Have you ever wondered, why are women so dang pretty? In this article, I shall detail what makes women so nice to look at.
Women have pretty hair and cute dresses and cool makeup and can wear flowers in their hair and wear floral print and I just like the shape of women and I like being a woman because it means I get to be pretty and I love women because I'm gay. I love women who have cool spikes and belts and flannel and leather and straps and piercings and tattoos and big boots with tall heels because I'm a dyke.
Women historically were also socialized to care about their appearances more than men. You have decades of patriarchy to thank for that. Women used to not be able to have their own bank accounts or own property, so they had to find a man who could provide for them. Now that women are becoming more equal to men, women don't have to be pretty to survive, but years of misogyny have conditioned men and women alike to be more critical of women who don't conform to high beauty standards. So, women are conditioned to keep up their appearances to maintain their social status. I'm sure I'm simplifying things and missing tons of feminist analysis, but that's the jist.
