And the men in "Men's Health" magazine aren't retouched? Are men not affected (or does Google not care about men)?

I am skeptical about this. I'm co-owner of a gym and I don't think the people there--men or women--who care a lot about how they look, are depressed or insecure at all when they see Instagram photos. And many of them spend a lot of time building an Instagram brand.

“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.”

― Upton Sinclair


I have no experience of "men's health" magazines. No doubt they are an attempt to rope men onto the same treadmill.
