#pop quiz to my fellow americans out there: in what year was marital rape made illegal (that is: when was it declared illegal for a man to

as someone who majors in mathematics in college, the pure boiling fucking rage when I see people call things as "girl math" and its just about shopping expenses 🙃🙃

Fr when I think of girl math I think of like. Ada Lovelace.

As much as I like Legally Blonde and stan artists like Scene Queen, sometimes the bimbo aesthetic/movement/whatever you call it and its influence on social media has...not done the best things for women and how we perceive ourselves as a whole

I also partially blame the popularity of what I call "pop feminism" that is just capitalist demographics cornering in a glittery feminist bow. Shit like: "My Sephora eyeliner is so sharp, it could slay a man", "Your natural body is beautiful (and thus has societal value!), buuut if you wanna shave your disgusting body hair buy our razor! Get 10% off with our code GIRLBOSS", "Use your man's masculine energy to protect yourself so you can hone your feminine energy into a Kamehameha of girl power", "women are beautiful goddesses naturally inclined to nurture, which is why they should stay home in the kitchen and raise children" "ugh why did women fight for their civil rights back in the day, now I have to go to work and pay rent and be able to be financially independent without relying on a man and marriage"

Not to whip out my Daria cosplay, but can we cut the shit and acknowledge this oil slick in the zeitgeist? Corporations are not moral or immoral, they're amoral. They do whatever is necessary to toe the line of demographic accessibility, exploit your moral and political standards, and will say anything to sell you shit and get a nice ESG score courtesy of Blackrock. And it doesn't need to be a full on commercial to be someone trying to shill you: it could be an influencer, or a social trend, etc.
