    I think it comes from every possible direction. Family when young with pressure to dress a certain way or present a certain way. Media showing a certain look depending on what is fashionable. Constant beauty and makeup stuff. Peers pick it up and model. People expect it so much that if you even skip one thing you may hear “wow you look tired today”. And these beauty standards are socially enforced and expected behaviors. It’s everywhere from everyone all the time.
