yeah, i was an easy sell on this kind of writing as a teen too because i didn't care about make-up, or fashion! and it wasn't until i was much older that i looked back and realised how horribly sexist that kind of trope is, just in a different way, and how badly it still squashes us into little boxes.

you can be nerdy and like books.

or you can like make-up and clothes.

CHOOSE ONE! and like, that's just so horribly limiting whichever angel you come at it. i'm glad it's being seen for the cruddy writing it is these days, but i also sadly get how teen girls who aren't a-typically feminine can get sucked into writing like this when everything else in society is telling you to be pretty and like make-up.

the real freedom is realising you can like whatever the fuck you want: screw other people's hang-ups and perceptions.
