Now what have we got?\u201d\u2063 Gutfeld asked.

(Or men \u200cwho still think they\u2019re men \u2014 a critical distinction to \u200bmake given the\u200d two specimens just referenced.) Jesse Eisenberg, \u2064Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill \u2014\u200b all of\u2062 them with \u201cso much estrogen\u201d that \u201cjust\u2063 looking at them gave me\u2064 menstrual cramps,\u201d Gutfeld said.<\/p>\n<p>But, as he went\u200d on to point out, \u201cthe media says all bodies are beautiful even when our eyes disagree.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s been \u200da rebellion against beauty which is felt\u2064 in art and culture and biology,\u201d Gutfeld said. \u201cHeck,\u2062 think about how previous generations \u2062used to dress in public, to go to a \u2062sporting event or take a flight. Men and women would get dressed up \u2014\u200c a \u2064full \u200bsuit or a\u2062 dress. Now it\u2019s all yoga\u200b pants, sandals and \u2064hairy toes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And if you don\u2019t\u200d find someone attractive, Gutfeld said, that\u2019s what the left is calling \u201clookism \u2014 even \u2063though it\u2019s normal to be attracted to people who don\u2019t look sick or tired, puffy and obese, or all of\u2062 the above.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Watch the latest video at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\">foxnews.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s now discrimination to find \u200dsome \u200bpeople\u200b hotter than others,\u201d Gutfeld said. \u201cOr maybe, just maybe, people looked\u200b better years\u200b ago because they took pride in their appearance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey had demanding jobs instead of staring at tiny\u200b screens all day,\u201d he continued. \u201cThey \u200bdidn\u2019t gorge themselves\u200b on crap and\u200d then blame fat-shaming,\u200b and they didn\u2019t waddle around \u200din Crocs and \u200bpajamas \u200dlike they were inmates at a \u200bmental ward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt feels as if\u2062 we as a society have given up. Look at the cities \u200dand entertainment and travel. Hell, we don\u2019t even \u2062expect our models on the cover \u200cof\u2063 swimsuit rags\u2064 to be \u200din\u200d shape,\u2062 much less thin. And when we\u2019re forced to accept it as appealing, it\u2063 just doesn\u2019t\u2064 ring\u2063 true.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo this isn\u2019t about ugliness,\u201d Gutfeld concluded. \u201cIt\u2019s about a denial of truth. As Keats said,\u200d \u2018Beauty\u200c is \u2063truth and truth is beauty.\u2019 Beauty or an aspiration for it somehow \u2062always leads you to a truth about\u2063 life. \u2064Like Shakira said, \u2018The hips\u200b don\u2019t lie.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Forgetting the fact that Gutfeld didn\u2019t\u200b nail the exact quotes by \u2062Keats or Shakira, he did\u200d raise an excellent point here. Our society not only doesn\u2019t care about the beautiful\u2062 or\u200b the true,\u200b but it openly shames those \u200dwho still \u200dvalue what it sees as antiquated, reactionary\u200c notions.<\/p>\n<p>Being out \u200bof shape isn\u2019t just something that won\u2019t\u2063 draw \u2062opprobrium these days: You\u2019re seen as attractive and truly heroic if you\u2019re significantly overweight and put yourself\u2062 out there in revealing clothing.<\/p>\n<p>Just \u200blook at Lizzo,\u200d the obese pop star who\u200c <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/aoc-solicits-donations-after-traveling-to-texas-to-help-people-impacted-by-storm\/\" title=\"AOC Solicits Donations After Traveling To Texas To Help People Impacted By Storm\">made news<\/a> last year for playing James Madison\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/lizzo-plays-200-year-old-crystal-flute-lent-from-the-library-of-congress-b-i-just-twerked-and-played-james-madisons-flute\/\" title=\"Lizzo Plays 200-Year-Old Crystal Flute Lent From The Library of Congress: \u2018B****, I Just Twerked And Played James Madison\u2019s Flute\u2019\">crystal flute<\/a> at a concert:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em><strong>WARNING: The following video \u2064contains vulgar language that some \u200cviewers may find\u2062 offensive.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">NOBODY HAS EVER \u2064HEARD THIS FAMOUS CRYSTAL FLUTE BEFORE<\/p>\n<p>NOW YOU HAVE<\/p>\n<p>IM THE FIRST &#038; ONLY\u2062 PERSON TO\u200b EVER PLAY THIS PRESIDENTIAL 200-YEAR-OLD \u2064CRYSTAL FLUTE\u2014 THANK\u2064 YOU <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/librarycongress?\">@librarycongress<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/VgXjpC49sO\">pic.twitter.com\/VgXjpC49sO<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 FOLLOW @YITTY (@lizzo) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lizzo\/status\/1575003731640274944?\">September 28, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Why\u200c did I subject you to that?
