the fact she literally looks like a clown, both physically and intellectually...
[audio transcript]
I don’t like makeup. I’m against makeup. I don’t think it’s good for women and I don’t think they really need to be using it honestly. Makeup is capitalising on women’s insecurities when it’s something that they can easily fix. I think it takes away from a woman’s natural beauty, and also it is so bad for you. Like, you think about how skin absorbs things. When you read the ingredients on a foundation bottle, what is in it? You can’t even pronounce it. It’s a bunch of crap that you’re putting on your face. And that is in turn making your skin worse, so that you have to keep buying more foundation.
The original audio clip is from a podcast (radio show?) where the other women on the show are visibly rolling their eyes. It's gone viral with everyone calling the woman criticizing makeup a "pickme girl" and naturally, those comments are all over this video too. Like feminist critique makes you a pickme girl but doing your makeup over the sound of said critique to show that you're way too cool to care about such things doesn't qualify.
#i used to wear excessive makwup because of insecurity#but i NEVER thought it actually looked good. i just thought my bare face was so horrifically ugly that#caked on pigments were somewhat more tolerable than my bare face.#the women who wear makeup are pickmes.#so i have no problem calling them out on how stupid they look especially if they look stupid while putting other women down.

and hmmmm maybe i will continue to Instigate. i have talked about the concept of "pick me girls" before on this blog and why i don't like it. and i truly genuinely with all my heart believe that women complaining about "pick mes" are infinitely MORE of a "pick me" than the women they target. you can only repeat the same stuff for so long before you're just seething over nothing, yeah? and honestly, if you're going to claim to be feminist about it, i don't think it's very feminist to claim that everything a woman does, she does because she wants to get "picked" by a man. why do you think men are so special that everything you do needs to revolve around getting one? if a woman is doing something genuinely misogynist, you can call her a misogynist. because a lot of the time when i see whining about "pick mes" its not even a woman whos trying to get men to like her by tearing down other women. it's just a woman who like, thinks makeup is stupid (not misogynistic OR inherently pick-me behavior, because women do not pop out of the womb with a full face), or think girly things are frivolous (maybe you can call her a BITCH but you can't call her a misogynistic pick me girl for that alone). also the "pick me" concept being named after being PICKED (by men) just leads me to this idea that you're not actually mad about her tearing down other women, youre mad about the appeal to MEN since that is what's being centered in your language! and what's more "pick me behavior" than that?
#like i have literally been called a pickme because i dont like makeup#i didnt say a WORD about other women who wear it! i just said i didnt like it!#and its all 'ugh what are you trying to say? you clearly have soe internalized misogyny' no i think YOU do actually#if youre so defensive then try to unpack that on your own instead of taking it out on gnc women#because thats always who it targets. you dont have to make up a butch in your head#whos seethinggg about how youre just a pretty girl who likes girly things!#ive always known that i WILL be excluded from friendships with women because of my whole deal#and ive accepted that#but i CANNOT accept women being bullied over their opinions#by an ideology that claims to hate male-centrism over female community but who then makes#EVERYTHING they talk about about wanting to get with guys while ALSO TEARING DOWN OTHER GIRLS???

not kinky but it's an interesting experience being tmasc and also feminine in like a conventional beauty standards way. I keep seeing posts saying stuff like makeup is enforced on women and I agree!! but I still like wearing it bc it's pretty and i wanna be a pretty boy :3
#anyway makeup isn't like#terrible?#it sucks that women are pressured into wearing it#esp cause its expensive#but people who do want to wear it don't deserve to be shamed for it#they're not pickmes or craving male attention or whatever#(and frankly even if they are who gaf)#sometimes people just like having colors on their faces#and stamping little hearts on their cheeks#and having glitter on their eyelids#etc#no real tags here just rambling

”this character is an nlog!!!” and it’s just a female character being slightly masculine while not putting down other women/girls. “this girl is such a pickme!!!” and it’s just that she doesn’t like to shave and doesn’t like people forcing her to wear makeup. “she has internalized misogyny!!!” and she’s a feminist who happens to wear masculine clothes. i fucking hate when feminist/or political terms go mainstream, everyone starts using them incorrect.

IF INSTAGRAM BITCHES STILL WANT TO DISCOURSE 'PICKMES' IN MF 2023 OK HERE WE GO. I have many thoughts about how 'feminist' criticism of 'im not like other girls' is centered around the idea that the only reason why a teenage girl could ever feel like this is being motivated by 'male attention' alone, and never ever because, at that age they dont have much better language to describe the feeling of alienation from the gender roles and expectations on what it means to be a 'girl'. If u throw the term 'internalized misogyny' around so much it should not be hard for you to understand that women and even little girls are socially conditioned to reinforce the patriarchy, women are the guard dogs of the patriarchy actually. Like this is 101 shit to anyone that thinks they get to call themselves a 'feminist'. Little girls who are raised to believe that 'girls' should always be put together, not act up, obsessed with their looks, have to like pink and 'girly' stuff and its abnormal if they do not will often bully and ostraticize girls who dont conform or care about this type of social expectations and standards (depends on your environment, maybe you were lucky enough to not go to school with such girls, but it doesnt mean they dont exist). Like you are 6 years old and everyone ever gives you all clothes everything ever in pink like other colors dont exist - some kids have a very strong gut reaction to being told they 'have to' like something which is why so many girls had a long phase of hating the color pink. 'You HAVE TO like it as a girl' 'no, the fuck, i dont' is a reasonable reaction. These girls are told they are weirdos for being 'not like other (REAL) girls' because they dare to not like wearing hair in braids and skirts feel uncomfy to them since the beginning but if they choose to reclaim it and take pride in the fact they can just be themselves without caring what they are supposed to be like as 'girls', its them who have an internalized misogyny problem, never the girls who bullied them for being bad at makeup, right? 'Its not that all girls are this or that' they are fucking kids and teenagers and society was telling them all girls are this or that since day 1 and they ended up believing it, boo hoo. Performing feminity is unrealistic and hard enough for children that they feel alienated from the idea they are a 'real' girl. This brutal enforcement of 'feminity' which is an abstract concept as default in women and girls causes so much needless division between girls/women, it all causes needless polarization over the fact that we are human beings with different aesthetics, fashion, hobbies, temperaments, interests, personalities. We are made to feel like we dont belong, like we are freak abomitations who will never be 'real' women if our hair is messier and we dont care about having our nails done. How about that, how is none of that ever a part of the discussion. And some will say oh these girls were probably lesbian/bi/non-binary/trans dudes, but like my point here is that this shit is 100% alienating for cishet women as well and it doesnt make u inherently trans or something to not like pink and makeup lmfao
#and even the male attention part is partially motivated with the fact they dont have girl friends and are desperate to make friends#so theyll try being friends with boys since girls ostracized the shit out of them?#i feel like this discourse in early 2010s wasnt 1% as idiotic as its become nowadays. 'If U DoNt LiKe TsWiFt u HaVe InTeRnaLiZeD MiSoGyNy'#like im not saying the girls who do the bullying are necessarily the american high schoolbmovie bimbo cheerleader types either#but dont tell me teenage girls who will act like another girl going to school with greasy hair once in her life is something worthy of#mocking her about for over half a year are like.... not a thing n uve never met those lol

So I’m on tiktok and the bear vs man thing was popular until “booktok” and “dark romance readers” community started making thirst edits of this man wade wilson who brutally murdered two women with no remorse and has large swastika tattoos, calling him hot. It’s the same thing with those “true crime” girls that make edits and pages dedicated to serial killers and school shooters. They support women and feminism “UNTIL”.. 😒 and to no one’s surprise it’s mostly ⚪️ women doing this
I think a lot of female serial killer stans have a "I would change him 💗" syndrome but on a pathological level. They seemingly can't process they would most likely be another victim if they crossed their paths. And since most serial killers are known to be narc, they entertain this mess (if they're alive). See Charles Manson.
Those women don't come off to me as "feminist" - or more like "it's aktchually feminist to wear makeup uwu" kind of feminism.
I think a lot of those YA and erotica books are PSYOP/grooming ground for women to make them more tolerant to male abuse. "Fifty Shades of Gray" walked so all this bullshit could flock our bookstore shelves. In a normal world we would lock up those editors under the ground of society corruption. Glamorizing BDSM, cheating, age gaps/pedophilia, incest bestiality, etc.
I'm not defeatist though and I think this trend will also radicalize girls against everything the anti female agenda it perpetuates.
Thinking of it, I grew up with shōjo manga which as the most pickme culture you could think of (my favorite manga was "Fruits Basket" where the female protagonist is the biggest tradwaifu/nadeshiko you could think of and I still managed to never be a pickme) so there's hope lol

unpopular opinion but I think people get way too defensive if you bring up that like, there’s no real reason women need to wear makeup in the professional world in order to be respected, that’s actually kind of fucked up, like obviously there’s nothing inherently sexist about cosmetology and makeup artistry, but maybe you should think a little bit about why you feel the need to put on a full face before leaving the house and consider that the women with bare faces who you call “lazy” or “not put together” are trading in the labor time spent in front of the mirror for being a target of misogyny and might actually be doing something difficult and sort of brave
everyone will be like “I’m sick of these pickmes bragging about how they don’t need to wear makeup! Some of us have acne scars or rosacea and NEED to wear foundation every day! feminism is just attacking other women! maybe you’re the ones brainwashed by the patriarchy into thinking you need to act like men!” totally ignoring the questions of like… what about people who also have facial scars who don’t wear makeup? why is the idea of wearing cosmetics so firmly connected to femaleness in your mind?
disclaimer: I love the aesthetic and transformative qualities of makeup, I have effectively devoted a section of my life to the appreciation and application of eyeshadow, I have taken a theatrical makeup art class. I would just love for makeup to be something that women choose to wear, something special that signifies joy taken in self expression, rather than this extra obligation that’s expected of them.

I feel like I must’ve had a completely different high school and middle school experience compared to apparently a weird portion of women on the internet who are claiming that they were constantly shamed for wearing makeup like they were pariahs for partaking in a multimillion dollar industry.
I never once had a girl who didn’t wear makeup tell me she was better than me, I had older teachers tell me that less is more - but none ever told me to get rid of makeup altogether, my father mocked my bolder looks - but never mocked my sister’s basic natural shimmery makeup, and my grandmas tried to convince me to be happy without it. But according to everyone online, liking makeup is apparently a crime, persecuted like no other hobby, girls who don’t wear makeup are cackling all powerful pickme queens who subjugate the innocent makeup loving girly girls.
But I was mocked by makeup girlies for having crap eyeliner, for doing ugly eyeshadow colors, for being too bold, for having ugly foundation that looked chalky, for overdoing blush, for trying out blues and greens in the era of pinks and golds, and for looking like a child did my makeup. I was teased by the younger women of my family for looking tired and for not trying and for being lazy and teased by girls in school when I didn’t wake up in time to put it on. But idk apparently that’s not the norm??

How are women who don't wear makeup "pickmes"? A pickme is a woman who does everything for male attention. A woman who doesn't wear makeup is not trying to attract anyone. If anything, women who are obsessed with their appearance are the pickmes, we know you're not doing this for yourselves.
get a grip. take a reading comprehension course. and have a good day.

looking at some of the original useage of 'pickme' (on the internet) is crazy. cause the women theyre describing still exist today in tradwives and motherfuckers who think a girl being near a man is cheating but they rarely get called pickmes. instead its women who dont wear makeup or dont like pop music

i’m gonna need any essays or discussions about the “pickme” “not like other girls” phenomenon thoroughly vetted by ppl who correctly understand the gendered relationship to masculinity before i read them because while there are valid things to say about how the kind of femininity presentation expected of many women in society is also deemed “lesser” “superficial” “childish” etc by men (because this degradation reinforces the gender hierarchy) so it makes sense for young women navigating this relationship to assume that adopting more masculine traits/features will save them from this treatment (it will not, because again, society will not take kindly to you stepping outside your gendered role), i swear to god a lot of discourse on this subject is just shit like “masculine women have it easier than feminine women” which is just blatantly ignoring reality. the reality of millions of women including but not limited to butch lesbians, black women who have been degendered due to misogynoir, trans women who have to navigate a relationship to “socially acceptable femininity” that may not even match their preferred presentation… i know in my heart of hearts that a sizable portion of nominally cis straight gender-conforming women will admit that having to shave their legs and armpits and dress a certain way and eat and exercise a certain way and wear the correct amount of makeup is fucking abysmal and they probably wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t a requirement for like, being treated slightly less shitty by people. what are we doing

its the way that choice feminists will hijack any actual feminist rhetoric with “sounds like a pickme” or “wow its like you dont even want me to have fun” we are never getting out of the patriarchy
a pickme is someone who gives in and wants male approval. why would that be someone who is against the patriarchy and says women shouldnt be forced to wear makeup 24/7 or shave their entire bodies daily? why would someone who wants MALE APPROVAL say that??? someone who wants male approval would agree “i shave my entire body daily bc its feminine and society tells me its attractive and i dont analyze my choices ever”
their entire logic is so flawed and doesnt actually stand for anything. “let women do what they want!” wow. how brave of you. im never going to celebrate a woman becoming a stay at home mother, sorry. its her choice, but we need to analyze those choices.

they call women who don't wear makeup or get 20 inch nails done pickmes like yeah men LOVE when a woman doesn't practice feminity exactly 😍 pretty sure if we'd start a global no shave movement we'd be called pickmes at first lmao
The way that any girl with her own preferences that doesnt practice weird hyperfemininity gets called a “pickme” is soo strange like Sorry im not acting like a frail victorian lady disgusted by penis and sports. “Any woman that steps outside of her gender role and doesnt wanna sit in a circle weaving baskets with the other maidens is a pickme”- what you sound like

women who wear makeup will defend their choice by saying its for themselves and other women, but will call you a pickme because you dont wear makeup... for the exact same reasons...

✨ CREATING A PERSONA FOR HYPERGAMY & SOCIAL CLIMBING ✨
The votes are in and “Persona” won! Ladies, get the notebooks out. Class is in session. And this is gonna be a long one.
Be honest with me: Are you currently your ideal woman? The majority of you will probably answer honestly and say no. And there’s nothing wrong with admitting that. The harsh reality is most women on their hypergamous journey aren’t even close to being the ideal woman they aspire to be. Hell, the average woman (hypergamous or not) will probably live her life never being able to become that woman, if we’re being completely honest here.
I believe every hypergamous woman should create and adopt a persona. You are who you believe to be. When I was younger, my teachers and parents told me I was academically gifted. So guess what? I believed the same! That pushed me to work even harder in school. Same concept applies here. You are who you believe to be. A persona isn’t a “fake” version of you. It is you. Your ideal person. It is malleable, so it can change at anytime. Just like you changed throughout your life.
STEP 0 - WHY YOU SHOULD ADOPT A PERSONA
✨Not Everyone Will Win the Birth Lottery. But that doesn’t mean you can’t rewrite your past, and repave your future path. Let’s face it: some of you were born into bad circumstances; abusive families, poverty, toxic relationships, obstacles and barriers, etc. And some of you are living lives currently that you aren’t satisfied with: stressful job, health issues, bad environment, *insert sob story here*, blah, blah, blah, woe is me! But should your current and past conditions get in the way of your hypergamous journey? No! Absolutely not.
✨You Can’t Be the Same Basic B*tch Forever. Okay b*tch, when you were being “true to yourself” in the past, look where it got you. Probably in a less than favorable situation. Congratulations for being an authentic basic b*tch! 🥳😊
Ladies, change is necessary. When you started your hypergamous journey, you underwent a change. Are you saying your hypergamous self is fake? Of course it isn’t! It’s still you, just an “elevated you”. One that is more aware and knows what she wants.
✨ Most People Don’t Even Know Who TF They Are. It’s sad, but true. Most people are lost and suppressing their true desires and personality. I’m here encouraging you ladies to create your ideal persona and to become this woman. Because this woman is who you are deep inside, who you want to be. Stop hiding her! Create her, and become her! As long as this person isn’t harming anyone, there is no reason you shouldn’t chase your dream self.
STEP 1 - CHOOSE & CREATE YOUR PERSONA
This is the fun part ladies! Time to choose and create your new persona!
✨ What Kind of Woman Do You Aspire to Be? Have fun with this ladies! What kind of woman have you always dreamt of becoming? Is she wildly intelligent and beautiful? Or perhaps she has a heart of gold and is adored by all? Nothing is off limits. This is you.
For those of you who are truly struggling, below I have included a few examples of common personas. If you don’t know where to begin, choose one as the “foundation” and build on it. Make it your own!
*Disclaimer: Anyone that I mentioned/included below is simply for inspiration. Not all of these women are hypergamous. This is just for inspiration*
1. The Socialite/ The “It” Girl: This is the girl that everyone knows. She’s always at a party with a glass of champagne, wearing the latest styles, and living the BEST life. She’s glamorously unattainable and few have access to her, but somehow she’s a part of every social circle.
Inspiration: Jamie Chua (https://www.instagram.com/ec24m/)
2. The Traveler: This is the girl that travels constantly. Whether it’s across the globe or to a different state/town, she’s always on the go! No one seems to know how she funds her lifestyle because she always appears to be traveling and never working. Her pictures are always on point and high quality, with a combination of bikini pictures, relaxing scenery, exotic foods, and endless hotels.
Inspiration: Jennifer Tuffen (https://www.instagram.com/izkiz/)
3. The Influencer: Think of the ultimate Instagram Baddie; perfect body (usually because of surgery), full lips, carefully applied makeup, nails always done, hair on point. She is sponsored by all the clothes brands, and lives lavishly. She’s always out at a restaurant and traveling. Typically dresses in more revealing clothes/lots of bikinis. What differentiates her from the Socialite? The degree of elegance and class. While the Socialite gives you an “heiress” vibe, the Influencer is more on the “flashy celebrity” side.
Inspiration: Kaylar Will (https://www.instagram.com/kaylarwill/)
4. Femme Fatale: She rarely posts on social media, but when she does, it only makes you question her existence more. This girl is beautifully sensual, and her social media only reveals bits and pieces of her life. She is an entire mystery, no one knows about her private life. One day she’ll be flying from London, the next she’ll be visiting an art gallery She’ll sometimes post images of gifted roses with poetry captions. She oozes seduction and dark mystery.
Inspiration: Dita Von Teese (https://www.instagram.com/ditavonteese) Now I thought long and hard about who to choose for this one, and if you take a moment to look at Dita’s IG account, you will understand why. You will notice that the ONLY thing she posts about is her clothes/lingerie brand or things relating to business. She reveals nothing about her personal life. Every post is promotion about her business. In fact, the last time she posted something about her “life” was on October 8th when she posted her CAT modeling another designer’s scarf. She’s a very discreet woman, and it works in her favor.
5. Girl Next Door: You know that basic b*tch that’s SUPER popular for no reason? This is her. From her Starbucks to her Tiktoks, she’s just your average girl living her life. In a way, she isn’t a threat because she seems approachable, relatable, and friendly enough through social media. Something about her aspires others that they can achieve a similar lifestyle. She’s terribly basic, but somehow, it works.
Inspiration: Loren Gray (https://www.instagram.com/loren/)
6. Exotica: *This persona is best suited for women of color* She is exotically beautiful and unique. She is a trendsetter, not a follower. She has an air of heightened sexuality, with a touch of grounded-spirituality. Something about her is wild and untamed, and she oozes excitement and adventure.
Inspiration: Monica Leon, or “Danger”. Now if you’re in my generation, you may remember the reality show “For the Love of Ray J” (which was ghetto btw💀). To this day, one girl that I will NEVER forget on that show, was “Danger”, the girl with the tiger tattoo on her face and that NO ONE liked, but Ray J was obsessed with. Although she no longer is on Instagram (and has since legally changed her name), I still believe she naturally embodied that exotic and mysterious woman persona. I recommend watching the show for free on Youtube just to observe her (and only her because the other women were pickme’s 💀)
7. The Luxurious Diamond: This woman is the epitome of class and elegance. She exudes femininity and grace, and holds an air of mystery by only showing us bits and pieces of her life. What we see is soft luxuries, wineries, beautiful clothes/scenery, and a life of comfort. She balances a mature, elegant, ladylike presence, with subtle girly-youthfulness.
Inspiration: Г-жа Анисимова https://www.instagram.com/creme_de.la_femme/
✨How Does She Look Like? From her hair to how she wears her makeup, be able to create a vivid description of her appearance. Being able to do this will show you where to work on with your current appearance.
✨Personality We all have traits about ourselves that we don’t like. This is your chance to identify your traits that you love and maximize them, while also working on the aspects of your personality that are a bit more problematic.
It’s important to recognize that some “negative” traits are not really negative. Society just shames us for them. For example, “The Socialite” persona may be polite, but that doesn’t mean she’s super open and friendly with everyone. Not everyone is her friend, and she is naturally unattainable. So why would she be super friendly to everyone? Some may call her “standoffish”, but I call it “selective”.
✨Past Self? Not a Problem. So let’s say you had a less than perfect childhood and endured a lot of trauma. Not a problem, just reinvent your past! Now I’m not saying to straight up lie and make up a crazy story about how you grew up with billionaire parents and traveled the globe. I’m saying adopt a realistic story that’ll help you on your journey.
For example, if your date were to ask about your past, instead of telling him how tragic your childhood was and how you were homeless and abused by your parents, and no longer have a relationship with them, you can say: “I moved around a lot as a child (“homelessness”), so I really enjoyed being able to interact with a lot of different people (make the negative seem positive). My parents still move around a lot, so it’s hard for us to meet (explains why you aren’t in contact with your parents).
Reword and reframe, ladies. Not everyone needs to know everything.
STEP 2 - BRING HER TO LIFE
✨Remove. You cannot embrace your new persona, your new IDENTITY, if you are still stuck in the past. And that includes past connections that do not serve you. Some of your old friends (college friends, childhood friends, etc.) are not meant to accompany you on this journey. And that’s OKAY. Same with other toxic relationships in your life, family included. You will have to decide who to keep, and who to distance yourself from.
✨ Social Media! I’ve mentioned this in an earlier post, but social media is the easiest way for you to push your new persona. You control the content that goes on your social media, so even if you haven’t fully embodied your new persona, you can sure as hell fake it on social media.
- Unless your persona is a socialite/influencer type, avoid posting too often. - Be consistent; if you retouch your images, make sure its consistent with all your photos. - Be mindful of what people tag you in/post about you. You know that “friend” who always posts the ugliest pictures of you? Yeah. They’re not your friend, hun.
✨Dress. The. Part. Okay, sis. You can have the personality down perfectly, but if the look doesn’t match, no one will buy it. Your look is the first thing people notice, so invest in it. It doesn’t cost a lot, especially with fast fashion sites like Shein that sells clothes for $5. Just be able to keep up the appearance.
✨ Immerse Yourself in the Environment. Looking the part and having the right personality is not enough, ladies! It wouldn’t make sense for you to be a “Socialite” sharing pictures of you eating at Red Lobster and Olive Garden every night. It wouldn’t make sense for the “Traveler” persona to share only bathroom selfies in her apartment. You have to live like the woman you aspire to be, and that includes placing yourself in those environments.
If you are not in the place financially to do so, learn to project the image without spending money. Ex: If you can’t afford to go to Hawaii, go to your local beach and take bomb ass pictures. Don’t tag the location. People will automatically see a beach in your picture and assume you are on vacation traveling. Get creative, ladies.
✨You Owe Them Nothing. Ladies! Remember you don’t owe anyone anything. Not an explanation, not your time, nothing. So if you are living this new persona and people are asking questions you don’t want to answer: don’t. This is your life.
STEP 3 - YOUR PERSONA WHILE DATING HYPERGAMOUSLY & SOCIAL CLIMBING
So now that you have created your ideal persona, and taken the steps to incorporate it into your life, how can you use your newfound persona to aid you on your hypergamous journey and while social climbing?
✨Infiltrate New Circles. Your persona should be someone exciting and enticing. People love befriending people who are happy and adventurous. Use your persona to befriend others and enter new social circles. You can do this through: - Social media; follow similar accounts to yours and interact with them. - Activities related to your persona; Let’s say you adopted the “The Luxurious Diamond” persona and started visiting wineries. You may notice when you go that there are regulars; identify the regulars and use your common interest of wine to strike a conversation. -Interest groups; join clubs/groups that help you reach your goals. For example, “The Traveler” may have always wanted to travel to Bali, but didn’t want to go alone. She joins a travel group to meet other likeminded inviduals and meets a travel buddy. This person ends up introducing her to others who also enjoy traveling.
✨ Be a Chameleon. You should never be set on just one persona. Like I said earlier, your persona should always be malleable. You should be able to change yourself to your benefit, and always be open to expansion. When it comes to dating, a man may “want” a certain type of woman, but the secret is that most men just want a woman who is open to possibilities. I remember a man who used to be on my roster who loved music. This man was always insisting on taking me to operas and symphonies. And he too was a musician (I really don’t like dating musicians, but that’s a topic for another day), so whenever he was performing he would have me sitting in the box so I’d have an “undisturbed” experience. Now ladies, I’m not into music AT ALL. But I was open and willing, and guess what? The man adored it, and he adored me even more! He spoiled me like crazy and would serenade me with music he wrote about me because I was his “muse”. Although I ended up ghosting him, I definitely appreciate a good opera now!
✨Be Larger than Life to Entice. The attractive part about these personas is the fact that it feels almost fake. The image that is portrayed is almost mythical, like something out of a fantasy. You can’t believe this girl is traveling so much, or you can’t believe this girl still has a social life in the middle of a pandemic! It’s unbelievable, but that’s what makes us so intrigued. Men especially love fantasy. That’s why many men have a “dream girl”, a woman that embodies their physical and emotional fantasies. They love the impossible. It’s also important to remember that you are always being watched. People see you, whether in person or on social media, and when they see someone or something more interesting than their mundane life, curiosity will get the best of them. They’ll be drawn to you and want to know you.
✨ The Persona Advantage. Creating a persona is supposed to help your journey. The purpose is to reinvent yourself into someone who will help you better navigate your hypergamous life. For example, if you are trying to get into more exclusive, affluent circles, creating a persona who is skilled in social and dining etiquette would be more beneficial than a persona that’s an Instagram Influencer. Being an Instagram Baddie that wears Fashion Nova won’t help you at a Charity Gala. So be sure to think of what you desire in life to shape yourself into that. Don’t just become someone who won’t get you to where you want to be.
This post will definitely have a Part 2 in the future, but in conclusion: You can be whoever you want to be as long as you play the role. Be an actress in your own life, and live the life you desire.
Well ladies, I’ll be away for Valentine’s day weekend. Wishing you all a wonderful and safe weekend ❤️ Lots of love.
