Reply to comment by DanielPhermous in Teen girls mental health has proven link to social media usage by OutlandishnessOk2452

He's replying to the topic of the article, which is teenage girls. No one is blaming the gender. What you're attempting to refute is that body image issues are part of nature. I would love to see your evidence that they are not.

Depression was invented when Myspace came out and before video games there was no violence. /s

I refuted nothing of the sort. You're reading into my comment what you want to see, presumably so you can have a nice, cathartic argument.

No, my point was that there are many factors at play and simply - and only - blaming the gender is simplistic and could easily be read as sexist.

...you quoted the part saying "its nature" and made your argument against this being a natural part of human psyche, then tried to invent a new argument about "blaming the gender" where *no one* in this article or comments has said this was only one gender, or the fault of the gender. What are you smokin, I want some
