Can you be a radfem if you conform to patriarchal beauty standards? (Makeup, procedures, etc)

I’m 19F I find myself in great agreement with radical feminism I understand how the patriarchy operates in its many ways and how it is deeply embedded in our lives.

I therefore also understand that as women our choice to “become pretty” is rooted in patriarchy and millennia of women being held up to these harsh standards etc from a young age

As for myself I am no different to any other girl who is being consumed by these standards and practices . I hate to admit it but I have an eating disorder since I was 13 and I always need to be thin, as soon as I turned 18 I got a lip flip, some lip filler which I do regret, I’m still considering other procedures to be more “beautiful” knowing well this is all inherently anti feminist. I also wear makeup when I go out but I try to be makeup free when I don’t need it.

I’m so disappointed with myself because I understand that this mismatches with my thinking so does that just make me a hypocritical radfem or not a radfem at all? I’m clearly not practicing what I preach ( I don’t tell anyone not to wear makeup or anything, I am against plastic surgery despite wanting it myself🤕 … ) but nonetheless I fully agree with the ideology

What do you all think? I hope to get better

Travelling with peptides(needles) from the UK

Hi guys, I’m going away tomorrow for around three weeks and I’m not so concerned about the peptides themselves but most about the needles

Has anyone had trouble with travelling with the needles and can I just put them in my checked baggage or must they be on my carry on? Why and will they ask me questions because I don’t have any documentation to justify bringing them?

Help, please
