Interesting right!

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!! 🥹

Oh interesting stat! I had a feeling it was high but 95% is crazy when you think about it! Yess haha I am working on something very exciting and i will cover that topic xx

Alot of people have that take!

I don't wear makeup by choice, and I decided against wearing it at my own wedding (it was an extremely casual, light-hearted affair). If my fiancé could be seen without makeup, as a man, then so could I! Still got a lot of comments on how 'inappropriate' this idea was (obviously from people who weren't invited in the first place lmao).

Wow I didn't see that but that's crazy! How she chose to show up on HER wedding day is being critiqued??? Make it make sense

The same goes for skinny people and bodybuilders that promote unhealthy lifestyles. I think people also sometimes attack overweight people from a moral place because the influencers use aesthetics and morality as a basis for their negative empowerment. But, I do agree that looks shouldn’t make us favour other people over other people and comment negatively just because we find them unattractive.

Thank you !! I hear you but I believe there are way too many people who are mean to fat people and pretend it's concern. They're not concerned in the slightest. Those people are different from those who are genuinely concerned and I think you can often spot the difference

I'm coming!

🤎

That's ok

Imagine 😂

Such interesting points!!

Right!

Not to be rude but I don’t think this video was meant for you

@@SpiritVines Clearly her audience is primarily young women, but does that mean others shouldn't engage in a respectful manner? And the subject of her video is the beauty standards in which both men and women uphold and enforce. Her goal of dismantling the current paradigm won't happen if men aren't involved in it as well. Or do you it see it differently?

If a beautiful, almost topless lady newscaster was consistently bad at her job, would you still prefer her show to an average looking middle-aged male forecaster who was doing a great job? That's the rhetorical question. We need to keep in mind that beauty and attractiveness can occasionally make us leap to wrong conclusions about people and what they do. Never did Adella say that we're not supposed to enjoy others' beauty or that it's purely a result of social standards. Right at the start of the video she mentions that it's a natural phenomenon to a big extent.

@@aimee9478 Would I prefer a beautiful woman who is bad at her primary job? Well, no. But these aren't the choices we are usually faced with. For instance, lets go back to the Romeo & Juliet performance Adella brought starring the Black actress. I don't know what that Juliet might have looked like, but lets just say she is squarely average looking, but a very competent actress. In that case, my actual choices are between her and a VERY long list of drop-dead gorgeous Black actresses who are also equally competent. I vaguely remember this story, but if I recall correctly, that Juliet was heavily harassed. I would never engage in that disgusting behavior. But if you asked me, as a casting director, to choose between two similarly competent actresses for the starring role, then yes, I'll almost always choose the more attractive one unless there was some other overriding consideration. I think most people would do the same, and I don't think they are necessarily wrong to do it when dealing with a visual medium. If we were dealing with radio, then I would find some other discerning factor to make my decision. Do you think that's unreasonable? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

​@@PrimeCayesBrother, if I may be so blunt, I'm not so sure why you write so many paragraphs just to state that pretty privilege exists. We all know that, and there's not much to do about it, because most of us are indeed attracted to those we deem aesthetically pleasing, regardless of our race and gender. Going back to your example: cinema is way more than just beauty. Depending on a character that an actor is supposed to play, as a casting director I'd go for a certain 'vibe' rather than pick the most 'beautiful' one. At the end of the day, beauty is not that easily defined. One of my co-workers thinks Keanu Reeves is 'bland' when I think he's one of the most handsome actors I've ever seen. Many would call Adam Driver's looks, um, disharmonious, yet the way he played the character of Kylo Ren had made tons of young women crazy about him in an instant. Would a more stereotypically attractive actor have been more successful? Well, we don't really know. An example of Juliet is ultimately boring because sorry not sorry but it's a very one note character. This is not necessarily the case with many other characters in our media. As for the forecast lady example, personally I feel like getting too s*xy in a setting inappropriate for that is, well, inappropriate, but I'm kinda conservative, and I wouldn't necessarily blame people for eating the eye candy. I just think it's tacky, but s*x does sell.

Haha love that!

MEN especially. Lots of unattractive men around with the MOST to say about women

Oop! You're not wrong. I think there's a deeper reason behind that (that I don't have the brain capacity to unpack haha)

I love it too

She keeps it cute and simple

Thanks so much!

Thank you!!!
