Snakes and naked women = bigger cliche than snakes and apples.

I wholeheartedly support the LGBTQ community and their struggle for equality and dignity, so please do not take what I am about to ask as anything but a genuine inquiry: what sort of scientific research has been done to demonstrate that there are no physiological advantages for a trans woman who was born a man? There…

Lord, no—if only sexism were as consistent as exclusively trying to silence women, right? No, it's never quite so easy. In this instance, I'd posit that it's a symptom of the fact that men are socialized to be often more comfortable placing themselves in a position of power over a woman than another man. It's a subtle…

Lipstick,eye liner and blush all replicate female arousal.

I work in the professional world. In finance, to be exact. There aren't any more secretaries. There are office administrators, office assistants, etc. "Secretary" is another gendered job term that has gone the way of "stewardess". And at least in the company I work for and those I do business with, it's a pretty even…

Wouldn't you expect cultural expressions of sexism (and other -isms) look different in different cultures?

I think animals just don't like your makeup because it's tested on them in inhumane ways.

Why are men so hateful?

The problem is that one of your arguments is "it's just what it is," completely ignoring why that is the way that it is. Ignoring that the reasons why are likely rooted in cultural misogyny. Systemic sexism.

Yep. Which shows that this is really a cultural issue, not a scientific one.

My first reaction when I hear "assistant" isn't a woman. This isn't Mad Men, there aren't secretaries anymore.

I could buy it, except for the brows. You can't tell me that those girls all have strong, full brows like that. I am half Mexican and have coarse, thick, black eyebrow hairs and I still have to fill that shit in. That is the one thing that I can't live without (Seriously, I do go without makeup, even brows, all the…

Is this a photoshop fail?

you're new to jezebel I guess. not only do we celebrate it here, we celebrate it and call it "female empowerment"

So now we celebrate the male gaze?

I'm just impressed they aren't 13 year olds. One of my friends knows this girl, who is like 16 now and works as a professional model. She started modeling when she was 13 and my friend once showed me some of her photo shoots. Granted, she looks older than I do (I'm 20 with a baby face) but she has the body of an…

Idk. I like that the area under their eyes isn't like a flat wasteland the way that area ends up in retouched photos. (which I don't really understand why because eyes don't look like that at all??)

I'm not sure about freckles but you could try Emma Pickles or Arna Alayne on youtube. They're definitely pale with blue eyes and dark hair (though Arna changes her hair color).

I'd love to see a guide on foundation/concealer, the best types for different needs (underye circles, uneven skin tone, etc.) I have tried foundations but it never looks natural, always a big orange-y.
