It’s mot that we hate teenage girls (and women) so much. It’s just money. Soulless, apathetic money making.
A teenager is in a vulnerable state. Some more than others. But self esteem, self worth, and existentialism are things that a teenager as, at the very least, a brush with.
An emotionally vulnerable person is more open to suggestion. Religion does this a lot. Advertising is no different.
I feel like the powers that b have people working overtime to ensure that most Western women feel like they need to consume to be accepted by their peers.
What’s particularly sad is it’s the exact opposite. That culture of consumption also comes with an aura of exclusivity. Most of these girls are miserable because they’ve been conditioned to consume as much as possible while thinking anyone who consumes less isn’t good enough for them.
It’s really good for putting them to work, not so good for making them or the people around them happy.
Why do we as a species hate teenage girls so much?
We don’t. You’re just more squeamish about seeing them run over with the cold unfeeling tires of capitalism than other groups.

We don’t hate them, it’s just that capitalism has found them to be an easy and vulnerable target for manipulation.
I agree.

Capitalism can feed by double the negative emotions on them easily.
