Home ยป The Black Baron: Beauty is Not a Crime

without comments

It’s funny how when you read something, it starts getting zeitgeisty. Observation bias, I know.

The Baron Black of Crossharbour admonishes the parasites: Don’t hate people because they’re beautiful.

Carla Bruni Sarkozy and Princess Letizia of Spain are guilty of the crime of making others feel uncomfortable, but — and here’s the hard thing for parasites to understand — that’s not actually a crime.

These are not Stepford Wives. If Canadian feminism clings in a bear hug to humourless, joyless, anti-glam spartanism, it will fizzle, deservedly.

I’ve always supported Paris Hilton for largely the same reason. People who criticize her business success because she’s pretty and uses sex to sell are oppressing women. How puritanism is supposed to liberate people entirely escapes me.

The parasites, the haters, try to close off every avenue of success by calling it immoral in order to assuage their own failings. When you complain about women being too pretty for feminism* you reveal more about your own insecurities than anything else.

* Warning: The linked article is extremely ridiculous.
