History of an internet stereotype: “women not eating full meals” and “girl dinner”

Question

Where did this thing come from? Along with the stereotype of girls drinking coffee and eating nothing else? And the “almond mom” thing? Do women not eat? What’s the history of this cultural thingy?

Answer 1

The stereotype exists more in this post than in general. Never seen/heard either of these things in any new context beyond how these ideas have been integrated into advertising/etc since the 50s, maybe earlier.
