Trained To Hate Their Sex And Selves, 1 In 3 Teen Girls Now Considers Suicide

A The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released a new survey A significant rise in teenage depression has been revealed by research. More than half of girls (57%) report feeling depressed. “persistently sad or hopeless,” Nearly 33% (30%) of respondents have thought about suicide.

What’s especially troubling about this report is how it runs counter to today’s conventional wisdom. Our society is supposedly more supportive of women than ever, and provides many opportunities for girls. In certain areas, women perform better than men. College students outnumber them In the Workplace.

Strong female protagonists are another important aspect. There are many TV and movie stars who use them.. In this article, women are represented more Politics And Sports. Schools encourage girls to reach for the stars and break down glass ceilings. No longer do girls live in a world where they’re expected to find a husband, have children, and submit to lifelong domestic drudgery. They can do almost anything.

Of course, the fact that girls are more unhappy than ever raises some serious questions about feminists’ arguments. Do you think doubling down would be a good idea? Attacks on men, Ineffective diversity quotas for the boardroom?, and Expanded access to abortion help young girls?

To be fair, there are those who realize that feminism doesn’t solve the problem. Many women are no longer encouraged and supported by feminist messaging. Feeling pressured and shamed into a lifestyle they don’t enjoy. Many women don’t want to be like the female bosses on TV. feel insulted By them. They are not experiencing freedom by working from home but rather, they are experiencing Boredom and tedium are endless.

However, there are other things. Toxic feminism that’s making teenage girls sad. What has happened in the past decade and the last few years to drive young women further into despair? From what I’ve witnessed as a high school teacher, this would probably be the rise of social media and transgenderism. 

Adolescent girls are particularly affected by social media. Addiction and promotion of unattainable ideals. The girls scroll through Instagram and TikTok endlessly, looking at the many things they lack, whether it be their intelligence, looks or charisma. Because they fear missing out, girls are constantly bombarded by new trends and fads and act impulsively. Due to the immediacy of these platforms, there is little time to reflect on the content they’re passively internalizing. 

It is often impossible to believe that the featured images of happiness, material success and wealth they are seeing are real. They also have bad habits and ideas that are propagated via social media. For example, consuming too many hours per day on their phone. Online, they are told they can have it all, but in the real world, this just isn’t so.

There’s also the narcissistic component of social media. When a girl is required to post videos, photos, and personal beliefs regularly for her friends and other anonymous followers, self-consciousness can turn into obsessive. Logan Lane, a teenage girl who is obsessed with video and pictures, was able to capture the feelings of a teenager.
