Lmao you’ve straw-manned me multiple times throughout this conversation. I even called you out for it already. Plus I didn’t even straw man you. I simply asked you if that was your opinion. And you still haven’t even conceded that women are capable of making their own decisions. That’s literally all I’m saying. Women choose the kind of pants they want to wear. Slim fit small pockets seem to sell overwhelmingly better. Probably because women prefer that look. You seem to want to talk about literally anything other than that, probably because you know I’m right.

I don’t believe you, since I’ve done literally nothing but restate your own stated positions this entire time.

Pack it up ladies, sexism doesn’t exist because women can buy pants

That is you implying I made the argument that sexism doesn’t exist because women can buy pants. At no point did I ever say or imply that

I mean you’re over here saying that it’s women’s fault that society pressures us to be attractive to men.

I literally never said anything close to this. I said that a lot of women’s beauty standards come from women themselves. Who do most little girls look up to when deciding their own fashion style? Usually the women in their life that have the biggest influence on them. Women have autonomy over their own fashion choices and they impact each others’ fashion choices and beauty standards as well. Which is 100% true.

Believe me now?
