DON'T BLAME THE SOFTWARE
This is interesting. Before the advent of Photoshop, altering reality to project a more idealized female body had already been in practise, as far back as the 50s. Photoshop just made it easier but the principle existed long before

10 TRAILERS THAT USE AND ABUSE THE ‘INCEPTION’ BRAAAM!
“What’s the most resilient parasite? An idea.” Little did Christopher Nolan know when he wrote that line, he’d need to add an addendum: an idea that keeps getting pickpocketed over and over again until it loses meaning and ownership, and becomes simply background noise to the general cultural conversation.
