Everyone should have the right to control of their appearance
I thought I had seen the worst this site had to offer, but every day y’all manage to surprise me
Hey, people deserve the right to look how they want. It’s not actually a huge expenditure of resources
Because how people “want” to look isn’t at all influenced by a culture which demeans and demoralizes women by making their bodies into projects which can never be completed? Because how people “want” to look isn’t founded in a blatantly racist society which presents a singular image of white ‘beauty’ which every woman, but especially non-white women, has to nearly kill and bankrupt themselves to attain? Because how people “want” to look isn’t due to a culture which hates non-white features… unless of course they are artificially reproduced on white bodies? Because how people “want” to look isn’t overseen and preplanned by hoards of white male-dominated conglomerates?
I really could not give a single fuck about the “revolution” that white men and women imagine where women’s bodies are controlled as commodities to an even greater extent, all because some white woman wants breast implants and doesn’t have lips. If your idea of a “revolution” is appealing to every single misogynistic repressive ideal in our culture, and taking it to an even more extreme level, then you can fuck right off. White liberal feminism is a cancer.

Sounds like you’re totally in favor of “performative femininity” as long as it’s the way you believe it should be performed.
I’m talking about shit like brow ridge implants and tongue forking. People should look whatever weird way they want to. Part of the revolution is abolishing patriarchal white supremacist beauty standards.
Duh.
