Comment on Facebook Allegedly Detected When Teen Girls Deleted Selfies So It Could Serve Them Beauty Ads

It’s so much bigger than this. It starts young. iPad kids. Strict gender roles. Sexualization of children. Learning from parents who have been conditioned by capitalism, sexism and more. We got little girls that want skincare products and teens talking about plastic surgery. It’s bad.

Agreed though. Punish people for ruining society. I think I read a while ago that France had required social media posts to flag when images have been altered. We need more laws like this too.

As little kids we got like no genderbased education from our parents. When we moved our grandmother got a lot more control and dumped blue boyish stuff on my brother and forbid the girly things. Has never worn a dress since and now is still not willing to wear one

(it could be that us older sisters influenced that he wants to wear dresses too)

  Bummer. Happens to almost all men in the US. Maybe less now, but this new red pill generation is wild.

  I need context to understand your story. How old was your brother when you moved? How often was he wearing dresses before the move? How quickly did it stop? And how old is he now?

    he was ~4 years old
    
    i actually dont know how often, but i would guess as often as we others too. from what i understood he actually liked it so often enough
    
    a few weeks or months (was 5 at the time so its mostly something i heard from older siblings & mother)
    
    21 i think

  It has always been this way. When you get old, 15 year olds and 19 year olds start to all look the same.
  
  Similarly, to teenagers a 40 year old and a 60 year old look the same. Old.

  It’s hard to say if it’s one of those things that older gens say is different with newer gens even though it the same. I will say though, the convergence of sexualization of children and infantilization of adults have been narrowing the gap and maybe one is winning over the other.

And mass sharing of images/videos which has made it so much easier to connect people, specifically in one case I saw today of someone on Telegram sharing child porn. How do you even put the cat back in the box?

  People don’t want to hear it, but AI. Used intelligently and responsibly.

    Unfortunately, the “used intelligently and responsibly” part is why people dislike AI - they don’t trust companies or people to use it that way (and for good reason based on the results so far).
    
    Plus, it’s not gonna put everything back into Pandora’s Box. What we’re in is a societal and cultural arms race where AI is just another escalation that’s being used by both sides.

    It’s funny you reference Pandora’s Box. I often use it to refer to the growth of AI and people’s resistance towards it. It’s not going anywhere. It’s not slowing down. We gotta make it work for us.

    That does make sense, although I’m not sure we can trust it to work like that.
