Yeah, I would love to know how many people genuinely want to ride a Ferrari in this case, and how many are willing to live a life from the magazine cover, only to be disappointed if they ever get there.
It’s very hard to see past the marketing, the social media and the fakeness that we swim in every day to realize that “average” is exceptional when it comes to people you have connection with, and realistic is beautiful when you’re happy with someone.
Very hard to pass this message on to porn-addicted boys right now, part of why it’s hard to talk sense into this current generation of man-o-sphere babies who rather be helpless victims of progressive politics than admit they’re just horny kids who need to talk to real people more and get a handle on their rumination.

Sometimes what you are led to believe is also more closely related to some sales or marketing person’s life goals than your own.
