I have a half brother who is 17 - I hear all that toxic shit / heavy social media gen stuff and language from him.

Bone smashing is from Clavicular 'Braden Peters' - really toxic kid who is hardmaxing, been on test since 14, does peptides and uses a hammer to smash his bones in his face because 'Wolff's Law' says the bones with grow back tougher and thicker. So he uses the hammer to reshape his face. I think he is getting jaw surgery also. But there is something wrong with the kid for sure. He also takes methamphetamine to stay shredded / stimmax. He also ran over a dude because people in his car egged him on.

He is the kid who has been huge on PSL and rating based on looks - mogging, htn, ltn, htb, chad etc is spun by him. All this looksmaxing stuff came from male incel message boards around 2010. It has just become mainstream recently.

Some elements, sure - but this simply does not hold true for everyone. 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder'

You do realise looksmaxing has been around for eons? This is the standard play women have adopted (self imposed or not) forever.

There is nothing new in looksmaxing. 

Personally - I would watch out for the quoted statement turning into an excuse.

I have a feeling young people believe they have discovered something new because when they look at their parents or the older generations, they are not in that game, but the truth is they probably used to be in that game but they just stopped caring.

Like, you could definitely trace "looksmaxing" back to some dude or gal in Ancient Greece calling it by some Greek name (Looksus Maximus). Or that's just my 0.9% Greek/South-Italian genes speaking (they are carrying all my efforts towards Looksmaxing).

Exactly.

You just get over the time and money investment in appearance. Obviously we still do care and attend to appearance. But the vapid and hollow nature of it all becomes so apparent when real meaning takes over in life. And that is at the crux of it - we create meaning in our lives. When you are young and dumb you invest in that shit because you haven't formed fully as a person. Or are still discovering who we are. 

Real meaning comes later. In my experience. No judgement on the youth of today either - I was once in the same boat. 

I find it amusing my half brothers generation really think they have touched on something completely 'new'. Billy even said to me 'every generation was lied to, they lied to us that looks don't matter'. My eyes seriously - popped out of my head. NO idea. All generations have known looks matter. It is just with the proliferation of social media the younger ones place more emphasis on it. I do not think all youth think this way - but many are getting tied up in this shit.
