It's funny that they hold out awhile for you to pivot to, I dunno, asking for a dick pic in Old English. You're not flipping the script on this one, my dudes
I wonder if that was THE standard or if it was the standard for artists and writers and people of one class. I wonder if there were more variable standards before the advent of advertising and continual imagery, for example. Even now, there are surprisingly variable tastes in physical appearance. Though we generally know what counts as ‘beautiful’ people have a variety of preferences about physical appearance.
True - but when "the fairest" literally means both "the most beautiful" and "having the whitest skin," it's safe to say it's a widespread cultural norm.
Ohhh, this is a delightful example of how interesting history is, and one more entry in the endless rolls of men demonstrating they're nothing more than worthless dirtbags...
Brooke, you are a trailblazer! I love your work and how you continually push others (these gross men) to see past their own shit. You rock and are a badass bitch!
Barf, lmao. These dudes have gotten way less creative in their responses and quests for nudes. Yours are still gold though. 🤣🫶
You would think a nude painting would have been better received than that!
As a 68 year old guy, I am both horrified and mystified about my "peers". I Enjoy your content!
Understandably. I’m glad you aren’t one of them!
So plucking a stray chin hair is right up there with murder?!
Even my plump belly and modest breasticles could not have saved me...
Sorry. To hell with you!
"You can be beautiful, but you can't try." Man, if anything has ever summed up the way Western men think about women, it's that.

I love these chats so much, they make me laugh every time. Thanks!
