I wish more people would talk more about the fact that teen girls aren’t allowed to just be teen girls. I’m not even talking about the unrealistic beauty standards and expectations of girls to be thin, hairless, wear makeup, etc. (Although that’s also a problem that needs to be addressed) I’m actually talking about how people will wait for Billie Eilish to turn 18 so they can search her up on pornhub and sexualize her body and every little thing she does. I’m talking about how Greta Thunberg recently turned 18 and how there have been dozens of men threatening sexual violence against her and talking about all the horrific things they want to do to her. I’m also talking about how Millie Bobby Brown has two websites about her. One website counts down the days till she turns 18 and the other one is where grown men (and probably teenage boys as well) talk about all the graphic sexual things they want to do to her.

This isn’t okay. A teen girl suddenly turning 18 and becoming legal doesn’t change anything at all and the fact that so many men think that waiting until she’s a legal adult is being a “good guy” is so stupid. Just because you waited for her to turn 18, doesn’t mean you’re not a pedophile. It means that you had gross pedophilic thoughts about her while she was still a minor but you waited until she was legal to act on those thoughts. This makes you a predator and no amount of “but I waited 🥺” changes that.

Preparing myself for the people with no knowledge of ancient Egypt and Greece to come along with the casting of Gal Gabot as Cleopatra (although I am pretty pissed she isn’t being portrayed by a Macedonian actress) and they’ll say “they should have casted an Egyptian woman or a black woman” Cleopatra was not black nor was she Egyptian

Types of Girls: pretty french words

Aurore (dawn); stays up late, doesn’t say their deepest thoughts, quiet but their presence is warm, disappears to recharge, likes love letters & mornings

Bisou (kiss); gets crushes easily but may fear intimacy, loves soft things, cares a lot about what others think, wants love more than anything

Sourire (smile); always tries to be happy, friends with everyone, prefers movies over books, talks a lot, radiant smile, hard-working, gives the best hugs

Ange (angel); daydreams a lot, loves fashion & aesthetics, wishes they were a flower, loves affection, pure-hearted, moody, glowy skin and hair

Espoir (hope); seems calm, takes long showers, strong-minded, loud laugh, likes pet names & cliché things, will be there for you, loves new beginnings

Sirène (mermaid); scared of being alone, carefree, loves the moon, bilingual, mood changes like the weather, sad most of the time, a bit mysterious

valentine’s day films + aesthetics

camille (1936): laying in the grass, too many sweets, kisses all over, candlelight, knowing glances, being carried, romantic getaways, wearing flowers, smudged makeup, “it’s complicated”

love affair (1939): being alone together, engraved gifts, staring out the window, serene villas, signed photos, the glistening ocean, making promises, pink champagne

casablanca (1942): treasured memories, handwritten letters, vintage pianos, tight hugs, dancing cheek to cheek, moonlit shadows, tears in your eyes, a special song, heartache

you were never lovelier (1942): notes in bouquets of flowers, secret admirers, fairytale fantasies, twinkling lights, twirling, richly feminine bedrooms, grand romantic gestures

love in the afternoon (1957): luxury hotel rooms, provocative anklets, picnics in the sun, listening to live music, putting flowers in each other’s hair, private boat rides, white carnations, teasing

the reluctant debutante (1958): goosebumps, disapproval from your parents, elegant balls, mini sequin purses, searching for your crush in the crowd, proper manners, late nights

it’s been 345903845098 days and I’m still bitter about Cho and Vega

forever bitter
