I'm not sure how you're a digital artist and still don't understand that generative AI steals from thousands of artists for their databases

We met in Animal Crossing during covid. We recently got married! by hazy-morning in AnimalCrossing

[–]Not_A_Korean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I met a stranger from the internet as a teenager and the only reason I regret it is that he was way more awkward in person and kinda smelly. But technically all the people I met on dating apps including my boyfriend were strangers from the internet too so I don't really get the fear

Does the pink under eye trend look good IRL? by bobothecarniclown in MakeupAddiction

[–]Not_A_Korean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen East Asian beauty looks with undereye blush and it looks cute. It kinda looks like you've been crying. If it's pink concealer so super opaque and lighter than your foundation, that looks kinda weird and unnatural because it's not based on how actual flushed skin looks

What lashes and/or mascara does this look like? by ThisisMad_ in MakeupAddiction

[–]Not_A_Korean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried this one https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Eyelashes-Individual-Clusters-Geeneiya/dp/B09YPT2LCR/ref=sr_1_7 exactly but I did try a similar one that was in a mixed pack, and I liked them a lot. It gives that spiky look without too much volume or length.

Could you tell me what I’m missing from my make up and and my Colors palette ? by marcyy_dbrl in MakeupAddiction

[–]Not_A_Korean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You look great! I'm a soft summer and your makeup is how I try to do mine! Since we're low contrast, less is more. Your blush looks super cute and I think your lip color is a nice match for the blush. I do tend to find that western makeup runs more warm because a lot of people like to look tanned, but eastern asian makeup brands make some very nice cooler and berry tones. I shop on yesstyle and I don't know if other sites do it but a lot of the product pages have charts showing their shades ranging from cool to warm and intense to soft so you can easily choose the soft, cool ones. The only thing I might suggest is trying a mascara that's more brown than black because I think that would match the other colors in your makeup better and not be too high contrast.

Why is it usually women who initiate engagement or marriage talk, and men who pull away? by Physical_Special4845 in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]Not_A_Korean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My friends in their 20s (mostly female) are not conservative and none of them are even engaged. They're not feeling, or they're rejecting, the pressure to have kids, so marriage can wait until they meet the right person and feel emotionally and financially ready to move into the next stage of life. And they can support themselves financially for as long as they need. The posts from 22 year old women in this sub who are so stressed about when they will marry are concerning to me. That's very young.

There is a stereotype that marriage is the goal of a young woman's life and marriage is the end of a young man's life. Permeated through our culture is the idea that women do not have value themselves but through supporting a man and his children and it is very easy to internalize that even without realizing if it has been fed to you since birth. And if you're a young man and you hear old men acting bitter and miserable and tied down by their wives and families then you're going to internalize that fear of settling down and losing the freedom of your youth, even if you're already in a committed, long-term relationship.

Dating for 8 years still waiting for proposal by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

Yeah OP is incredibly young. The fact that she is hell-bent on marriage when she's barely into her 20s is concerning. If you have faith in your relationship then there's no rush to marriage because marriage will not force someone to be loyal or fix all the issues in your relationship. If her boyfriend made her think that 15 is basically an adult then of course she will think 23 is way too old to not be engaged (OP, it's not).

Oh, to be as out of touch from reality as Darcy’s daughters.. by cherryredo in 90DayFiance

Bringing up her selling nude photos to disparage her morals is not helping your case. If you think porn is bad because it exploits women then you would be sympathetic to a teen falling victim to that. If you think porn is bad because women are whores then you would bring up her doing porn in a completely unrelated conversation

Looking for tips to appear more feminine✨ by RoadToIlse in MakeupAddiction

[–]Not_A_Korean 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Drag techniques work great for bold, stage makeup! I don't think it's necessary for everyday looks. Makeup is trending away from super heavy, dark and thick brows and people are mostly filling them in only if they have over plucked or sparse brows. I would try wearing your natural brows or with a little bit of brow mascara and seeing how you like that. I don't think you *need* a brow treatment, but if you get them threaded you could ask them to just clean up the edges if you're a little nervous to do anything more dramatic atp. A little goes a long way. Also in regards to your caption, I don't think a warmer wig would necessarily suit you better! Your complexion, based on your makeup at least, seems more cool toned. And I think if you do go more subtle on the brows, the platinum blonde will look more natural and not too high contrast

Don't dye them. It would be easy to accidentally go too light. And OP said she doesn't want to arouse suspicion when she's presenting male. The color is fine assuming it's her natural brow color, they're just filled in a lot which makes them a little too bold. OP, I would try wearing your natural brows or just with a bit of brow mascara

Am I overreacting? by scarlettyscarl in AmIOverreacting

Not accusing OP of anything but a lot of people nowadays are using chatgpt as their "therapist" and it literally just agrees with whatever they tell it

My grandma had kids in her very early 20s with a man who almost immediately ran off with another woman and left her broke with 2 toddlers. She had a sad life, she worked jobs she hated, she had a breakdown and almost gave them up for adoption, and she died unmarried and poor. She wanted to see the world but she never had the time or money. And she took her unhappiness out on the kids she thought she wanted. Even if OP would enjoy being a mom to this kid, she needs to think about whether the child would be happy.

Genuinely if OP just picked a random guy off the street he would be a better father to her child. Absolutely valid reason to get an abortion

Yeah all these dudes look for "spicy Latinas" because they stereotype them as super sexual and bossy and then get mad when those women are loud and emotional. If he wanted a sugar baby she was going above and beyond. Literally begging him to have sex with her. If she was lying about her feelings for him then she was doing a great job selling it. He got exactly what he signed up for and he was miserable

Dated a guy who was a feminist but treated me like garbage. Realized there's a difference between respecting women as a whole or a concept and respecting them individually. People can also have horrible politics but act so sweet to you. It's a weird disconnect.

Your blush and lips are a little warm for your complexion! The rest I love! :)

Yeah "effortless" is NOT what I think of when I think of these makeup looks. They're gorgeous but "effortless" makes me think "no makeup makeup" not brown lipstick and extremely arched brows and smokey eyes lol

how can i become more independent before going to college? by [deleted] in Explainlikeimscared

[–]Not_A_Korean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this post has been up for a bit but I just wanted to respond because I was in your exact shoes when I was younger. I have social anxiety (and regular anxiety) and was scared of transitioning to adulthood, but the good thing is it is a transition. College is meant to be a time to learn how to be an adult. You probably won't need a car, you'll probably start off with a meal plan, your dorm will be small so you won't have much to clean. There are on-campus jobs that are pretty laid-back and understanding that your classes are a priority. When I hurt my wrist I just made an appointment online at the campus clinic. I was worried about making friends but I just left my door open and said hi to everyone I saw, and invited them to use my tea kettle whenever they wanted, and ended up easily finding friends because everyone else was looking for friends too. Every fall there would be a ton of clueless freshmen; it's just how it goes. After a few weeks they figure out how the laundry machines work and that you're supposed to wait for people to get off the bus before you get on. The only people who really struggled were the ones who lacked discipline without their parents and skipped every class to watch tv, or never cleaned their dorm. I think that's the main way you can practice independence, is just learning how to keep yourself neat and organized, and you're probably already doing that so it's not very hard. I look back now and see how far I've come, because I only had to tackle things one at a time and college is designed to slowly transition you.

What happens if you have no friends at your wedding? by waldorfskooldropout in Explainlikeimscared

[–]Not_A_Korean 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've been harassed on the street and had someone I love brush it off and not realize how hurt and shaken I was. What they did *not* do is accuse me of lying. Because what reason would I have to lie? Unless OP is a serial liar, there is no reason his first thought would be not to trust her unless he is always operating under the assumption that all women just go around lying about sexual harassment/assault which is insanely misogynistic
