makingkidscry: mcdyke-deactivated20171112: I think it contributes to the misogynistic beauty industry, it contributes to pedophilia culture, and it is just another dictation that patriarchy has made to subordinate women. > because beauty products are only marketed towards women >being attracted to shaved full grown adults is pedophilia culture >because women are the only ones held to almost sensless standards like being muscuar or knowing how to fix things Why silence how misogynistic the beauty industry is by making it about men? Not everything is about men, if you didn’t already know. Women can talk about issues they face without men derailing it with their own version of what it’s like to be discriminated against because of biological sex. The other thing is, SOCIETY pressuring girls to shave their pubic hair is a gendered expectation that men don’t have to face. There’s a difference between an autonomous choice and an influenced one. If a male chooses to shave his pubes, it’s an autonomous choice that society didn’t manipulate. The typical ‘sexy girl’ with shaved pubic hair is an image on porn, on shaving advertisements and is spoken about in public. Women are meant to have pubic hair. Children are hairless. See where I’m going? Not every choice is empowering, some are influenced by patriarchy and will never be completely autonomous. It’s time to end the CULTURE so that it won’t keep happening.

1. I wasn’t derailing it. You said the beauty industry is misogynistic. The beauty industry markets DIFFERENT PRODUCTS to men and women. It’s not misogynistic because women aren’t the only victims of beauty standards. That’s what I was pointing out and you either refused to acknowledge that or flew right over your head beause I dared to mention men

2. Women do more commonly shave their ppubes but instead of jumping to ridiculous conclusions like “men just want to fuck little kids” or something nearly as ludicrous and meodramatic, lets consider the bottom genitalia landscape differences of men and women. Hair is almost all around the vagina, natural sure, but if were to go down on a girl I wouldnt be able to avoid the hair down there at least not easily. Men have a penis. It portrudes out from the body. You can easily avoid male pubic hair when going down on a male. Wouldn’t it be more logical that that plays a role in genitalia shaving than “normalized pedophilia”?

3. Even if there was a patriarchy in America, shaving would hardly be a way to “subordinate women”. Thats about as infantile and melodramatic and someone claiming “Men being expected to have a six pack and an 8” dick is just way to keep them inferior to women”. Men and women both have ridiculous standards set to them. This isnt a “we hate women” thing. This is a “we’ve completely exaggerated natural sexual dimorphism to a completely ridiculous point,”
