You know that sexual violence against women is enabled by rape culture, and rape culture is reinforced and upheld by systematically objectifying and sexualizing women, which is exactly what creepshots does, right? It's one system.

Actually, no. The majority of women spend maybe ten minutes on makeup application unless it's for a glamour shot or a wedding day. It's basically "let's cover up these dark circles because I stayed up late watching movies" and "I am wearing mascara because I am blonde and my lashes are transparent in the sunlight."

There is no way that this scenario would happen. Maintaining a makeup regimine like this would require hours of work every day, not to mention removal. Even looking at this woman up close would "give away" the extensive amount of cosmetics involved, forget 2-3 weeks. People are confusing a labor-intensive,…

You: "I've never created an account because I don't care enough to bother [...] if it was bothering me so much that I felt the need to post about it on other sites, I'd probably register so I could voice my objections at the source."

I was planning on commenting at some point too that Reddit isn't a single monolith community.

Thanks for your permission, but it wasn't needed. You're part of the problem.

Aha! You don't actually care about creepshots. Gotcha! I can ignore you now. Thanks! :)

When did I paint them as a homogeneous community? I know Reddit is a diverse place, but the fact remains that this post will inevitably drive more anger and outrage and get way more upvotes than any sort of anti-creepshot post ever could. And that's pretty disappointing when Reddit and its culture are a huge part of…

The "81 million unique visitors" are not all members of the community. Some of them are just people following links to stuff like this or trawling for news pieces. The actual active community is much smaller than that.

To be fair, Westerners in general care more about animal well-being than human well-being. Watch a movie with "bad guys" getting mowed down by the dozens. Then watch a movie where a dog dies. Guess which one gets a, "NO!!!!" response?

Animals are more important than women didn't you know duh.

Spoiler alert: You were dating the girl on the left the entire time!!! Unless your dates consisted solely of staring at each other's faces, both right/left girl hopefully made you laugh a bit and happier in those 3 weeks.

Now if we could only get them half as riled up about creepshots...

Taylor Swift has no place to offer advice or disgust on other people's relationships. Even if you disagree with your girlfriend, you cant judge or tell her what to do. All you can do is be happy if she's happy or offer a shoulder when a dick breaks her heart. Taylor just looks catty & bitchy in that gif. Even if its…

Point of interest: You don't really have the luxury of makeup, but then, you're also not judged as minutely on your appearance as the majority of women are.

A co-worker of mine told me that before marrying her husband she never let him see her without full makeup on. Not once. After they got married and he saw her without makeup he did exactly what her fear was: he complained that she didn't look as good, her eyes were smaller, she wasn't what he thought she was. So…

I'm trying to see things from your perspective, I really am. And you're right, you don't really get the chance to go shopping for eyeshadow palettes to complement your face, etc.

Does yours still text? Mine still texts. His wife - exwife? - spouse/mother of his children has a hard time with fidelity.

Sympathy is expected.
Clearly he does not know me very well.

Oh god, I was racing to the comments to say the Exact.Same.Thing. The guy I went through this with was pretty much as douchey as Beiber, too. Thank fucking god I am not 18/19 anymore. You couldn't pay me enough to go back there.

Did anybody else have this boyfriend? He may or may not have been sticking it to half the high school, so you dump him - and then it's all, "But I loooooooooooove you and I miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisss you, and you never come out when I drive by your house on Friday nights."

And then you get back together and he goes back to…
