But a goddess of a woman has to be aspirational desirable she can be the cute best friend the cool girl the love object the sexy spy hacker with a huge ass or whatever and the man next to her looks like just some guy
To be the friend who’s too woke- being beautiful or pretty whatever is something both men and women can be. There are many famous pretty men. But it’s not as much of a requirement for success in film as it is for women. And even the men who are breathtaking get scolded as being for the girls
I watched this the other day and it was a delight- but no shade, it’s weird how in this movie you’ve got like Veronica Lake who is about as gorgeous as it’s possible to be and he’s just a guy. And that’s how so many movies are even today, the hottest woman you’ve ever seen and some guy
On the one hand I think she would’ve been great as Rapunzel, on the other hand I’m not prepared to see weird racists lose their minds over a Disney character a third time and for Disney to say and do absolutely nothing about it again- but spiritually she’s my Rapunzel
I am once again thinking of the insane luck I had getting photos with the little mermaid statue with a rainbow in the background because I’m always on my Disney princess bullshit
sort of same here! The assumption is if you like older men it’s Freudian but the older men I have always liked are nothing like my dad. And I think it’s more narcissistic for me, despite it being features I don’t have, I like a handsome older man who feels like a possibility of what I could achieve
I say all this and I have been head over heels for a work crush for like two solid years and he looks like my first time (who was 48 when I was 17), the hot Italian (I was 17 he was 25) and my work crush is 46 while I’m 32. But I like older tanned dark curly hair classically handsome toned…
For me it was when I turned 25 it dawned on me that at 17 I was hooking up with this Italian chiropractor who was my type DOWN but then the thought of oh god… I’d never do what he did, and then oh god… I look young NOW what did I look like then???
And the thing I always try to unpack is I’ve liked older guys the whole time and when I was 16/17 I was hooking up with wildly inappropriate men for that age. As in I have only recently become older now than one of them would’ve been when I was born, and unpacking that has been work
