THE GLOBAL HARMONIZED STANDARD OF WOMEN

by Anatoly IVANOV

HEALTH / INDUSTRIAL DESIGN / SOCIETY / ESSAYS

Social media, especially Instagram, has succeeded to complete the Global Harmonized Standard of Women™, an industrialized process started by the female magazines (Vogue, ELLE…)

It’s all pretty… scary. We now have a draft proposal for ISO review. Skin type and tone, eyebrow width, hair dyes (mostly blond), nail types, clothing, heights, sizes, proportions and weights. A Designed in America™ rating system “Out of 10”, with corresponding maintenance costs and planned obsolescence.

If you’re in a process of casting a film, a photo shoot, or just keeping an eye on the trends, after ingesting thousands of face cards / profiles, it seems women have willingly self-simplified and self-categorized into a Hot-Swap, Girl Always Online™ system, when the preferences of Netflix series, humor, travel destinations, drinks and meals, the presence of food allergies and Micro Traumas™ show little variance for Optimal Replacement™. 😮
