The fake marriage (Vol.1, 1981)

from My Mum's Bad Diaries · host Jenny Ackland and Lilika May

Content note: we discuss weight, appearance and diet (resources below)*Today I find out that my grandad had a fake marriage... This episode we unpack the 7th of January, 1981. We read about mum going to see You Can't Stop the Music starring the Village People and how people seriously, truly, naively had no inkling they were gay. Or Elton John for that matter. We chat about the different beauty/skincare products of the 1980s (people were literally washing their faces with soap) and the rise of the beauty/skincare industry. We ponder the currency beauty can give you and the real world benefits of being attractive in a society that often seems to value attractiveness more than anything else.  As always, listen to experience: cringe, giggles and some real-life shit.Resources: https://www.cci.health.wa.gov.au/Resources/Looking-After-Yourself/Self-Esteemhttps://www.healthdirect.gov.au/self-esteemhttps://headspace.org.au/blog/how-to-boost-self-esteem/Follow us on Insta @mumsbaddiariesClick to head to our show notes at: mymumsbaddiaries.comWe'd love to read your comments or questions!
