I'm not surprised to see authoritarian women on ovarit. I'm surprised to see someone calling for nuance though.

It isn't your responsibility to ban surgery and decide what's a legitimate case or not. Or ban makeup. You don't get to decide for me what is reasonably covering up blemishes, what is fun personal expression, or what is "too much," something I did for "the male gaze" etc, because I'm too stupid to know how advertising works.

It is your responsibility to hold up values that nurture healthy individuals who aren't image-obsessed, narcissistic, fooled by marketing, and so on. A responsibility we appear to be failing at, but nonetheless.
