This is creepy as hell holy shit. Mirrors are a fucking tool you dumbasses happy signs don’t tell you if your hair’s straight or if there’s something on your face.
And why only in the girls room? That aspect very much gives off the message that girls are too weak to face life and look at themselves the way boys can.
one of my coworkers has a matching tat w her fiance. hers says “beauty” in cursive and his says “beast” in like an edgy Masculine font & that’s what straight culture is
Ghost Padme is wearing neither the clothes she died in nor the clothes she was buried in, which can only mean one thing
Padme Amidala brought her wardrobe with her to the afterlife, because wearing the same outfit for eternity was to her a fate worse than death
okay i saw this comment and im screaming and have to reblog again
I just realized how fucking disgusting it is that it’s considered healthy and normal for teenage boys to eat everything ever yet teenage girls are obviously also growing but are fucking dieting all the time and shamed for eating while they’re growing
Shit
That’s not even the half of it because
- often when a teenager (male or female) puts on some fat it’s in preparation for a growth spurt. Grownups know this.
- teenagers grow in weird gawky ways, like a girl’s hips will spread out and look “fat” until her legs get longer, or they’ll shoot up super tall and then slowly put on muscle and fat. Grownups know this.
- it’s very common for a women’s body weight to fluctuate plus or minus 5% with her menstrual cycle
but in the diet mentality all of these things are considered personal moral failures, a failure of control, when controlling it is literally impossible. I am so incredibly saddened by women who weigh themselves multiple times a week and fuss over ten freaking pounds when that’s well within the bounds of menstrual fluctuation + just-ate-lunch. It’s horrible.
“A culture fixated on female thinness is not an obsession about female beauty, but an obsession about female obedience. Dieting is the most potent political sedative in women’s history; a quietly mad population is a tractable one.” – Naomi Wolf
Grown ups really do not know this. I tell this to parents at least once a week, your child is sleeping/moody/putting on weight because their body is preparing to more or less jump the Grand Canyon of maturation stages. Hormone changes start a full YEAR before first menses.
My own mother, who works in the medical field and has worked solely for OB/GYN for the last 16 years, gave me grief about all of those things. And she knew about hormone level changes and weight distribution changes and she STILL did it. Don’t think hard facts will outweigh societal norms. Keep talking about it until they can’t ignore the facts
Eat!!! Food !!
Funny story about this when I was growing up, I used to notice that boys would get more to eat - and I was a hungry kid - so whenever anyone would tell me off for wanting/eating more food I would just scream “IM A GROWING BOY” Because that was the phrase I heard so often said about allowing boys to eat more
