The narrative is that women are just preaching body positivity to themselves and each other. We are told it is strictly a journey of internal self love and a way to accept features that are objectively unattractive without feeling miserable about them and other things like lack of respect decence from the world ect ect. If that was actually the truth the movement would be a quiet and personal thing. Instead it is overwhelmingly loud outward facing and constantly combative. Really not much different from MTGOW
If you are truly secure in yourself you do not need to scream at the world to validate you. You do not need to demand that everyone else adjusts their preferences to accommodate your self esteem. The issue is this is not about internal peace. They do not just want to feel okay in their own skin. They want the pretty privilege experience and they are angry they do not have access to it.
There is an entirely different reality that exists for highly attractive women. They get the luxury treatment and unlimited dating options. Men go out of their way to invest time and money into them and society extends a general social grace to them. The only thing that separates who gets to live in that tier and who does not,
is male validation. That is the ultimate gatekeeper to those experiences. Women who do not naturally trigger that validation are hyper aware of what they are missing out on. They see other women getting trips paid for getting their bills handled and getting swept off their feet by men who have a lot of options.
Instead of accepting that they do not meet the uncompromising prerequisites of the dating market the movement actively tries to berate the world into changing what it finds attractive. We see this all the time with the shaming tactics.
"this is what an average NATURAL woman looks like, cellulite, stretch marks, love handles" ect ect
"PORN is the problem"
"they see IG models and thats becomes their standard"
theres always some variation of these posts. These women are not actually concerned about a mans psychological security. They are just trying to shame men into expanding the boundaries of their physical attraction.
They want the results of having high physical capital without actually possessing the capital itself. It is an organized attempt to negotiate attraction so they can get included in a lifestyle they are currently locked out of. They want to be taken on expensive dates and have luxury experiences provided by men who typically only date highly attractive women. You cannot debate or shame a guy into getting a visceral biological reaction. Attraction is not moral or fair.
When that inevitably fails the frustration gets projected outward. The tiktoks posts blaming patriarchal societal standards and toxic media conditioning. It is much easier to blame a systemic structure than to accept that the world does not inherently value what is not beautiful just because you demand it to. They convince themselves that men have been brainwashed by the media to only like certain women completely ignoring evolutionary biology.
For a large portion of these women it was never actually about being okay with themselves. It is about demanding that the world specifically men with resources value them at a premium rate. They want to play the role of the prize while trying to rewrite the rules of the game to suit their own hands. You cannot berate the world into finding you attractive. You cannot shame men into giving you the pretty woman experience. None of it works that way and pretending otherwise is just mass delusion.
