a thread about beauty standards:
so i work at a restaurant as a server. my income is very tip based, and itās never guaranteed, so i really work hard for that money. one thing iāve been told time and time again is that wearing makeup will get me bigger tips...
so i work at a restaurant as a server. my income is very tip based, and itās never guaranteed, so i really work hard for that money. one thing iāve been told time and time again is that wearing makeup will get me bigger tips...
...iāve been told this by my manger, my mother, and the other servers. the logic: men think feminine women are more attractive, which leads to bigger tips. iāve been hit on and looked up and down and i personally DO NOT LIKE IT...
...but anyway, i donāt see why i need to make myself more feminine for bigger tips. not to be dramatic, but it feels like iām exploiting myself for money. i love women, i love being more masculine, itās who i am, itās how i present myself, and i have a lot of pride...
...our uniform is a black polo, black dress pants. i have short hair and wear a zip up sometimes. i know people donāt know my gender at first. iāve been called sir beforeāwhich i correct, and people literally look me up and down tryna see if i have tits or not...
...my host today told me that he canāt tell the difference between me and my male coworker. we literally look nothing alike, we just both have short brown hair. iām sick of people saying i look like a guy. i literally DO NOT CARE what you think i SHOULD look like...
...this is why i hate people!!
whenever anyone mentions my masculinity or the fact that i *should* be more feminine. ppl literally act like theyāve never seen a lesbian in real life.
my coworker called someone a ādykeā in front of me a while ago. literally what is this shit...

...this thread is getting long...lemme wrap it up.
iām sick of beauty standards and iām sick of judgmental mfs commenting on my body. i could rant for days abt this but thatās pretty much it.
thank you for reading
being yourself is always enough
