PLUS SIZE ASIANS EXIST

Michelle Elman

As you all know I’ve been talking about the absence of Asians in adverts, campaigns and fashion in general so @lindablacker and I decided to team up on a little passion project. Look at how incredible these women look!

Here’s to showing them what they are missing 💪🏽

Despite the absence in the media, asian is actually the largest ethnic minority in the U.K.

Asians deserve to be represented.

Asians deserve to be seen.

And all Asians aren’t the stereotype of being small and petite.

Being Asian is not one look.

Being Asian is not one culture.

Whilst even this shoot isn’t perfect representation, it shows just a small sample of the diversity within Asia. #AsianRepresentation

Thank you to all the wonderful women taking part and being my stunning models @nesslala @bishamberdas @saalene @kat_v_henry @minakumari.uk @simksandhu95

This was such a personal project and I couldn’t have done it without @lindablacker. She came up with the idea when I was talking about asian representation earlier in the year and I wouldn’t trust anyone else to do it. She has always placed diversity at the forefront of her shoots and her talent is remarkable. This entire concept was her doing and I’m so grateful for everything you did to make this a reality! Thank you also to @umberghauri and @hannah.shaikhup for the incredible makeup! It felt so complete to have the makeup artists also be Asian. We need just as much diversity behind the scenes on shoots as well! x

OF COURSE it's zoomies who invent '-cores' like this for every single thing they like, just like personality traits become 'genders'

i don't feel nostalgic for this and it screams zoomie to me so i shudder at it.

no.

this, alongside the 'traditional femininity distilled into the cheapest fast fashion tier otome/onee kei fashion from 2011' that these zoomies like is the plague. Japan is EXTREMELY conservative and this is reflected in the 'cutesy' 'girly' fashions that come out of there, seeing zoomies enthusiastically adopt this stuff...as another 'aesthetic' to determine their value as women/girls with....

A survey of female seniors in 561 Japanese universities in 1992 found women expected and didn’t mind sexism at work. 91% said they don’t mind being treated as “office flowers” and 25% considered that to be a woman’s role (Thornton, 1992). This shows how strong the male-dominated view remained.

[...]

Citing a Dr. Takasu (author of The Magnetism of the Heart—Becoming a Cute Woman: Mesmer Explains the 5 Rules for Becoming a Good Woman), McVeigh concludes that there are three major characteristics of cuteness: 1) having features of an infant; 2) arousing a protective instinct in others; and 3) having the desire to be liked (139). McVeigh also provides lists of associations Japanese people have with cuteness, both conceptual (“powerlessness, controllable, controlled, weakness, femininity, cheerfulness and youthfulness”) and concrete (“females, bright colors [especially pink], infants, children, small size and toys”) (142).

[…] As McVeigh points out, in Japanese culture it is generally accepted that “[b]y being cute, women are able to occupy their ‘proper place’” (145). This is thus, then, a trend that is easily incorporated into mainstream culture because of what it says about women. As Joanne Finkelstein, in “Chic Theory,” writes, fashion has a disciplinary power and “coerces the body to shape and rearrange itself in accordance with ever-shifting social expectations.” Young women who dress as children thus run the risk of being shaped into weak, childlike women.

On the other hand, this style may function as an indictment of just this problem, dramatizing through fashion the negative effects of this treatment of women in Japanese culture. As several commentators have pointed out, Japanese attitudes toward dress have traditionally been much more functional and utilitarian than American attitudes. If clothes can answer the question “who am I?”, Donald Richie states, “[t]he Japanese response to this is: ‘I am what I appear to be; I am the function that I am dressed for’” (49). Young women’s cuteness may then be read as a statement about the functions that they are allowed to engage in.

this shit is coming out of tiktok, of course. if the degree of 'extreme' or audacity that this fashion can have is determined by zoomies, then all the porn adjacent shit i see in the explore page is VERY concerning.

update on what's happening in Iran:

Based on the news you have heard that they 'abolished' the mortality police.

but today when I woke up and checked the new, 2 of the famous actresses who took their hijab off yesterday, Elnaz Shakerdoost and Shaghaiegh Dehghan have been summoned by the police.

an amusement park was closed permanently (for now) cause one of the female workers wasn't wearing hijab.

they are lying. they just abolished the mortality police to calm the protests, they don't care about women now as they didn't care all these damn 43 years.

DON'T STOP TALKING ABOUT IRAN. OUR ONLY PROBLEM IS NOT THE FORCED HIJAB; THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC NEEDS TO GO.

Y'know what? As we leave queer pride month into disability pride month (which I usually see less posts for) and as someone who is both, shout-outs to all the cis and het people who are Black, Indigenous, AAPI, Muslim, immigrants, or disabled, and don't get appreciation during or outside of your months (if you even have any) or days of remembrance. People need more solidarity with those not like them, and often leave them out of mind when it's not their specific time to have a brief spotlight or amplifier.

I think queer people having walls up against cis and het people automatically shuts them out from a large part of the human population who are just like them, and face equal or worse marginalization. Now is especially time to remember that turning your back on others for not being like you, since in the US the Supreme Court is trying to strip away rights of all of us presently, and queer people have a lot more in common with you and vice versa even if intercommunity relations feel tense or unbridgeable. I hope y'all stay safe and focus on yourself too this month and afterwards, with the way things are heading.

SEOUL — When Kim Ju-hee was at nursing school, her instructor told the class that “a nurse’s pretty face is part of the service that she provides,” which even for a woman from the conservative Korean city of Daegu was a bit hard to take.

Once Kim began working, she experienced constant sexual harassment and discrimination, prompting her to seek out the support of other women undergoing similar experiences. The 27-year-old then began to fight back, taking on night shifts so that she could be an activist by day, organizing protests against misogyny.

But she and other female activists in South Korea face an uphill battle, especially with a rising male “anti-feminist” movement, whose members stage counter-protests mocking and threatening the women — even as they are increasingly being courted by politicians.

Hello guys. I hope you've known that based on the flag on my bio I'm an Iranian person. You probably know what's been happening; the government been restricting our access to the internet to silence our voices but THIS TIME WE WILL NOT BE SILENT.

Mahsa Amini was a 22 yearold woman who was murdered by the 'mortality police' for not having appropriate hijab.

the government denies the fact that she was murdered BUT DON'T LISTEN TO THE GOVERNMENT. LISTEN TO IRANIAN PEOPLE.

Our country is being ruled by terrorists such as Khamenei who's our 'leader' and Raeesi who's the president. THEY'RE BOTH TERRORISTS.

please be the voice of Iranian people.our only problem is not the forced hijab and dress code, there's a lot more than that.

WE DON'T WANT THIS GOVERNMENT AT ALL!!

Asian yellow female monkey loves BBC

And the yellow female monkey hates the yellow male monkey.

So the yellow female monkeys live for the BBC and go to the gym and train for the BBC.

yes. The yellow male monkey can't fuck in the pussy.

Pray to God that the next time you are born, you will be a BBC instead of a yellow male monkey.

We only think of the yellow male monkey as a tool to humiliate him.

Now say, "I'm a loser yellow male monkey who jerks small dicks pathetically and watches yellow female monkeys get fucked by the BBC."

You are slaves to the new world, so give up quickly.

LOSER🤣
