As it is right now? I doubt it. But the actual percentages are unknown to me. It’s not something that’s particularly easy to track.
But then what do we do about it? The wider issue is with social media and its effects on girls and young women. How do we change it? Young girls especially are vulnerable to social comparisons, starting around middle school age. We can try banning social media for young people but the effectiveness of that strategy is not yet known since we’re still early in the process.
