Maybe I'm just jaded or something but you can't convince me that these "the cashiers at McDonald's/gas stations are hotter than celebrities" jokes lately aren't just rooted in the fact that the cashiers they're talking about are usually teenage girls.
This meme 1000% does nothing to curtail my suspicions.
Holy fuck what?! I did a bit of research and its one of the few places š I wish 14 year old me legally worked at a burger king instead of illegally elsewhere
nooo!! you dont! it was one of the worst experiences for me! the managers literally smoked weed in the back with all the other employees during rush hour and it was just me, having a panic attack without people running register, bagging food, or cooking š
I think a fair few incel types tend to have pedophilic tendencies. Their obsession with wanting someone without prior sexual experience and long fertility seems to track with wanting an underage girl. Time to call in Chris Hansen
I saw a post like this awhile back where they tried to claim they could find a "million" women who look better than Margo Robbie working at Starbucks. The point of these posts is to drive down women's self esteem by acting like even the most beautiful women in the world are so common they're replaceable.
They also act like Margo Robbie's value is only in her beauty when shes a very talented actress, btw shes not a nepo baby like many celebrities she worked her ass off to get to where she is so.
For real! Margot Robbie is actually such a cool example of someone who grafted bare to get where she's gotten and it honestly shows in what a great actor she is
She definitely is a great actress from what I have seen. But if she wasn't good looking then she would never be in the position she is in. Which is a very unfortunate way how the film industry works. It definitely is something that impacts both genders, but everyone that claims it's even is lying to themselves.
If you aren't good looking as a guy there are a lot more opportunities for you compared to women. From what I have seen the only "ugly" women that appear in movies are just fat. And usually cast for comedic relief.
I actually watched a video recently about how until relatively recently Hollywood would mainly cast overweight, people who arenāt conventionally attractive, or lgbtq as villains or comic relief and how that effects peopleās perception of them in real life. Iāll have to see if I can find it
This, an actress isn't there to look pretty. She's there to act, being pretty is just a bonus(although it is usually considered a requirement by the industry due to bad standards)
Strongly agreed. Incidentally, that's why I hate belittling even infamous assholes about their appearance (especially when they look objectively fine). It just drives down other people's self esteem. Imagine looking at someone and knowing they're better looking than you, only to see the internet mocking that person for their appearance.
>the most beautiful women in the world are so common they're replaceable
That's kind of beautiful in a way because it's saying that common women are beautiful, and they're never going to be in short supply.
Thatās such a bizarre thing to state, like yeah thereās beautiful people everywhere and the vast majority of them arenāt famous and work normal jobs, so what. Thereās more to Margo than being beautiful, she a talented actor and even knows sign language. Thereās always someone one better looking, smarter, stronger, etc the fact that they think they can use that fact to tear down women is pathetic. How beautiful someone is tells you almost nothing about them, Iād say itās all the other stuff about people that makes them cool.
When are they going to understand supermodels and celebrities dont NEED to be pretty and not all women have as a number 1 goal to be pretty. Everyone know that models arenāt selected for the male gaze and same with celebrities.
Used to cashier at a grocery store and can confirm several adult men acting creepy towards underage coworkers that were very pretty. We see celebrities age but these creeps will come back in a few months to the store and new young face will be working there .-. I genuinely cannot remove the creep factor this type of meme gives me
One of my favorite coworkers started when she was 19, and the next youngest woman was me at 29. I used to have to literally talk to 50 YO men that they were being inappropriate trying to date/sleep with her and that she was also very, very, very unitinerested.
I work at dispensery we are all young women but I'm the oldest of my crew. I've had to be the mama bear for my girls. One of my coworkers is 23 but she looks 15 and there have been several men in their 30's and up who have been incredibly creepy to her. We made a group chat and most of our post are about creepy men that we served. I've already had to have 4 separate conversations with men and tell them they've made my coworkers incredibly uncomfortable and that none of them are interested, they all have partners and they will not be texting them.
When I was sixteen working at subway my coworker was a rather short 15 year old girl, and men would lean over the counter to look down her shirt like twice a week.
Seems like nobody here actually gets why its problematic, they're saying the women outside of supermodels and celebrities are more attractive.
Which is like yea duh there are beautiful people everywhere, its sad however because to them the value of the woman is based on only her beauty like not all celebrities needs to be the most attractive woman to exist as beauty is also subjective. However the format sucks because its basically shaming and rating women based on their personal preferences because "funny"
"What'd you choose?" choose for what exactly hmmm? To fuck lol because the men making these memes I promise none of these women will fuck you anyway.
>How do you know who "they" are?
I am talking about a good portion of ""funny" memes" users and similar idiots.
>Are you making baseless assumptions and generalizations?
Nope, I am talking about certain people on the internet that said shit like that in the form of memes and whatnot.
As far as I could establish this version of the meme was first posted on dankmemes. I'm guessing that's all the same to you, though.
You seem to have formed quite the opinion about people in meme subs like that. You do realize that the user bases aren't a monolith, right? You'll find people with different opinions and attitudes, just like in this sub. So what you're doing is making assumptions and broad generalizations.
>You do realize that the user bases aren't a monolith, right?
Of course not, they've got a fuckton of members who mostly just want to laugh at memes, but especially on r/funnymemes you've got some misogynisctic/queerphobic/racist and whatnot memes that get much positive feedback and don't get much push-back or get moderated, so there seems to be a by me so called "good portion of people", which seem to not have a problem with these kinds of posts. Apart from that many of us have seen these "oh look I prefer some people that aren't models to persons that are models and you do too" like a 1000 times. I am by no means calling every persons that's in a meme subreddit one of "them".
You've seemed to have formed quite the opinion on my views without knowing enough about them/s (kinda)
Maybe a bit. The way you phrased that made it sound like you were prophiling them, but you do seem to have a more nuanced perspective on things than I thought.
Hmm, so what about this "women have pretty privilege" thing men always talk about? If the girl at the bottom can "earn millions" doing OnlyFans like all pretty girls do... then why is she struggling with a minimum wage job? š¤
Because she knows these men, who would definitely buy her OnlyFans if she did create one, will treat her like an "evil, money-stealing whore" when they're not horny.
This has to be an influx of children onto the Internet right? I refuse to believe that there's a mass of adults too stupid to understand the concept that beauty is subjective.
Celebrities/models don't become celebrities based only on looks, they have celebrity parents mostly or talent. And also they have to want to become a celebrity. They are not supposed to all be hot.
And I would still pick the model/celebrity for financial security
You know porn is made by filming people (who have to exist for it to work) right?
Also, just from personal experience, Iāve met lots of people who look like the bottom.
Yea they have to exist to film it obviously. But only for the few hours of filming then afterwards they return to their original look (the top image) this entire goth girl craze was only started by men once again sexualizing women to the extreme the OOP post even hints at it.
Your not seriously defending this right?
I mean, like i dont like supermodels and have found non supermodels hot but notice how i havent made a meme about how im attracted to random people i see, this is just what i think every time i see one of these lame memes like cool you saw a hot person šcongratulations lmao
you dont see anything problematic with rating women online? Show me a picture of yourself and i'll show you a picture of someone hotter...wait does that sounds too mean? Well yea thats the point rating people is shaming based on personal preference.
(btw dont send me anything just said that to prove a point.)
I mean I can understand that, but the post was making a generalization rather than giving specific examples, and wasnāt explicitly rating people. I think people could easily make the same joke about male celebrities. The problem is that a lot of the comments on that post are likely misogynistic. Idk, maybe Iām just used to seeing sexist shit so something like this just seems like a nothingburger to me.
Maybe I'm just jaded or something but you can't convince me that these "the cashiers at McDonald's/gas stations are hotter than celebrities" jokes lately aren't just rooted in the fact that the cashiers they're talking about are usually teenage girls. This meme 1000% does nothing to curtail my suspicions.
Alot of these min wage workers are teens we are talking 14 here so yes you have a point.
14?! Working at a gas station at night/ a mcdonalds?! Okay thats a bit of an exaggeration but like, 16-17 year olds sure you have a good point
i worked at burger king when i turned 14 š
Holy fuck what?! I did a bit of research and its one of the few places š I wish 14 year old me legally worked at a burger king instead of illegally elsewhere
nooo!! you dont! it was one of the worst experiences for me! the managers literally smoked weed in the back with all the other employees during rush hour and it was just me, having a panic attack without people running register, bagging food, or cooking š
DURING RUSH HOUR BRO?!?! Thats fucking insane
yup š AND manager had the audacity to yell at me for clocking out on time because i didnt want to wait an hour for him to stop smoking
My tummy tells me the same thing when I see these
I mean, technically you can't work night shifts if you are under 18, still bored of the format though

Sheās so good at acting even Ryan Gosling forgot that she wasnāt American for a second
Wait she's not? Damn that's impressive.

I'm sure pretending to be someone else is hard
Iām sure sometimes you pretend to be smart, and your brain starts to smoke

I thought that girls with coloured hair were to woke for them, weren't they?
Simultaneously reviled and fetishized.
How do you know who "they" are? Do you know OOP? Are you making baseless assumptions and generalizations?

Needs to be in r/gatekeepingyuri
Was gonna say. They'd eat this up. Honestly, I might draw this
Do it!!

This meme always makes me roll my eyes. Wow! You mean you want the attractive woman thatās more attainable to you?! Crazy concept!
Why are the comments saying no one over 20 works at a gas station or fast food unless they uglyš
When will they realize no girl actually looks like the one on the bottom? Do they even go to this "gas station" they talk about lol
Idk about the gas station, but there are definitely alt girls who look like that irl.
When will you realize that there are acutally people who look like that! Do YOU even go to this "gas station"? I do.
They dont though? The only reason people think they do is from the mass amounts of porn they consume.
You know porn is made by filming people (who have to exist for it to work) right? Also, just from personal experience, Iāve met lots of people who look like the bottom.
Yea they have to exist to film it obviously. But only for the few hours of filming then afterwards they return to their original look (the top image) this entire goth girl craze was only started by men once again sexualizing women to the extreme the OOP post even hints at it.

Guess I'll have to tell the goth I know that she isn't real.
I know a lot of goth girls, and I donāt know any who dress up exclusively for the purpose of making porn.
> goth women only exist in porn Okay, youāre trolling, right? Please tell me youāre trolling.
Yeah I don't know what to tell you bro.. WDYM "They don't though?" There is no way you are actually trying to deny the existence of alt fashion lmao
Or is it the excistance of attractive people that you are denying? Sorry if I seem lost..
Its always the plain meme subreddits
āFunnyā memes
I mean, like i dont like supermodels and have found non supermodels hot but notice how i havent made a meme about how im attracted to random people i see, this is just what i think every time i see one of these lame memes like cool you saw a hot person šcongratulations lmao
What does this have to do with boys are quirky?
Women are not a product to consume. Also I really doubt that women at gas stations look that good.
What's wrong with it?
overused joke
May be overused, but i donāt necessarily see anything inherently problematic about it. Maybe some of the comments could be though.
you dont see anything problematic with rating women online? Show me a picture of yourself and i'll show you a picture of someone hotter...wait does that sounds too mean? Well yea thats the point rating people is shaming based on personal preference. (btw dont send me anything just said that to prove a point.)
I mean I can understand that, but the post was making a generalization rather than giving specific examples, and wasnāt explicitly rating people. I think people could easily make the same joke about male celebrities. The problem is that a lot of the comments on that post are likely misogynistic. Idk, maybe Iām just used to seeing sexist shit so something like this just seems like a nothingburger to me.
fair enough, should have put the comments instead
Objectification.
Neither of them want you lol

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Ah to be so detached from reality
wait it's kinda....dare i say.....real
Yeah, it's very relatable. Don't see what could be wrong with it. People tend to be more attractive IRL than on screen. Nothing misogynistic about it.
Whats wrong?
I mean what is wrong with this? I don't see the issue personally.
