Let’s normalize being pale as fuck bcs I can’t keep up with the pressure to get a tan cause I can’t afford skin cancer, I have too many problems already

@winchestersalvat reaaaallllll, always felt pressured and insecure of my pale skin, and wanted to be tan because people kept pressuring me why I was white as a North African and that I was supposed to be more tan…

@cardansnemesiss i don’t think they find it ugly, i think they believe it’s odd. But there is an expectation that I should change that so I think it is a beauty standard thing. I think the girls getting tan look amazing, all gorgeous baddies, but I can’t do it, I would think about skin cancer the entire time

@missfrenchgirly preaaaach. I actually find it so sad seeing people using tan spray or brightening creams because of whatever beauty standard is trending. Changing yourself to fit in shouldnt be the way. 
          	  
          	  I have olive complexion and i get tan easily too, now years ago my relatives would keep saying how dark i was and basically made jokes about it. But now that tanning is trendy the same people give me compliments. OH SO NOW YOU LIKE ME? 
          	  
          	  The society will never get satisfied no matter what we do. So its just better to sometimes stop caring at all and just like ourselves the way we are.

@winchestersalvat "some" ? More like majority of them, haha. I think the most interesting-and not so cringe-story is from Bazookah. I forgot the name, but it's the one about the girl moving into the house w/ the Mafia don.
          
           All of these stories are toxic and so far from reality (or at least we think so), but I like that he wasn't all over her talking about some, "that cvnt is mine and blah blah blah" bc that immeditely makes me want to click off. I strongly dislike that kind of stuff. I like when characters actually connect and yearn for each other. But ofc, danger is always exciting when it's not your life, loll.

I take it you're a supernatural fan?

@missfrenchgirly actually, no. I used to be many moons ago, I just didn’t want to change my username bcs i interacted with a lot of my favorite authors over the years while using this name so I kinda felt bound to it. Also, after interacting with so many people, it’s probably easy to recognize and remember if we fuck with each other or not

Hey guys, about the virus bullshit, let’s shut it down, let’s wrap it up and go home. They should have sink that ship in a place with a lot of sharks. Like, explode earth already cause what are we even doing at this point? Let’s collectively give up

@winchestersalvat exactly, its literally so selfish of them. I have zero sympathy for them, especially with the money they’ve apparently got lying around. This shows us again how a couple of rich people are more important than the rest of the population. I hate it here. Also, I really believe this is also set up as something bigger by the governments. But I believe people will NOT accept another lockdown and will actually lose their minds

@sxell_ we are really going to die bcs a bunch of rich people had 15k lying around for vacation, I hate it here. These people went into planes and interacted with others who didn’t choose to get into that ship, people who were probably just working or going to see their families, PEOPLE WHO HAVE CHILDREN AT HOME, but apparently that’s not important

I think we need to eradicate romance books with millionaires/billionaires or at least tone it down, like I get it that it makes the story easier when the characters have money, but is it that hard to make characters that just have a nice regular job that provide them a secure stable life? The whole office/company romance with these tech bros is so boring and they always come from rich families. (This excludes athletes/sports romance bcs we get to see them giving blood, sweat, tears, concussions and broken bones so the money makes sense to me). I think I just have a deep hatred for corporate life

@missfrenchgirly the mafia ones are nepo babies too, they took over after the father. I think some of these books got really repetitive and I got bored

@winchestersalvat I love how active you are on here, and I love in engaging in discussions bc this place is way too dry w/o it, lol.
            
            I feel this way too, which is why as a writer I avoid even using those words. In the book that I'm currently working on, my main guy is a buissnessman but I don't go into detail on whether or not he's a millionaire/billionaire, bc I'm sickkk of characters being millionaires at a young age. Like yes, it's possible, it's happened, but it's overdone in stories.
            
            Billionaire CEO at 20? Is that even possible if you're not a nepo baby? Like??
            
            Another thing is for Mafia stories...how is the 22-year-old leader already the most powerful and feared of them all? The Mafia leader is always super duper young. Maybe that's actually how it is, idk. Ik that for royal families, the kids are prepped early on to become princes or princesses.
            
            It's kind of like

For the 100th time someone said I look like I’m around 14-17 years old. I GET IT OKAY I DONT LOOK LIKE A BADDIE IN MY EARLY 20S I UNDERSTAND STOP SAYING IT FFS IM STRUGGLING HERE. I think if someday I try to go somewhere and someone asks me where are my parents I will never recover. I still think about the woman who said “i thought you were 14”, it’s been months already…

Just leaving a warning for anyone seeing my board in the future. If you’re bothered by the previous conversation… sucks to be you, I guess. I’m the president of the “women should  talk freely about sex, sexuality, period and women’s health in general in order to normalize those topics and help each other” club. If you don’t like it, I don’t care
