i appreciate My Chemical Romance song titles better if i put “Mom” at the end of them
eg.
“It’s Not a Fashion Statement, It’s a Fucking Deathwish, Mom”
“I Never Told You What I Do for a Living, Mom”
“This Is How I Disappear, Mom”
Clueless mom: “Okay, sweetie. Don’t forget your jacket.”
Feminist historians have argued that the corset was deeply implicated in the nineteenth-century construction of a “submissive”, “masochistic” feminine ideal. Indeed, the corset has been described as a “quintessentially Victorian” garment, because of its role in creating and policing middle-class femininity. Although plausible, this thesis is ultimately unconvincing. Men were not responsible for forcing women to wear corsets. On the contrary, a number of powerful male authority figures, including many doctors, opposed corsetry. So did a vocal minority of dress reformers of both sexes, who wondered why the majority of women persisted in wearing corsets. …
The triumph of corsetry occurred not because Victorian women were more oppressed or masochistic than their predecessors, but because the Industrial Revolution and the democratization of fashion gave more women access to corsets. … The history of the corset from the end of the French Revolution to the First World War is not only about “fashioning the bourgeoisie”, since corsetry, like fashion in general, was rapidly becoming a mass phenomenon.
annie = red hair = irish = prejudice against irish american immigrants that was rampant at the time annie originally was created
annie = black = prejudice against black people in this country today, currently, right now
annie’s casting has always been a statement about prejudice in this country. to have her be red haired and white today would be to go against the original intention of her creation.
tumblr is pretty cool because no matter what you choose to blog about (whether it be jokes, a fandom, fashion, or something else) someone out there will always explicitly hate you for it with mad intensity
hades isn’t a badass. hades named his three-headed-guard-of-the-underworld-dog spot. hades whispers to his flowers to make them grow. hades grows fruit. there’s no sun in the underworld.
hades isn’t a badass. stop saying this false thing
no one wants to admit they shop at hot topic but we all do
I love Hot Topic and I buy all my clothes from there. For example today I was wearing a black corset with matching lace around it and a black leather miniskirt, pink fishnets and black combat boots. I was wearing black lipstick, white foundation, black eyeliner and red eye shadow. I was walking outside Hogwarts. It was snowing and raining so there was no sun, which I was very happy about. A lot of preps stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.
tuxedo mask has an attack in the manga called “tuxedo la smoking bomber” which sounds kinda cool at first but then you realise that “smoking” is french for “tuxedo” so his attack is basically “jacket the jacket jacket”
