharing is not pretty, it's awkward and uncomfortable for the person who is oversharing and the person being overshared to. But what truly is oversharing? Is anything beyond the weather a topic "too real" for us to handle? Why can't we cope with the fact people cry and have a full range of human experiences, instead expecting a perfect façade at all times?

The uncomfortable conversation about Fandom and consumerism
Bryony Claire 2024-04-29 | Fandoms bring people together over a shared interest or love for a person, a game, franchise, a sport, a music group, pretty much anything you can think of can have a fandom for it. You can find people like you, you can share your favorite aspects, discuss all sorts which you can't talk about with others and feel like you've found a community who understands you. But what about the issue when you have to buy into them to be considered to be a true fan, what happens when the industry creates pressure to buy multiple copies of merch, to stream the artists work on repeat, to constantly be updating your fan collection with more...well we get into an uncomfortable conversation here, don't we? After all, if you're not spending all your time and money dedicated to the thing you love...can you even count yourself as a true fan?

Bryony Claire 2024-04-27 | Patriarchy approved makeup is nothing new, it's the "no makeup" look and no shade if you enjoy doing this at all - what I'm addressing here is this strange juxtaposition when people of all genders actually have changed the way they use the tools which created these expectations for their own creative outlet, making art in their own way and how that gets used to vilify the person because they're straying from "the proper way", hurling insults at them instead accounts mentioned:instagram.com/looksbyotto/?hl=en instagram.com/sorokairyna/?hl=en instagram.com/way_of_yaw/?hl=en
The misconception of my safety fears - this has been eating me up
Bryony Claire 2024-04-19 | This has honestly been eating me up seeing people's reactions to me saying I wouldn't meet up with a stranger who didn't have a social media presence - I should have framed it better to be how I was framing this in my head - a stranger sliding into DM's and wanting to meet up and them not having any social media presence to verify them on, that's so creepy, scary and dangerous to me hence me picturing all the creepiest things and scenarios and sharing my lack of trust and making jokes about that in the video. It wasn't meant to be the focus of the video at all, nor a reflection on people who genuinely don't want to have social media, it was just a quick little funny framing devise as we get into the bigger issue I actually wanted to talk about from your great survey responses

Would you elect a prime minister or president if you saw them when they were going through unfiltered awkward growing pains? What about if they were shirt posting when they were a teenager? What about if they had images of themselves inebriated online? What if they filmed dances and posted them to tiktok? What if they did this even when they were an "adult" aka over 18? You know, existing as themselves online, less curated, vibing and living life. What about the children who have had their life shared without their full informed consent?

Thank you again to everyone who participated in the survey - I really appreciate it! Shaming is so prevalent across the world, it's taught to us as children, even, but often masked as other things (polite, decent, respectable). Yet the lessons are still taught, through snide remarks (aka being labelled "fast"), controlling clothing, controlling who you can/can't be friends with all the way to what popstar you're even allowed to listen to (remember the panic about Britney Spears?). It's closely tied to purity culture, which has seeped into much of the western world, even if people haven't been raised as religious, it's lessons, in particular around controlling women's bodies, are all around us.

The job market sucks and companies are not only turning to AI to try and replace jobs, but also to do the hiring process too, thanks to ATS! In order to apply for a job these days, the process has gotten progressively longer and more tedious than ever, as you have to submit your CV, your customized cover letter, re-type out all the information in your CV again, do psychometric testing AND even have a video interview with AI. All of this without a person actually being involved at any point - so you know nothing about what the company is like nor the people you'll be working with. Ah, this is progress...right?

Women are entering their breakup era - and men are lagging behind
Bryony Claire 2024-03-04 | Are women entering their breakup era? Well, let's see, shall we? Women are celebrating single life as opposed to just dreading it, women are not settling for being a mother to their partner anymore, women are valuing themselves as individuals - not just based on their proximity to a man and it's been proven that single childfree women are happier so... hmm. But none of this means straight women don't WANT a romantic relationship with men, it's just that there's almost a regressive issue that needs to be tackled here as some men are refusing to come along on the journey to make the world a more inclusive place, and wanting patriarchal rule to stay and it's affecting our relationships.

Office siren trend - work appropriate and the ongoing battle of objectification

However, we're still dealing with inappropriate behavior in the office, people still can't speak up if they're being preyed upon and what's most annoying, to me, is that we have women policing how other women dress still to this day.

The necessity of higher education in an unaffordable capitalistic hellscape
Bryony Claire 2024-02-12 | College, university, these noble and prestigious institutions teach us all we need to know in life...but do they? Does everyone have to go in order to survive in this capitalistic hellscape? And if they do, why is it not more directly linked with a straight pipeline to the workforce?

Higher education isnt the golden ticket we think it is 🎓💸
Bryony Claire 2024-01-29 | The earning power after attending higher education doesn't actually equate to being able to change someone's class in most cases and people are struggling to pay for the education they're told they need to be able to even get a simple entry level job to begin with. Higher education was seen as the meritocracy golden ticket but this pressure and normalization of everyone needing a degree has seemingly just increased the disparity between the rich and the poor at every step and honestly created a more ableist disparity too Let's connect: IG: instagram.com/bryonyclaire_vegan/?hl=en business enquiries only: bryonyclaire.vegan@gmail.com timestamps:" 00:00 intro 04:11 survey 06:41 pipeline to higher education 13:25 financial issues working against people without privilege 22:14 financial aid, scholarships and inflexibility 26:57 family expectations Recommended articles:jedfoundation.org/resource/first-generation-students-pressure-to-be-perfect pbs.org/independentlens/blog/how-todays-high-school-students-face-high-pressure-in-a-grind-culture salon.com/2021/09/12/other-oriented-perfectionism-parenting focusforhealth.org/kids-are-not-alright-how-trauma-affects-development @VICE youtube.com/watch?v=Qkz0Fyhzpts Sources:iesalc.unesco.org/en/2020/12/23/understanding-access-to-higher-education-in-the-last-two-decades cnbc.com/2023/09/26/todays-graduates-make-less-than-their-parents-adjusted-for-inflation.html cnbc.com/2019/11/05/millennials-earn-20-percent-less-than-boomersdespite-being-better-educated.html businessinsider.com/most-prestigious-private-preschools-nyc-how-to-get-in-parents-consultants#the-episcopal-schoolin-the-city-of-new-york-5 atomlearning.com/blog/differences-between-primary-prep-schools kingsschools.org/blog/prep-school-vs-high-school make-it-in-germany.com/en/living-in-germany/family-life/school-system euractiv.com/section/non-discrimination/news/experts-criticise-inequality-in-german-schools dw.com/en/has-germanys-state-education-system-failed/a-67781684 rnz.co.nz/news/political/490832/apprenticeship-scheme-would-be-permanent-under-labour-government renews.co.nz/election-issues-why-are-so-many-students-skipping-school https://solidarity.net.au/highlights/making-students-pay-30-years-since-the-end-of-free-education/http://tinyurl.com/guardianaus renews.co.nz/how-we-racked-up-16-billion-in-student-debt-in-nz/#:~:text=But%20in%201962%2C%20a%20generous,first%20flat%20rate%20tertiary%20fee https://ischool.uw.edu/podcasts/dtctw/first-womans-college-diploma#:~:text=However%2C%20that%20was%20not%20the,now%20known%20as%20Wesleyan%20College.1881 https://www.adelaide.edu.au/about/university-profile/history#fulfilling-a-progressive-visionhistoricengland.org.uk/research/inclusive-heritage/womens-history/visible-in-stone/university/#:~:text=Despite%20passing%20university%20examinations%2C%20women,Oxford%2C%20and%201948%20at%20Cambridge. bestcolleges.com/news/analysis/2020/07/17/history-privilege-higher-education cnbc.com/2021/04/22/student-loan-forgiveness-where-members-of-congress-stand.html intelligent.com/1970-v-2020-how-working-through-college-has-changed usatoday.com/story/opinion/voices/2023/10/27/student-loan-debt-college-tuition-solution-pay-forward/71326615007 forbes.com/sites/prestoncooper2/2023/08/22/new-study-investigates-why-elite-colleges-favor-rich-kids/?sh=6bd79e775fa5 vanityfair.com/style/2019/07/to-cheat-and-lie-in-la-college-admissions-scandal bestcolleges.com/student-finance/fafsa-income-limits bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/why-students-dont-get-enough-financial-aid/#reduction pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27830404 nytimes.com/2014/07/30/upshot/when-the-college-admissions-battle-starts-at-age-3.html cbsnews.com/sacramento/news/uc-davis-economics-professor-there-is-no-american-dream timeshighereducation.com/news/social-mobility-no-easier-in-englands-modern-meritocracy-than-in-medieval-oligarchy/415716.article ifs.org.uk/news/social-mobility-continues-fall-and-moving-harder-if-you-grow-north-or-midlands auckland.ac.nz/en/fmhs/study-with-us/maori-and-pacific-at-the-faculty/maori-and-pacific-admission-schemes.html rnz.co.nz/news/political/490832/apprenticeship-scheme-would-be-permanent-under-labour-government nzherald.co.nz/business/apprenticeship-vs-degree-who-earns-more-in-a-lifetime/NAB3SWXGIUS375TYU26R5MQNOY stuff.co.nz/business/money/114924553/five-ways-the-global-financial-crisis-hurt-millennials nber.org/system/files/chapters/c12862/c12862.pdf cnbc.com/2021/04/08/older-millennials-with-student-debt-say-their-loans-werent-worth-it.html
Pretending Covid is over is hurting us all
Bryony Claire 2024-01-15 | I truly hope I only have to make 1 video centering on covid and it's ongoing impacts on us, but hey, I've been disappointed before so it could happen again. From governments letting people down, to media downplaying the severity of covid, to the inaccessibility of vaccinations and the fact people aren't even getting sick leave. Oh, and did I mention the businesses using intimidation practices to get people not to mask or even say when they have covid? Yeah. This whole pretending thing is actually making things worse for everyone, except the rich of course...I wonder how that happened?

The hell of sad singles set ups & the need for found family
Bryony Claire 2023-12-18 | Amatonormativity is present all year round, but the festive season really brings it out in full force. But what if you want to be single? What if you're aro or ace? What if you don't "just want to settle"? What if you're in a relationship and it's genuinely bad? All these valid points so often get brushed aside by people who are meant to care about us the most. But as I've been showing over this series, sometimes our blood relatives can be the ones who can hurt us the most, not accept us for who we are, and mean it feels like there isn't actually "family" there at all. It's why found family is so important, at least in my opinion, and something which can often run far deeper than traditional "family ties" Let's connect: IG: instagram.com/bryonyclaire_vegan/?hl=en business enquiries only: bryonyclaire.vegan@gmail.com Timestamps: 00:00 another horrible holiday gathering 02:58 Amatonormativity is the "only" path to happiness 06:05 single women are happier - it's true! 09:24 People expect respect and equality in a relationship - a tall ask 13:20 What if your relationship is bad? 15:53 Found family is everything Videos recommended: @TaraMooknee youtube.com/watch?v=gsW3VsraJqo @PhilosophyTube youtube.com/watch?v=FkuW7uKG6l8 IG account ILoveFarahD : instagram.com/ilovefarideh/?hl=en Resource to easily share for aro/ace folk: verywellmind.com/what-does-it-mean-to-be-aromantic-5189571 Studies referenced about women doing more work in cis-het relationships:pewresearch.org/social-trends/2023/04/13/in-a-growing-share-of-u-s-marriages-husbands-and-wives-earn-about-the-same cbsnews.com/news/women-breadwinners-tripled-since-1970s-still-doing-more-unpaid-work What Are Men Doing While Women Perform Extra Unpaid Labor?

wtf does age appropriate even mean? Policing respectability
Bryony Claire 2023-12-11 | Women must be ageless forever, wait, what? Well, you have to LOOK ageless...what does that mean? Create a mirage where you blend into an undefinable age? Oh, you mean look "respectable". Respectability is a notion which really controls all aspects of our lives, there's rules to follow for every age but it starts from childhood around girls bodies, with new twists and turns to endure through all stages.

Compulsory College - why are we forcing kids down the same path?
Bryony Claire 2023-12-04 | The school to higher education pipeline is a forceful one, but not everybody wants to go into university/college/tertiary education, and not every job requires it, yet the pressure remains the same. It's seen as the "only" path according to pretty much everybody though, oh, and don't study something useless and fulfilling, you gotta study something which will land you in a good job - despite the fact that the job market hasn't kept up with inflation, it's still a must. There's such inherent classism that's present in this idea, if you don't go to uni - you're worthless, and we're projecting that onto our kids even. Let's chat!

Every generation has internalized and passed on this messaging, taking on many different forms from Almond moms who count calories not only for themselves but loved ones and encourage "whole food" eating in an overbearing way, snack free households which are another form of the Almond mom where snacks are an apple and processed foods are terrible, all the way to "regular" households where family members just shame each other! 🎶It's the most judgmental time of the year 🎶 And somehow, we are gonna get through it Resources to help if you or a loved one is dealing with or recovering from an ED:healthline.com/health/gift-guide-holiday-celebrations-through-disordered-eating-recovery#How-to-cope-with-an-ED-during-the-holidays https://edfa.org.au/education/5-tips-to-help-loved-one-with-an-eating-disorder-at-christmas/giveusashout.org/latest/tips-supporting-mental-health-around-eating-disorders-during-holiday-season https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-12-15/eating-disorders-more-challenging-over-christmas-period/101775648 timestamps: 00:00 intro and our culture of diet culture 05:38 the generational gift that keeps giving 10:07 ableism, healthism and fatphobia 12:22 only skinny people struggle - ED's 16:33 Men deal with this, too 22:23 final thoughts and getting through this bs Video referenced: @andrewlowe youtube.com/watch?v=gjSLjugXtlo the article I want EVERYONE to read:nutritionbycarrie.com/2022/09/diet-culture-ableism.html Sources:insider.com/how-to-handle-holiday-fatphobia-tips-from-maintenance-phase-cohost-2022-12 medicalnewstoday.com/articles/265215#:~:text=BMI%20(body%20mass%20index)%2C,of%20Medicine%2C%20University%20of%20Pennsylvania. bbc.com/news/health-49714697 bodypositivealliance.org/blog/familial-fatphobia-during-the-holiday-season people.com/movies/kate-winslet-bullied-after-titanic-fame-physical-scrutiny-horrible people.com/health/zosia-mamet-reflects-on-how-her-mother-influenced-her-eating-habits/#:~:text=I%20prayed%20I%20would%20grow,sometimes%20not%2C%E2%80%9D%20Mamet%20writes. dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-5010409/Kelly-Clarkson-admits-contemplated-suicide.html people.com/movies/kate-winslet-bullied-after-titanic-fame-physical-scrutiny-horrible nypost.com/2023/03/30/lana-del-rey-cruelly-trolled-over-weight-worse-than-9-11 elemental.medium.com/the-bizarre-and-racist-history-of-the-bmi-7d8dc2aa33bb https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-01-02/the-problem-with-the-body-mass-index-bmi/100728416medicalnewstoday.com/articles/265215#:~:text=BMI%20(body%20mass%20index)%2C,of%20Medicine%2C%20University%20of%20Pennsylvania. dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2217294/What-Victoria-Beckham-told-Cheryl-Cole-brief-friendship-Im-happy-thin.html
The AUDACITY of women aging naturally
Bryony Claire 2023-11-20 | Tis the season of judgement and this is part 1 in a series of surviving the festive season. An aging woman? Gross. Don't you know that you're meant to age gracefully, which means maintaining a patriarchy approved standard of beauty up until you kick the bucket?

Britneys mother and sister betrayed her...but why?
Bryony Claire 2023-11-13 | Britney Spears had conquered the world of pop and became a global icon, yet she got let down by the people who "should" have been there for her the most, the women in her family. Her mother, Lynne and her sister, Jamie Lynn both enabled and were complacent with the awful treatment she got, and worse, they actually profited off her suffering in the name of "saving the family image". Now after Britney's book, "The Woman in me" was released and revisiting a bunch of old interviews and videos, we can piece together what happened, and the way Britney was cut out, shamed and ostracized by those who were meant to be there for her, and unpack the possible reasons as to why this happened Internalized misogyny, man, it's a beast that's hard to slay, but we gotta keep trying. timestamps 0:00 family portrait 01:32 intro to internalized misogyny 06:28 A mother's journey from something to nothing...to something again 13:10 image criticism, control and "family pride" 20:02 conservatorship control - the image is now intact 24:52 sister sister 30:53 how does this apply to us? let's connect: IG: instagram.com/bryonyclaire_vegan/?hl=en business enquiries only: bryonyclaire.vegan@gmail.com
Britney sets the record straight against all those who sought to destroy her 💅
Bryony Claire 2023-10-30 | Britney Spears has been called many things over her life, and best selling author wasn't what people were expecting of her when she started playing on the radio in 1998. She never expected most of the things that happened in her life either, but not for happy reasons. Her book, The "Woman in me" really exposes the misogyny which was so prevalent in the 2000's and unashamedly calls out double standards, the way she was demeaned by basically everyone, and the impossibility to be the "right woman". No matter what she did she was "bad" because she was unashamedly herself, until the world really turned against her when "Cry me a River" from Justin Timberlake came out, after that, the public's perception of Britney had been forever changed and she was used as a beacon for all that was wrong with the world, and mostly - women. The terrible treatment by her family, the paparazzi, and let's be honest, a lot of us, made her life a living hell, until her family really finished the job with the conservatorship. What she's been through is disgusting and shows the lengths that are gone to in order to control women, and worse, how mental health can be weaponized to dehumanize someone to the point they aren't even seen as someone with personhood anymore. We still see it today with how people talk about her online. There's SO much to discuss in this video!

Posh & Becks, Taylor Swift and how women are blamed in sports
Bryony Claire 2023-10-21 | The Beckham documentary which just released covers a lot, but the thing which intrigued me the most was the way that Posh Spice - Victoria, was treated. Victoria was famous BEFORE David ever came along, she was a member of the biggest girl group (potentially ever) and yet people still thought she wasn't good enough for him, and let her know it, that she was "bad for business". But it's not just Victoria who has been torn apart, Cheryl Cole and Jessica Simpson were also treated awfully in the 2000's, but now we have Taylor Swift and Travis Kelse on the scene - one of the most famous women alive and a sports star. Is this Posh and Becks 2.0? And will she be given the same treatment as Victoria was.

Is ghosting ever ok? Why cant we communicate? 👻
Bryony Claire 2023-10-16 | Avoiding people we don't want to see isn't a new thing, however it's much more obvious these days as everything is online, and there's constant reminders that someone has cut you out of their life. Ghosting is the practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication. It's a purposeful action which has a myriad of consequences, but why exactly is it that we struggle to communicate? Why can't we repair friendships after disagreements? Why do people ghost as a way to break up a relationship - and are they always bad? Is ghosting normalized now to the point of expectation? There's a LOT to cover, and thanks again to the 756 people who participated in the survey, your experience really helped to shape this!

Relationship manipulation tactics are FINALLY being called out
Bryony Claire 2023-10-02 | We've been seeing a turning tide against the PR tomfoolery, and I for one and here for it. There's been quite a few people falling from grace recently, but the more interesting, or let's be honest, scary thing is how many of us can relate to these cases. From Russell Brand using his "notoriety" to have his way with multiple women leaving them distraught, to Jonah Hill weaponizing therapy speak by using "boundaries" as demands on his ex girlfriend, the PR framing of Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner's divorce to try and bad mouth her, and many, many more! It's a scary world out there, but times are a-changing, thanks to who? Well, you! We have the receipts, which proves the BS is...well..BS!

Is romance dead? Our changing expectations of love 💞💌
Bryony Claire 2023-09-18 | "there's no romance anymore, nobody wants it" meanwhile shows like Bridgerton are flourishing to the point it changed fashion, people are still swooning over Mr Darcy's hand flex and romcom's are having a resurgence. So what's happening here? Do people truly not want to be wooed anymore? Did swiping kill the meet-cute? Or is it something deeper than that, where people want more from a relationship than a fire emoji when their date won't text them back more than a couple of words. Why enter into a relationship with someone if you're not being met half-way? Why be in a serious relationship when it means taking on emotional labor your partner hasn't done? Why take on the role of "mother" in a relationship and clean up after your partner because it's "expected" from gender roles? Is there a widening gap happening of expectations from love? Love means taking the other person as they are, are people really being "too picky" or is it more than that?

Why do girls feel we have to grow up so fast?
Bryony Claire 2023-08-21 | Girls are seemingly burdened with added pressure to mature faster, have more responsibility, patience, awareness of our bodies and appearances in terms of how we're perceived from a young age. Basically, be grown ups as kids, because "girls mature faster" and "boys will be boys" whether that's being sat next to the naughty kid in class to "set a good example" or expected to do more household chores, the list goes on. I want to unpack this to see if and how this affects others globally, to share your experiences and see if there's things we can do to help change things, or heck even just to help heal ourselves!

Feminism is about equality, yet it's become something people don't want to associate with, yet again. It's reminding me of the atmosphere I grew up in the 2000's and it's not fun, especially as I see younger people really identify against it. So I asked you in a survey, and huge thanks again to everyone who participated and shared their experience and thoughts, we're piecing things together to figure out what's gone wrong here, and hopefully unlearn some stuff too Let's connect: IG: instagram.com/bryonyclaire_vegan/?hl=en business enquiries only: bryonyclaire.vegan@gmail.com Timestamps: 00:00 montage time 01:37 Feminism 101 - ride the waves and the issues 09:56 Feminism's misconstrued stances 19:11 "but I'm an equalist" 22:36 Why is there still discourse?

Medical misogyny - trained not to care

Why are futuristic movies dystopian? The need for solarpunk
Bryony Claire 2023-07-10 | We've all been there, trying to find a movie "everyone" wants to watch and the genre typically falls to sci-fi/futuristic/action movies but oh my god how grim are they? Is dystopia really our only vision of the future? Because I just get sad watching these movies as there's far too many parallels to our current world without hope - except for the super rich of course, and our "chosen one". Where's the community?

The Extra Costs of Living in an Ableist Society
Bryony Claire 2023-06-12 | There are so many extra costs of living in an ableist society, and I don't just mean monetary costs. A disability, illness such as being immuno-compromised, or being neurodivergent in an ableist world is a huge challenge, ranging from school to work to even getting medical care or being able to afford to live. The whole purpose for this video is to share people's experiences and challenges of dealing with ableism which is inherent in society, the extra costs associated with that, things you'd like changed, and what people can do to help.

Why is everyone so angry? Do we view each other as the enemy?
Bryony Claire 2023-05-29 | We've seen the airline passenger yelling because the baby was allowed to yell, relished over the unleashing of anger and pettiness on Beef, even the Orca's are getting angry and strategically attacking boats (though to be fair I'm on the side of nature fighting back) and anyone who's been on twitter ever has seen the unabashed hatred of anyone ranging from things which make sense like human rights being taken away to people getting angry over banal things which don't matter. There's been a growing shift that I've noticed where each other is viewed as a threat, an enemy, someone who made our day worse, someone who is doing things on purpose to hurt us, whether or not that's the case.

The Fixation on 18 being Fair Game
Bryony Claire 2023-05-22 | When we're on about things that give us the ick, this whole topic does, get ready to hate the world as we try to understand this dystopia! This is an issue which has bothered me for many years, since I was about 21 honestly because of men I knew, but I'm 33 now, and grimly, the issue persists. People, society if you will, view anyone who has turned 18 as being an adult, therefore they are fair game for objectification and bullying, they're to be held to the same standards of every other adult.

HustleGPT - the next wave of scammers
Bryony Claire 2023-05-15 | Hustles exist in many forms over history, and with the release of AI tools that "anyone can use" there's sprouted a whole new genre of them, HustleGPT. Guides are everywhere on how to make money using chat GPT and AI art programmes in get rich quick schemes which are...questionable at best. But it's infiltrating creative spaces the most, where people are using it to write articles, create videos, and in my opinion steal artwork to "launch their businesses" - yet the thing is, finding actual financial results from these so called "businesses" is near impossible to do...
