Search Results: preferences

I posted a question hours ago and I was met with two trolls who insisted I put on makeup and called me names for choosing not to shave. I understand it’s ok to have preferences for smooth skin and it’s a good thing there are men that are respectful of my decisions. It’s another thing entirely when people online want to control how you should do to your body. They all want to assert dominance over the victim which fortunately doesn’t work on me. I believe in doing whatever you want with your bodies and not give a damn what others think.

All I know is beauty standards are created by constant exposure to social media and capitalism to fuel our insecurities so we can spend more money to look a certain way. I’m not sure if it’s tied to the patriarchy. I’m sure every man has their own preferences, not necessarily they would expect women to fit the beauty standards.
