Why Sephora kids are afraid of aging? | I fear I Have Thoughts | Episode 12
Why are 10-year-olds using anti-aging skincare? And why are brands encouraging it?Children are becoming the newest beauty consumers, and it’s not happening by accident. In this episode of I Fear I Have Thoughts, we’re talking about the rise of kids’ skincare, the marketing strategies behind brands like Drunk Elephant and Bubble, and how social media has turned childhood into another market to monetize.We’ll get into:Why anti-aging products are being marketed to childrenThe role TikTok and Sephora culture play in this trendHow beauty brands profit from insecurityThe psychology of aspirational marketingWhat this says about growing up online and consumer cultureThis conversation isn’t really about skincare—it’s about childhood, advertising, self-worth, and the pressure to “fix” yourself before you’ve even had the chance to grow up.What do you think? Should brands be held responsible for marketing these products to kids, or is this ultimately up to parents? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.Follow the podcast:Instagram: @ifearihavethoughtsFollow me:Instagram: @lillytavarezIf you enjoy deep dives into internet culture, psychology, feminism, media, and the weird ways the internet shapes our lives, subscribe for new episodes every week.#Skincare #DrunkElephant #BubbleSkincare #SephoraKids #Consumerism #Marketing #BeautyIndustry #TikTok #Commentary #Podcast #IFearIHaveThoughts

Hating cats is linked to misogyny for these reasons... | I Fear I Have Thoughts | Episode 10
Do people really hate cats... or is something deeper going on?At first glance, it sounds ridiculous. But when you start looking at history, gender stereotypes, and the way society treats traits associated with femininity, the conversation gets a lot more interesting.In this episode of I Fear I Have Thoughts, we're diving into why the internet's obsession with hating cats might not just be about pets. We'll talk about:The history of cats and womenWhy "cat lady" became an insultThe psychology behind cat behavior vs. dog behaviorSocial media's role in shaping opinionsThe connection between misogyny, autonomy, and the way we judge both women and animalsWhether you're a cat lover, a dog person, or somewhere in between, this episode is less about convincing you to like cats—and more about questioning why we think the way we do.What do you think?Do you think the dislike of cats is sometimes rooted in misogyny, or is that reading too much into it?
