tell me the last time you saw an ad try this hard to make you think something sketchy was empowering.

“literally life-changing” to give away half your eggs so you can freeze the rest for free? targeting ambitious young women at elite schools with this kind of language feels… calculated. they’re not just selling a service - they’re banking on your potential.

it’s wild how normal it’s become to package questionable trade-offs as freedom or self-care!!!

preying on financial insecurity is pretty gross

Crazy ads like this littered my college newspaper. It felt so predatory because it was focused on paying off your student loans so you weren’t in debt forever.

and freezing your eggs isn’t even a complete a guarantee in the future either 🫤
