摘要

本文对健身社交媒体文化及其最显著特征的行为进行了哲学考察。随着2010年代以照片为基础的社交媒体的兴起,出现了众多不同的数字亚文化,其中围绕健身或“fitspiration”的文化尤为引人注目。研究发现,这一现象在很大程度上是由从事自我性化和自我物化行为的用户组成的,这与健身固有的对身体、对身体的维护以及最终对外表的关注不出所料。研究还表明,对许多人来说,观看和参与这种行为与身体形象、总体自我认知和精神健康的恶化有关。在本文中,我将让·鲍德里亚关于媒介和符号消费的哲学理论与雅克·拉康关于主体性、自恋和欲望的精神分析观点结合起来,在一个哲学框架内分析这一现象。利用这一框架,我讨论了身体作为商品的属性,从装饰它的符号中获得其文化价值和意义,导致“fitspiration”用户的必要性成为对与自我相异的人造物体的认同,需要一种自恋导向的,但有害的自我物化。我认为,“fitspiration”,以及以照片为基础的社交媒体,既允许也定义了它,纵容了自恋,有害地夸大了处于主体性中心的自恋倾向。

The Culture of Narcissism: A Philosophical Analysis of “Fitspiration” and the Objectified Self
Abstract This article is a philosophical examination of the social media culture of fitness and the behavior which most distinctly characterizes it. Of the numerous and varied digital subcultures emerging with the rise of photo-based social media during the 2010s, the culture surrounding fitness, or “fitspiration,” stands out as one of the more notable. Research has identified the phenomenon as consisting to a large extent of users engaging in behaviors of self-sexualization and self-objectification, following, not unexpectedly, the inherent focus within fitness on the body, its maintenance and ultimately its appearance. Research also demonstrates that, for many, viewing and engaging in this behavior is linked to a deterioration of body-image, general self-perception and mental well-being. In this article, I analyze the phenomenon within a philosophical framework in which I combine the philosophical theory of Jean Baudrillard on media and the consumption of signs and the psychoanalytic perspective of Jacques Lacan on subjectivity, narcissism and desire. Using this framework, I discuss the body assuming the properties of a commodified object deriving its cultural value and meaning from the signs which adorn it, resulting in the “fitspiration” user imperative becoming the identification with an artificial object alien to the self, necessitating a narcissistically oriented, yet pernicious self-objectification. I argue that “fitspiration,” as well as the photo-based social media which both enables and defines it, indulges narcissism, detrimentally exaggerating the narcissistic inclinations lying at the center of subjectivity.

期刊介绍: Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
