(though I'm not really here to try to argue that Brienne is actually a beauty by standards outside of normal because it can get uncomfortable when we can't just accept that sometimes a woman isn't very nice to look at and that's perfectly okay).

Yeah, this. Like I get the frustration at beauty standards being so narrow, that is fucked up, but the fact that any assertion that a woman is not attractive, regardless of the point the person is trying to make by doing so, is met with "SHUT UP YES SHE IS! SHE'S BEAUTIFUL! don't listen to them baby you're still worthy" is depressing. We need a movement to recognize more types of beauty but we also need one to recognize hey maybe some people really are just not pretty but they're still people. Reinforcing the idea that unattractiveness is a death sentence by coming up with reasons everyone is a sexy goddess seems counterproductive IMO.
