fuck the patriarchy

i get that this is a fluff site but it’s still sickening how prominent and accepted this is in our culture. this shit is the front news article of yahoo!, what is that supposed to communicate to women?!

That our bodies serve a specific purpose, and it is the viewing pleasure of men. Obviously, you should be picking your swimsuit based on the male gaze and not on, y’know, what makes you feel happy and good about yourself.

“A few even compared the concept as being synonymous to men wearing T-shirts in the pool.”

Get it? ‘Cuz men are ENTITLED to look at and judge our nearly naked bodies, so tankinis are CHEATING.

In related news, all the men who participated in this survey met afterwards to drink Jaeger bombs and high five each other while yelling “No fatties!”, where they were all murdered by an unknown 6’1” blonde assailant wearing a t-shirt saying “MISANDRY 4 LIFE”.

OH GOODIE, I don’t think women as a whole were concerned enough about what they looked like in a swimsuit. It’s been at least 30 seconds since I’ve seen an ad referencing the phrase “bikini body” so obviously the patriarchy needs to work harder.
