It\u2019s really interesting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We\u2019re just so inundated with it,&#8221; he added.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Gupta then revealed a toxic racial element to the &#8220;selfie effect&#8221; that he covered in a recent episode of his podcast, &#8220;Chasing Life.&#8221; The CNN segment cut to an audio clip of Gupta talking to a child psychologist, Professor Keneisha Sinclair-McBride, who spoke about selfies promoting a &#8220;Eurocentric&#8221; look.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/lizzo-blasts-body-shamers-health\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>LIZZO BLASTS BODY SHAMERS IN POST ABOUT HER HEALTH: \u2018I\u2019M NOT WORKING OUT TO HAVE YOUR IDEAL BODY TYPE&#8217;<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In the clip, she said, &#8220;A lot of the filters kind of have a very Eurocentric lens. So it would be great if they did not make people\u2019s skin colors lighter or change the shape of their noses or change how big their eyes are, or do things that make them more towards a certain <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/bikini-clad-lizzo-slams-body-shamers-instagram-clap-fit-beauty-standards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">standard of beauty<\/a> that may not be from the cultural background that they\u2019re from, right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After airing the audio, Gupta told his hosts that Sinclair-McBride\u2019s idea really resonated with him. He said, &#8220;That idea that these filters create this ethnocentrism, filters as a general rule will lighten the skin, will sort of change the dynamics of the face in a way to create this conformity, is what Professor Sinclair-McBride was saying.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added, &#8220;I hadn\u2019t really thought about it but as we looked at the filters, it\u2019s true.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lemon noted that he has observed the same phenomenon. He exclaimed, &#8220;It is true, Sanjay! I\u2019m so glad. I can\u2019t wait to listen to this because I notice that these filters, I\u2019m like, \u2018Why are these sort of, European sort of projection of, you know, narrow nose or whatever, lighter eyes? That has always been frustrating for me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/even-phone-selfies-accused-racial-bias-filters-create-feeling-ethnocentrism\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/even-phone-selfies-accused-racial-bias-filters-create-feeling-ethnocentrism <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CNN Chief Medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta cited a child psychologist arguing that phone &#8220;selfie&#8221; filters subtly alter the facial features of users so they [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-59373","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
