In a world obsessed with appearances, where beauty standards are ruled by social media, teenage girls are caught in a dangerous spiral. The desire to be thin, to fit into the idealized mold of beauty, has become an obsession that is no longer just about health but about survival in a world that rewards the “perfect” body.
