This week we're covering chapter six from The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt, "Why Social Media Harms Girls More." In this chapter, Jonathan Haidt explores the disproportionate negative impact of social media on girls' mental health. He argues that girls are more vulnerable to social media's effects due to their heightened sensitivity to social comparison and relational aggression. The chapter highlights how platforms amplify insecurities through curated images and idealized lifestyles, leading to increased anxiety, depression, and body image issues. Haidt cites research showing that girls who spend more time on social media report lower self-esteem and higher rates of self-harm. He emphasizes the need for targeted interventions to mitigate these harms, such as limiting social media use and fostering real-world connections.
