Is it sexist to diss women for being makeup/appearance focused, while being /lit/? A lot of women, if you call them out, they say 'we can be both at once'

I don't see what outward appearance has to do too heavily with personal interest?

do all people who read the same shit look alike? is this a cult?

of course not

vanity and narcissism are negative traits regardless of anything else

It is the cultural norm. Narcissism is shamed in Asian cultures, but in the US everyone wants to be on some reality show. I don't know why women are so easy to brainwash into this mindset though, but they truly cannot think for themselves.

I'm not trying to compare them I'm just saying that if people continue to think of everything in terms of sexist or not sexist its gonna lead down a dark path

I think sexism is kind of a weird self fulfilling prophecy in a way

no woman is screaming sexism here.

>> No.9305553

>>9305479

not right here right now of course but other places they do

also OP isn't really doing anything wrong either
its perfectly fare to criticize anyone for vanity and if women truly don't care about the flaws in their own character that's entirely on them
it certainly doesn't give them the right to take it out on someone else

if you say a rude thing to someone's face, its fair to respond in equal measure.

Just because someone is being mean to you that never gives you the right to be mean back because then you just get caught in an endless pattern of meanness and nobody comes out the other side better off

Yeah, that'd be true, except her makeup isn't up for debate. If she's booktuber, then her taste in books and the like is what she's made public. Her makeup is inconsequential.

That'd be like going up to David Lynch, and instead of asking him (or harassing him) about directing, you demand to know why his shoes are so fucking ugly.

If women are /lit/ or not doesn't matter. Makeup is for idiots. Just think about it: falsifying your own natural appearance in order to attract mates is only good on short term, but NEVER on long term. What's even the point then? Even her hook up will see in the next morning how much she put on and how shitty her make up looks. It's bad for the skin too, so in the long run ugly gals will even look more and more like a battleaxe. Do we need more battleaxes, OP? Hell no. That's simple math right there.

Sometimes I bet he would rather talk about his ugly shoes just as a change of pace because he probably gets way more than enough questions about directing as it is
