Women who are too sexual aren’t taken seriously, and women who aren’t sexual enough aren’t taken seriously. Women who are conventionally attractive get valued solely for their sexual appeal; women who aren’t conventionally attractive get dismissed for their lack of it. Women who are conventionally attractive are assumed to be dumb bimbos; women who aren’t conventionally attractive are assumed to be either bitter or desperate. Women who are conventionally attractive get trivialized; women who aren’t conventionally attractive get treated with pity and contempt. We can’t win.

Yay horribly crippling societal standards of femininity!

I’d like to see the day where we no longer care about winning the stupid game. The sooner we (women) do as we please without having to take heed of others opinion, the sooner we just start supporting each others choices to be slutty or prudish the sooner we will see these ridiculous standards fade away. I hope. (via thewhore)
