I was talking about how media and society generally expect women to get all dressed up like they're going on a date all the time, nothing to do with reeking or looking unclean. One former coworker had our boss complain to her that she never wore makeup. Our workplace? A dog grooming shop, where she spent the entire day scrubbing poop out of fur and getting soaked, slobbered on, and plenty of other things. Whether she wore makeup outside of work should have been her business and no one else's(she would frequently talk about her favorite brands on breaks so I assume she did), but apparently being in the back where no one will see you with a dress code of "something comfortable that you don't mind getting dirty and for the love of god don't wear nice shoes" means omg, put some concealer on, ew! Meanwhile, of of the guys who worked there would normally show up looking like he just rolled out of bed and headed to work was totally fine even if his hair hadn't been washed in forever and he kind of smelled.

And how do I know people think I'm ugly? Uh, let's see, personal experience? Being laughed at and having nasty comments directed at me no matter how nice I try to look? Having that shit thrown at me constantly since I was a child, even by adult caretakers? There are plenty of ways I know. You're either conventionally attractive or at least average, or you live in a seriously lax area when it comes to what's expected of women.
