1 Introduction

In this paper I consider whether structural injustice can capture the harms of the beauty ideal and recognize their significance. This is done in three sections. In Section 2, I set out the rising costs and harms which attach to beauty engagement in an increasingly visual and virtual culture. In Section 2.1, I outline how beauty harms are typically understood. In Sections 2.2 and 2.3, I argue that there are two communal or shared harms which are not easy to capture on individual models: first that more is required to meet minimal appearance standards; and second body image anxiety. In Section 2.4, in order to give an accurate account, I highlight beauty benefits. In Section 2.5, I show that increasingly the demands fall across genders. In Section 3, I apply Iris Marion Young’s account of structural injustice to beauty. In Section 3.1, I set out the three core features of structural injustice. In the following three sections, Sections 3.2–3.4, 3.2–3.4, 3.2–3.4, I show beauty harms have the features of structural injustice. In Section 4, I consider two benefits of this approach and one challenge to it.

结构不公与美的要求

1 简介

在本文中，我考虑结构性不公正是否可以捕捉到美理想的危害并认识到其重要性。这是在三个部分完成的。在第 2 节中，我阐述了在日益视觉化和虚拟化的文化中美容参与所带来的成本上升和危害。在第 2.1 节中，我概述了人们通常如何理解美容危害。在第 2.2 节和第 2.3 节中，我认为有两个共同或共享的危害，在单个模型上不容易捕获：首先，需要更多才能满足最低外观标准；第二个身体意象焦虑。在2.4节中，为了准确叙述，我强调美容的好处。在第 2.5 节中，我表明需求越来越多地跨越性别。在第 3 节中，我将 Iris Marion Young 对美的结构性不公正的解释应用到美。在第 3.1 节中，我列出了结构性不公正的三个核心特征。在以下三个部分，即第 3.2-3.4、3.2-3.4、3.2-3.4 节中，我展示了美的危害具有结构性不公正的特征。在第 4 节中，我考虑了这种方法的两个好处和一个挑战。
