Twentytwo year-old male from Sweden. I enjoy reading books, writing books of considerably lesser quality, watching movies and playing games. major fandoms include The Dark Tower, asoiaf, Berserk and the canon of classic jidaigeki and 12,932 other things.
ive been thinking and honest to god: i think i would actually join a girl gang if the offer came. like a legitimate, hierarchical, “let’s carry knives under our skirts and beat up men” gang. fuck college
bringing back the sukeban girl gangs from the 70’s that wore long skirts against teen sexualization and fucked things up for the patriarchy
and this was no “5 girls in a small town” who made the news—this was yakuza level shit. 20,000 girls getting into gang fights and shoplifting and getting pissed off that only men were allowed to be rough and violent and angry
i’m watching trailers for upcoming movies and got to Mary Queen of Scots and margot robbie pulled off her big, noble rich bitch wig and booyyyyy. this hoe out here lookin like IT lil cousin THAT
THATS HOW THEY ALL LOOKED THEN THOUGH!
thats how all them bitches look now under all that bronzer and contour too!
nobody had hair under the wigs?? what were they doing wrong like…it’s a wig
nope! they used to lose their hair. and the white chalky face? to conceal their scars from various diseases, the makeup was made of lead and even vinager and only made the skin worse.but yeah all those “fashionable women” wore that makeup to cover up small pox. (Alot of their skin problems though…were the result of poor hygiene)
I also wanna point out her pupils, which are huge, they used belladonna if they had light eyes, to make them look dark,big and shiny.
and yeah, they wore wigs because they used to shave their hairlines waaaaay back to fake a high forehead. and well, they either shaved all of it off, or lost it because they spent their teens using urine or other chemicals to get “fair hair”. by the time they reached their 20′s and popped out a few kids (and lived) they’d lost it all.
(sorry i just know wayy too much about this period, lol)
margot robbie fucking up her own hairline to portray them old colonizers as they truly were while also undermining the euro centric beauty standards those same uglies implemented across the globe? i stan
I mean, we literally have research that says this. With TV it works because shows are DESIGNED to have segues/scenes where advertising can go, so we perceive it as less disruptive. You can’t just drop advertising in any old where. Shockingly, people fucking HATE that.
