Entretien avec Mommy Sensei

Sherly, also known as Mommy Sensei, is a content creator active on Instagram and TikTok. Initially, she primarily shared content focused on fitness, exercise, and wellness. Over time, however, she became aware of a reality of how social media works: in her field, content that emphasizes physical appearance, or even physical attributes, often receives the most exposure. Some creators choose to exploit this to gain a wider audience. She also observed other negative aspects of social media, notably the fact that many children are exposed to inappropriate content, sometimes with the consent or indifference of their parents. The exposure of private life has also become the norm for some creators, who extensively share their daily lives, relationships, or even their children, without always considering the consequences. In this interview, we'll discuss the social media culture that pushes us to constantly expose ourselves, as well as the risks this relentless pursuit of visibility can pose, both to our privacy and our mental health. 00:00 – Introduction: Who is Mommy Sensei? 03:44 – Fitness on social media versus reality 11:53 – The gaze and perception of others 17:05 – Exposing your private life online 23:15 – The dangers of social media for young people 46:49 – Cultural change in the age of social media 51:22 – Relationships between men and women 53:55 – The influence of social media on male-female relationships and on our children 1:00:12 – Getting views by being exposed on social media 1:02:53 – Being in a relationship with a single mother 1:07:39 – Are women more narcissistic? 1:14:02 – Conclusion
