this is what the rise of pedophile culture looks like–little girls are being indoctrinated into beauty rituals at earlier and earlier ages to feed the misogynistic pedophilic male gaze.
this is what the intersection of capitalism and misogyny looks like–fashion and beauty products are being marketed to females no matter their age as long as is generates profit and feeds the male gaze.
this is what porn culture looks like–due in part to the widespread availability of porn, females are considered sexual objects before they are considered human beings and so no matter what, a female must always be sexually available and presentable to men.
I think about this every time I see my landlady’s 12 year old. She looks so, so grown up - and she’s cursed with curves,. She’s already learnt to hunch her shoulders a little to make her boobs seem smaller; to tug self-consciously on the hem of the belly top the media tells her is ‘so in right now’.
And it makes me mourn the childhood she should’ve had.
