Why did 2000s movies always treat taking off a girl’s glasses like a full transformation?

The makeover trope wasn’t really about becoming beautiful. It taught us that being “nerdy” was a look — something you could fix with contacts, better hair, and a new outfit.

And somehow, we all accepted it.

Did you ever notice how ridiculous this trope was?
