I just spent an hour in target buying things for my daughter’s freshman dorm. The dichotomy between the I-don’t-even-know-what-to-call-it-section  - toiletries, self care, personal hygiene, whatever- for girls vs boys is totally freaking me out. 

It’s a 12:1 aisle ratio. Twelve aisles of skin care, hair care, makeup, and more, marketed to girls, to a single aisle marketed to guys.

What is happening? I’m counting the cumulative time girls are wasting choosing products. Someone tell me I’m wrong to be depressed?

she isn’t wrong to be depressed that her daughter is being targeted by a massively powerful marketing machine just bc your sisters were more well behaved than their brothers and your dad bought them stuff :)

this is about the ridiculous pressure society puts on women to alter appearances and fit a mould, and then the disgusting amount of consumption that is expected of them. not if it’s easier to raise a boy or girl
