Female bodies are constantly subject to evaluation. On
the one hand, women are constantly told about the imperfections
of their bodies, what they should improve, what
they should replace, and on the other, there is the saying,
repeated like a mantra over and over again, that in order to
achieve a state of happiness, they must accept themselves.
They are reduced to the role of the body – sexual or maternal.
Recently, it has become clear that this state of affairs
is fuelled even by women themselves, who adopt a misogynistic
point of view.
