as someone who has never actually experience pretty privilege (mostly due to the fact that i’m not conventionally beautiful), the onslaught of fat shaming and comparisons, if anything, made my body dysmorphia and relationship with food worse (i am getting better!). pretty privilege sucks ass.

just purely from what some friends have said about pretty privilege in general (the sexualising and getting free stuff), it only divides people more, driving insecurities towards women who are not pretty enough to MEN. it doesn’t help that the onslaught of slut-shaming towards people who are attractive (who are also successful) exists too. honestly it sucks and we all deserve so much better. we are all beautiful and we all deserve to be treated the same, regardless of our attractiveness.
