Women are not obligated to wear makeup or long hair, heels and skirts. They are not obligated to have plastic surgery to look feminine enough for the rightwing misogynists.
@CStamp@ddr I still do wonder about pink though. I have a profoundly disabled daughter, who can make basic choices, eg between 2 t shirts in a shop: and she always goes for pink sparkly stuff. I’m not sure how she could be influenced
@oftencalledcathy@ddr kids like sparkles. They can have colour preferences. Blue and pink for boys and girls, though, was arbitrarily decided by marketers. It almost went the other way. Girls are often put in pink since babyhood, though, so that does leave an imprint.
