#beauty standards

I finally get the stereotype of feminists not shaving.

of-wrens-and-whirlwinds-blog:

You have to have

a Black Booty,
thighs and hips so wide
you can’t sit in a normal bus seat.

(just like so many black women
since the days of slavery)

Latin Brown Skin,
to elevate you as exotic,
as ethereal.

(as insubstantial
as a Mexican maid’s humanity)

Indian hair,
braided and perfumed,
long and sleek and black as night.

(which Indians?
doesn’t matter. they’re all savages.)

Asian eyes,
perfectly smooth eyelids
and that innocent tilt.

(just like that girl from Laos
that you called a “yellow bitch”)

And above all,
to be beautiful,
to be worshiped and adored,

you must,

absolutelymust,

be White.

start holding your boyfriends to best friend standards pls

“my boyfriend was annoyed that I didn’t shave for days” vs “my best friend was annoyed that I didn’t shave for days”

“my boyfriend doesn’t like my haircut so I’m growing it out again” vs “my best friend doesn’t like my haircut so I’m growing it out again”

“my boyfriend hates when I wear makeup so I guess I have to stop” vs “my best friend hates when I wear makeup so I guess I have to stop”

if your boyfriend would leave you for something that your best friend wouldn’t care about, KILL THEM AND EAT THEM

Lmfao

true tho because people forget having a partner is literally just having another best friend with a slightly different intimacy thrown in, not all the rules should change and you should feel 100% as comfortable with your partner as you do with a friend. it took me a long time to realize that. 

This is fucking great. Needed this.

The fact that racist people really think physical attraction is void of social power structures is beyond me.

No, science and biology didn’t make you not attracted to an entire race of people. Racism did that.

It’s called a preference???

Did you not read the post? You can’t have a preference that excludes an entire race of people without being racist. Where do you think those preferences come from?

Especially preferences that exclude people of color. We learn what race/ethnicity/phenotype are attractive by the social power structures we are surrounded by.

There’s absolutely no possible way for a person to find every single black, or every single Asian or every single (Insert race) person unattractive because there is so much physical, phenotypical and internal diversity within each race.

So, as an example, folks who say “I’m not attracted to black people, that’s just my preference” what they are really saying is “I don’t want to be with black people because I have been taught to think they are ugly, undesirable, and I know nothing about how diverse black people are”

Tl;dr preferences are not void of social power structures :)

brownsuggestion:

disconnect from white beauty standards

posts-that-deserved-better:

All women are forced to live under an arbitrary and unfair system which sorts us into the categories of “Fuckable” and “Worthless.”
The solution to this is NOT to expand the definition of “Fuckable.”

Thoughts?

Heroes of our times: this woman who stopped shaving, plucking, moisturizing, fixing her hair and applying make-up because her douche boyfriend kept complaining she spent too much time in the bathroom and YOU WON’T BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED NEXT.

[Spoiler: he learned women don’t actually ‘look like that’ and tried to force her to ‘take care of herself’ again, while she realized she was wasting so. much. time. and is now living her best hairy, unplucked, unmoisturized, unblow-dried and unlipsticked life. Truly a blessèd day.]

For once the you won’t believe what happened next line was actually correct. Kinda nice to see people willing to learn and grow.
