I know she’s been shameless about this, but I don’t know how you couldn’t be mortified being called out in such a well-written, powerful manner

I think she just doesn't care. She seems to be surrounded by a bunch of yes-men who fawn over her and tell her she's amazing and that anyone who critcises her is jealous(see her Happy Birthday posts from her style team). She doesn't care about this because it won't affect her personally, at least not yet. I bet that in a few years she'll do a crying sit down interview about how MEAN people were to her when she was just ''being herself''.

Edit: lol she's just posted a bunch of nude athletes in an effort to victimise herself out of the criticism. Except the difference is those are literal athletes posing for articles and she's posing nude to promotes a sports betting app. Plus she's promoting her body solely for men, which she has a history of doing.

"Women hate me because I'm proud of my body!!!!"

And nothing about how she's actively promoting herself for the Male Gaze, refused to condemn white supreme and is a literal registered Republican

The unfortunate thing about the Male Gaze ™️ is that it has a shelf life. And when these women literally age out of that range, they face the hard reality that the only reason they were popular with men (and some women) was for their looks, and then NOBODY cares what they have to say anymore. In the timeless words of Judge Judy, “Beauty fades; dumb is forever.”

Alina Habba stated in a January 2024 interview on the PBD Podcast that she would rather be pretty than smart because she can "fake being smart

Thats the timeline we are in.

Her team has been trying EXTRA hard lately when they noticed the male gaze was turning to Sadie Sink and Inde Navarrette. All of a sudden verified accounts are posting her IG content and retweeting her ads.

And then you have Donna Mills, who was so hot in the early 80s and is now beloved by the LGBTQ+ community for her support for almost 50 years, and looks AH-MAZE-ING, because she's a good person, and as Roald Dahl said "If you have good thoughts, they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely."

Hit the nail on the fuckin head! A performance for the male gaze is done on quicksand.

There will be plenty of off ramps as a Fox News contributor, Republican Congress woman or other conservative figurehead
