Weaponized femininity is nothing more than glittery capitalism.
Your red lipstick isn’t made from the blood of 10,000 men. Your eyeliner isn’t sharp enough to puncture the patriarchy. And it sure as hell isn’t your fucking warpaint. Those items are wax and pigment (and Lord knows what else) that you paid anywhere between $1 and $50 dollars for that ends up lining the pocket of some white man who doesn’t need to do half as much as you do to be seen as acceptable in the business world. And this is coming from someone who wears makeup by the pound.
No one’s saying you can’t like makeup but stop trying to make it more than what it is.
