I think that we’ve gone backwards bc of this whole trying to avoid purity culture to the point where everyone is sexualizing themselves in the name of “impowerment” I just hate the whole “women in men’s fields” thing. I genuinely don’t even think purity culture is the norm anymore, it’s being extra provocative to “fight the patriarchy” but it genuinely think it doesn’t do what everyone thinks it does
Feeling sexy and doing things to feel good about that isn’t a man’s field. Are men the only people that can say what’s sexy and have destroyed the concept for the rest of us? Also purity culture is real asf where I live and in my family and we’re in a liberal ass situation- women don’t do stuff for the sake of empowerment unless there’s something real that they’re empowering themselves FROM
I guess I don’t mean this specific instance if it’s just personal sexy pics to make yourself feel confident. I just meant the whole anti purity movement (not into purity culture don’t support btw) is not what ppl think it is😭 ur doing what the men want atp and just claiming it’s for yourself or other women. I’m just not explaining myself very well
I just don’t understand the ‘claiming it’s for me but it’s actually for men’ I don’t put on cute makeup and dress up in alternative/jfashion styles for men I do it for women and myself bc I’m a sapphic bisexual lmao. Like not everything women do is for men- men would get turned on by a curvy tree like that isn’t my problem. They have to deal with seeing hot shit like I do. Anti purity means that we need to stop victim blaming women and their fashion for men’s bad choices, and that women can wear
sexualizing yourself for a man is wrong either way but i don't think that's what any of the women who are upvoting and replying to this meant let's not lump that in with being anti purity culture though bc it goes way deeper than being about what men think but about the plethora of young women who felt uncomfortable to come out of their shell in fear of what society will have to say about it
