Ya ever feel like the ideal body type for women was inherently just classism and the perfect way to treat women like trophies because like back when women were Thick™ as an ideal body type the only women who were able to look like that were the rich and today now the type is super thin and the only women who can look like that are the women who don’t work labour jobs and can afford not to have a carb diet so basically men only go for rich women and have changed how they objectify women not because of some biological quirk that shifts their lust but entirely because the form of the most privileged women has changed therefore the best trophy to keep
It literally was. Fat was hype when malnutrition and starvation were common. A symbol of leisure.
Gucci Skinny was hype when malnutrition from cheap food was common and when most of the middle class had desk jobs. Symbol of control over women who now had more rights.
Instagram Fit ™ is hype because most people are overworked and too broke to exercise or eat properly. A symbol of “leisure” and wealth.
in general the media outcry about “fake service dogs” has been less for the safety of disabled people and more for the vanity of abled people who want to act as an authority over disabled people
this is the exact attitude of abled people who
watch wheelchair users like hawks and take videos of them when they realise they can move their legs
heckle blind/VI people for using cellphones, being online, going places independently
freak out seeing a cane user leave their cane to, like, walk to a nearby restroom or grab something that requires two hands
abled people LOVE to be the disability police and they always do it under the guise of “helping” people who are “really” disabled, as if they know fucking anything about disability. then they take our paranoia about being under constant surveillance as an admission of guilt!
And to the replys listing the terrible consquences of untrained service dogs…. You aren’t wrong, but you are missing the point.
It’s not worth it, don’t be an ass, mind your own business
