This literally happens all the time and no one complains about it because "man bad"
Okay in insight, I didn't pick a good example. Let me try again
You wouldn't (or at least shouldn't) make fun of a gym-bro starting to take anabolic steroids to look more buff.
That person is suffering from body dysmorphia. Modern beauty standards can push people to extreme or sometimes dangerous treatment. See how the situation is similar to a woman feeling she needs to do facial surgery and take weight-losing drugs, to fit into an impossible beauty standard?
Neither of those situations are good nor should be made fun of. Agree?
But then we had several posts making fun of women in that situation, and someone rightfully called out the blatant sexism.
