Right, so there's this awful "discussion" that keeps popping up on my Tumblr dash, started by a lady posting a picture of herself holding a razor saying "you see this? it’s called a razor. if you’re a girl, USE IT." and more about how women who don't shave are gross feminazis etc., etc., and as of now it has 2342 notes, most of which seems to be girls apologetically posting things like "Well personally I have to [shave/not shave] because of [this or that specific reason], otherwise I would totally [do the opposite], yeah" and it's like they're vaguely ashamed of what they're doing or not doing in the shaving department, whatever side they seem to be on.

That is, there's a lot of heated arguing going on too, "YOU SHOULD SHAVE YOU SMELLY FEMINAZI!", "YOU SHOULDN'T SHAVE, YOU'RE SUPPORTING THE PATRIARCHY!"

I'm posting my contribution to the debate here (with a few adjustments because I was really tired when I wrote it and my grammar was less than stellar), just because for once I feel I managed to say what I felt:

Feministic ideals )

There's a lot of gray areas in socio-gender related subjects, I just didn't know shaving was one of them.
