Ultimate pick me- Stephaine Lange?
Maybe it’s just me, but I watched Stephanie Lange’s latest video where she’s basically talking about influencers “getting ugly” and… girl, what are we doing here 😭
Like, who made you the official judge of what counts as attractive? People’s faces and bodies are not public property just because they’re influencers. You can dislike someone’s makeup, styling, procedures, whatever, but turning it into a whole discussion about how someone is “ugly” feels so unnecessarily mean-spirited.
And honestly, the whole “I’m not like these other influencers, I’m going to call out how ugly everyone is” vibe just gives me massive pick-me energy. There’s a difference between critiquing beauty standards and simply putting other women down to position yourself above them.
You can absolutely discuss trends like overfilled lips, excessive cosmetic procedures, filters, etc. without literally ranking people’s attractiveness. Critique the beauty culture, not individual women’s faces.
Maybe I’m overreacting, but the whole thing just left such a bad taste in my mouth. 😭
Curious what everyone else thought of the video because I genuinely want to know if I’m alone in finding the whole premise weird
