That may be true in your personal experience but just look at the comments in question. The way they’re worded just screams man. The sort of judgemental comment where they think they’re being supportive or some shit but just come off condescending, completely ignoring their male privilege.
To me, it’s the pervasive assumption that people get surgery for the people looking at them. That and they really don’t care that chuds on the internet wish for them to be “natural.”
Exactly. They do it for themselves. If you’re not going to be supportive of their decisions, don’t say anything at all. Lemmy is awesome, for the most part, but it leans heavily male and is often not a terribly welcoming place for women. I’ve given up trying to explain these things in a tone that won’t get downvoted, so I’m just blunt instead and accept the downvotes.
Be like the lady in the meme. Say what you want bc you want to say it. Never think about downvotes. Mostly bc they don’t matter but more importantly, you’ve seen what those kinds of people upvote.

Yeah you have a point, women are more “I bet she got plastic surgery” whereas men are more “She looked better without plastic surgery”.
