can we dead the myth that women are attacked and criticised for this basic white ‘soft girl’ aesthetic that lana sees herself as the champion of, when those characteristics are thee standard for femininity and have been for decades
if you like to sit pretty and be demure and gentle that’s fine but let’s not pretend that that’s not society’s caricature of a woman, as if you’d get criticised more than ‘stronger women’ who are loud assertive and unapologetic
black women have been barred from femininity for the longest and now that she sees black women excelling and being praised she complains about feminism not having a place for her. the straight white american woman. who’s been gatekeeping womanhood since the early days
above all i just want to tell all woc but especially black women that your femininity is undeniably yours and you don’t have to offer the world ‘delicate’, ‘soft’ or ‘gentle’ in exchange for it
centuries *** i really didn’t expect this to get so much interaction but keep calling out racist tropes that feed misogynoir
