      I call it “going under the saw” instead of “going under the knife” because they look like Jigsaw.

      The girl in the OP post arguably overdid things a little, but it’s her body, her choice

      This right wing one just fell of a cliff straight into the abyss of uncanny valley nightmares. What the fuck is that even, it’s not human

        the appeal she lost was that the tats and piercings make it abundantly clear she’s over 18, and college attendance shows she’s not going to be easy to manipulate and take advantage of. you know. because she’s an educated adult. that’s the big turn off. trust me. that’s ALWAYS the turn off. this guy would say all sorts of nasty stuff about her body if the average 14 year old had tats and piecings.

    Saying “After 2 years with college professors” seems creepy to me, like he thinks college professors are supposed to take over the parents’ role.

      And wild that he thinks that the professors are giving out fashion advice rather than calculus and shit.

      And it wasn’t professors who taught her to respect and value people who weren’t like her, it was just meeting them.

      They think education is flawed. It’s part of the GOP indoctrination. What you’re saying is morbidly comical, but the real reason is how the Right regard education.

        It’s crazy. They literally treat a lack of knowledge like a badge of honor. They genuinely believe they deserve a gold star for proactively avoiding knowing shit. It’s real. It’s wild.

          Evangelist Christians genuinely believe that “earthly knowledge” is pointless once you are saved and are at the gates of heaven, so yes.

      This person you see but have minimal interaction with a few times a week for 13 weeks really screams parental figure.

    “Loving” as in “if you so much as think about self-determination, you’ll get guilt-tripped, emotionally manipulated and berated for defying God’s plan”? Because those conditions tend to produce the type of person that doesn’t act up as a teen, but once they reach adulthood and taste freedom, they go all out, with mixed results. Tats and piercings certainly aren’t the worst outcome.

    It’s a very effective strategy, because speaking as a queer woman, I would see the person on the right and think “personal experience tells me this person might belong to the alphabet mafia, so perhaps I could buy her a drink”

    I hate this so much. This is objectification dialed up to 11. This young woman has value, but only her appearance and only if she dresses and acts how most conservatives want. 🤮 And they all get a say in how she presents herself!

      Mood. My local tattoo shop has $40 days where you can pick a premade tattoo. I have a few in different areas. But I really can’t afford sleeves or a chest tattoo. The only tattoo I paid full price was for $80 and its a Capricorn on my wrist

    I wish I could get people to care about anything that really matters (wages, health care, peace, etc) as they do about other people’s appearances.

      Oh come on, be honest.

      We all objectify all day and as long as you do it in your head and know how to act and react normal, it’s fine. Whatever anyone does in their head is fine as long as it stays there.

      Anytime I hear someone say that they would never objectify anyone I feel this huge “let he who is without sin cast the first stone” kind of thing. We’ve all looked at someone else and thought "habbah habbah.

      Just, again, keep it to yourself.

      Some people like the girl without the tattoos on the left, others like the girl with the tattoos in the right. So? Just let her decide for herself and find someone else if you don’t like it
