Hot take

With absolutely zero education I say all this btw. The disturbing rise in the coquette aesthetic and women and girls wanting to look "unreal" or like dolls is infantile and gross. I get that dolls are cute and its fun to dress like one, but promoting eating disorders to acheive this shape is weird because now not only are you dressing in frilly childlike dresses and acting dainty, docile, and delicate, but you are using large contact lenses and makeup to make your face appear smaller and cuter while aiming to have the thinnest frame as possible. I think the entire concept is disturbing as it presents women as LITERAL objects to a global audience of young girls and women, who now WANT to look like pretty lifeless objects at the cost of their physical health. Why is it all "Im just a girl" "Im literally a doll" "I want to look unreal" "I hate calories" and the ENTIRETY OF EDTWT BEING IN ON THIS. Eating disorders are not healthy, and i think its weird that suddenly everyone (YOUNG GIRLS AND WOMEN) want to look like small, skinny, dainty dolls with large eyes and soft lips. The purpose of dolls is not to take away from our own existence as human beings; they are simply small human tokens associated with a variety of cultural, societal, and religious values. 

I REFUSE TO REWRITE THIS OR USE PROPER GRAMMAR AND PUNCTUATION. 

<3

does anyone else agree or is it just me?

HEHEHAHA nothing i just like that you agreed, I'm glad I'm not the only one. Realistically, who is this "dolly aesthetic" actually benefiting? (MENMENMEN ITS MEN MENMENMENMENMENMENM) And with Trump being re-elected its more apparent than ever that even in first world countries who boast of equality and "freedom", we will always live in a mans world.

i blame lana del rey tbh i hate her sm

by ⛧⸸vixxie⸸⛧; ; Report

I blame the ENTIRETY OF SOCIETY, people are sick. Young girls and women don't just decide they want to devalue themselves for the male gaze, this behavior is taught and glamorized for us to internalize.

by I Am A God; ; Report

thats actually true i was just joking about the lana del rey thing lolll

by ⛧⸸vixxie⸸⛧; ; Report

oh mbmb im kinda slow on jokes, I MEAN SOME OF HER MUSIC IS GOOD MY FRIENDS LIKE HER...but i dont perosnally listen to her music. If im gonna indulge in media that glamorizes older relationships its gonna be rock/grunge/punk

by I Am A God; ; Report

thats so real because her music is not good enough to be fetishizing ab4se and p3d0philia... (idk if I'll get banned for saying certain words on here??)

or at least get me some ayesha erotica

by I Am A God; ; Report

yeah ayesha is another exception i'll make :P

by ⛧⸸vixxie⸸⛧; ; Report

its all very difficult to categorize music as ethical and non ethical. Humans are so flawed its hard to keep track of which artists and bands are good people who you want to support by streaming. SO MANY CONTRADICTIONS

THISSSS, and its been bothering me for some time..some people are either degenerating mentally or are alr degens who want an excuse to indulge in weird online culture. If men were doing this online everyone would be raging, just because its girls and women doesnt make it better.

I absolutely agree, the actual coquette style is nice and all but it's pretty disturbing to see people slowly incorporate eating disorders and pedophilic values into it - I hope this dies out eventually, it's not okay

yes!! i've noticed with that style of makeup, it's very easy to cloak your features and to morph into another person. i personally adore doing makeup that's kinda creepy and unnatural, but i've noticed that many people who do a lot all the time tend to forget their real faces? when you start making your irises bigger and changing the direction of your nose to look like a porcelain doll, i can't help but worry that people will be off put by their humanness. i think the style itself is cute, but how people are treating it and going about obtaining it is a refection of something much darker. We are real human beings, even if that's scary sometimes.

Oh of course! Dolly makeup is cute, and a lot of makeup styles are supposed to look unnatural. HOWEVER i am talking solely about the fact that "dolly makeup" is some weird infantilized makeup style or just blatant asian fishing. I agree though, forgetting your natural face is pretty concerning, with people wanting to look like objects...

thank god shes cancelled now her concepts were SO weird

by I Am A God; ; Report

so glad someone agrees... I always found her weird & offputting precisely because of the doll thing

by kitkatanddog; ; Report

HARDLY THE DOLL THING, THE WAY SHE USED..DARE I SAY "BABY AESTHETIC"?? Honestly i never paid attention to her but i saw some of her merch was baby bottle themed? Or a lot of the predatory songs she wrote, even about trauma, were not things she had actually experienced...

by I Am A God; ; Report

I mean I'm not an expert on the flavour of unsettling she was because I never engaged with her work but all of what you described is totally not okay on her part. I'm glad I missed that era of the internet

by kitkatanddog; ; Report

i wasnt even on the internet, i jsut caught glimpses of her existence and wonder how nobody caught onto it earlier.

Women are expected to look in a completely unnatural way... That's rare

its really not, im just saying specifically the whole doll aesthetic is getting weird and creepy. Thats it thats allll

by I Am A God; ; Report

I understand, it's making me sick. Everytime I speak up abt it I get criticized for being an angry feminist that can't take the fact girls want to be pretty when they are basically destroying themselves

by ♕ River ♛; ; Report

YESSS thats exactly what i meant, its ALL over twitter and the rise in popularity with asian culture is really getting to everyone. Tell me why everyone is obsessed with childlike anime girls/figures acting like its ok since theyre girls but if it were men we would be calling them creepy lolicons. The appreciation for "doll aesthetic" is going in the wrong direction T-T
