[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It helps to live in the DMV where I’ve never seen a woman wear makeup. I guess if I lived in CA or TX I might be reaching for these interventions more.[/quote] +1. My office is full of 40-65 year old women, and no one does anything. I feel like doing anything would make me stand out in a weird way.[/quote] This is why the DMV sucks so bad. You don't have to have a Mar-a-lago face to look nice. I dress up everyday and do wear makeup. I certainly stand out in the office. I also get a LOT of compliments because I act like I give a sh*t. I do all the things. Botox, micro-needling, chemical peels, really good skincare. I recently had filler dissolved that was initially under my eyes for hallows, but it moved into my cheeks. If you didn't know you wouldn't notice b/c I have high cheekbones, but it bothered me. Much happier without it. I also dress nicely and am thin. I am very fit. I'm 56. I'm not trying to look younger, just really good for my age. [/quote] Just people are polite enough not to mention your messed up fillers doesn’t mean they didn’t notice.[/quote] That's really mean. Why are women saying these kinds of things? It's the patriarchy getting us to fight. I probably won't ever get fillers, Botox, etc, but I don't know why we're tearing each other down. I don't think either way is right or says something larger about society. It's the mommy wars continued. [/quote] I’m confident that sticking chemicals in your face to fight a losing battle is the wrong way. I have no idea what you are prattling on about the patriarchy and mommy wars. Lord. Women don’t gain, nearly what they lose, when they spend so much money on their appearance.[/quote] You continue to prove my point with the sexist term "prattling on."[/quote] I am happy to report that prattling on is an equal opportunity insult.[/quote] Nope. Nobody says that about men. Here you are certain that your thoughts about beauty are the right way, but you're ignoring the ugliness within. [/quote] I do, especially when they make dumb comments. So how is taking issue with women spending $$$ to inject their faces with chemicals to fight a losing battle with aging part of the patriarchy? You never were able to defend that pathetic statement. [/quote] + a million. Absurd. But she does this sht to be “better” than other women, and cannot admit it to herself.[/quote] LOL. I think I'm "better" than other women because I'm asking people to stop caring about who "ages gracefully" and who does not because it's a no-win battle?! I'm not on here needing a cookie because I don't do Botox. Obviously both of you have to judge other women because you're not comfortable in your own skin. This started with the other pp being pissed that I called out her mean comment. [/quote]
