We've been pressured into pretending everyone is beautiful, except for those who actually are
Are Sydney Sweeney’s breasts double-D harbingers of the death of woke?
This is what the public is asking, at least those on social media, after the Euphoria actress garnered a particularly large audience as host of Saturday Night Live (SNL) last week. Sweeney is obviously a conventionally attractive young woman; and if you don’t personally admire her beauty, we can certainly all agree that she’s got a voluminous appeal. Sweeney knows this and runs with it, playfully owning her sex appeal with zero apologies. On SNL, she bulged from her tops, self-deprecatingly suggested that her breasts are her backup career, and — now virally — donned a Hooters uniform for a rather unsophisticated sketch dedicated to her overflowing cups.
Exactly how this led to a cultural cataclysm over beauty and wokeness can be summarized as follows: We’ve spent years being chastised for desiring or admiring beauty — because beauty is rare and exclusionary, and to exclude is to hate — or so we’ve been scolded to accept by today’s diversity, equity, and inclusion fanatics. We aren’t supposed to admire Sweeney’s beauty; but we’ve done it anyways. The times, they are a-changin’. Aren’t they?
Recall the words of unrepentant thought criminal Jordan Peterson on the plus-sized model that graced the cover of Sports Illustrated two years back: “Sorry. Not beautiful. And no amount of authoritarian tolerance is going to change that.” To this day the man is partly facing censure from his professional regulator over these words. We’ve all been pressured into pretending that we are bad people if we aren’t attracted to every influencer-wannabe who is unattractive by any reasonable standard of beauty.

Perfect.
Where is Laz when you need him?
Glad to see she is moving on with her life. She took it pretty hard when I dumped her.
You are correct. These people posting on here sound like they don’t like the death of woke and are trying to mitigate it by attempting to contradict the laws of physics.
Anyone on here who tries to downplay her beauty is suspect.
I am musically incompetent, my dancing is more enthusiastic than adequate. I could not get through Chandrasekhars “Stellar Evolution”, nor “Finnegans Wake”. I (we) are not rich, though more than sufficiently well off. I am no entrepreneur, though I have tried a few times. I don’t like taking risks.
I’m having trouble learning Basque. I have been learning French for fifty years and still can’t hold a conversation.
Does that suffice?
LOL! So true.
Audrey Hepburn…. Ingrid Bergman…. Sophia Loren….
She’s a woman and proud of it! No androgyny there!
Audrey Hepburn did not have the T&A of say… Sophia Loren or Sophia Vergara . Apples and oranges . But that face and the entire body….. something about the whole being greater than the sum of the parts.
...and a Philly girl originally.
Yeah….
“But that face and the entire body….. something about the whole being greater than the sum of the parts.”
Agreed. She just looked like she’d be “fun”. And...classy, too.
She’s a good looking young woman. Not fat, not too skinny. Not excessively muscle bound. A good all rounder.

Thank you!
Rachel Weisz has had extensive olastic surgery, about 10 years ago. It’s not obvious now because time has softened the harshness of it.

She was featured in the Rolling Stones ‘Angry’ video. Recently she’s been taking flak from the woke crowd for allowing herself to be ‘objectified’. She’s fought back and talked about how much she enjoyed doing the video.
If you can get through the ad crap on Youtube, worth watching. She is a very attractive lass.
