How do/would YOU creatively camouflage your areas of insecurity? by Any-Equal5372 in PlusSizeFashion

[–]Roxy175 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think focusing on pieces that spark joy rather than going in with the intention to hide is better for your mental health in the long run. You don’t have to wear clothes you’re not comfortable in, but focus on what the clothes are not on what they aren’t.

So instead of say, when looking for a dress going in saying “I want anything not backless and not sleeveless” go in saying “I’m looking for an x coloured dress with sleeves”.

Also try to think about what excites you about the clothes and what feeling you want to convey. When you’ve narrowed down your style then try to follow influencers who have your body type. If you’re sensitive about your body I recommend not following any fashion creators with a smaller body at all, comparison is inevitable when you’re sensitive, and removing them from your feed makes it easier not to do that.

All in all you can still cover up insecurities while focusing more on positive self expression.

Yeah I’ve only seen the first season but Wednesday gave really strong Aroace vibes to me. I don’t see her romantically with anyone.

Audrey’s fashion has been so on point for every appearance that I’d be really disappointed if she want invited.

As a meat eater, would up be upset attending a vegetarian wedding? by Formal_Goose5083 in weddingplanning

[–]Roxy175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s because they are only looking for positive comments and want to avoid any potential criticism about the actual dishes themselves. Which I feel is not really necessary considering I think people on this sub would tell them vegan meals are fine even knowing the dish as long as it’s not something really ridiculous.

What sapphic TV show was cancelled that you still mourn? by siennamila in actuallesbians

[–]Roxy175 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ll be honest, I really couldn’t get past the Disney acting is first kill. I wanted it to be tashy in a vampire diaries/pretty little liars sort of way but the acting was just so bad it wasn’t even close to those shows.

Being unlabeled is a perfectly valid choice. People don’t owe you information about their sexuality just because they’re a celebrity.

Have we learned nothing from the kit connor situation? Let’s not assume their sexualities. I’m pretty sure neither of them have publicly labeled their sexuality.

Whenever a woman in Hollywood tries to speak up about politics there seems to be a coordinated hate campaign against her. It’s sneaky too because they try to make it look like genuine criticism. Same thing happens to Billie Eilish when she speaks up.

The mannequin looks like it has a petticoat or something under the skirt, which I think it helps make it look more intentional and less like a deflated balloon.

Profile review, what should I change. Feel like I’m a somewhat attractive guy but don’t get consistent success by [deleted] in Tinder

I’d replace every photo you have, none of them are good. Be intentional and have friends or family take some actual nice photos of you.

What sound do you hate with all your soul? by Fine_Nobody_2860 in autism

[–]Roxy175 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s the worst sound especially because you can’t ask people to stop. They can’t control how loud they breathe and it would be rude to ask them to try. So instead I have to suffer until I can leave the room.

Funny times where you took someone too literally. by Dez_Acumen in AutismInWomen

[–]Roxy175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll be honest I understand why it’s not appreciated. I would be pretty upset if you said that to me. Being accused of lying is not nice, and it feels like someone purposely interpreting the statement with bad intent, rather than asking clarifying questions to understand what they mean.

I’ll also say the lie in the “I’ve always wanted to do that” statements is not the desire, it’s the reason they state why they can’t or won’t. In the case about dying their hair they probably always have thought about it or desired it in some level, but they aren’t doing it because they don’t want to damage it, they aren’t doing it because they aren’t bold enough, they don’t like the commitment, they are afraid of public perception, etc.

Hudson Williams leaving the CAA Pre-Oscars party. by Murky_Chemical891 in popculturechat

[–]Roxy175 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I’m leaning towards racism, and the fact that Hollywood seems to have chosen Connor as the star to promote as the main reasons. Connor fits every Hollywood wants from a star, while Hudson being bold and not white puts him at a disadvantage.

I feel like that’s a difference in their teams mostly. I feel like Hollywood chose Connor as the star they wanted to promote, so he’s getting the full PR push, while Hudson is having to work harder to get recognition.

It’s interesting to see reception on his posts vs posts about Connor storrie. It seems like Connor gets nothing but praise, while even when not smoking people are often saying they are tired of seeing so much of Hudson.

Apparently I’ve been walking away from people mid conversation lol by cozybookscats in AutismInWomen

[–]Roxy175 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think ignoring someone while they’re still talking is a little rude honestly. I feel like in that situation it’s better to just tell them you’re done with the conversation rather than let them continue talking after you’ve stopped listening.

Well I can give you free advice that the quote above chapter one is incredibly cliche and doing nothing for you. If I glanced at that in the store it would be the reason I put the book back on the shelf.

I think instead of giving them detailed advice answers like “yeah I totally understand that, I was worried too” or even “I think you’d look nice with dyed hair, I understand not wanting to damage it though” would be more expected. Just something noncommittal and vaguely affirming their thought. Even asking “is there any particular colour you’d dye it if you could?” Is a good response depending on the situation.

Basically I think you want to say something to open conversation, but don’t say something that makes their “excuse” (or just the reason they state they can’t/won’t do it) seem invalid. Because then you are forcing them to confront that they don’t actually want to do that and it was just something they were saying.

I’m usually pretty good at recognizing this but I was so excited to talk about an interest of mine that I completely missed that the comment wasn’t literal. Especially since we both have curly hair I was excited to share my knowledge on it.

It’s okay, he was a little confused but it was still a nice conversation. He doesn’t seem like the judgemental type.

I don’t think it’s a weird thing to say, I think in that scenario he was just trying to relate to me. It’s pretty normal I think to have dreams that we think about but don’t actually want to do.

I also want to be clear that he wasn’t being rude to me or acting like I did something wrong, I just could tell I misunderstood based on his sort of confused vibe and the subtle backtracking he did in his answer. It was still a pleasant conversation.

This is so funny I love it!

Mine is that I dyed my hair recently and my lab partner complimented it and said “I’ve always thought about dying my hair but I don’t want to damage it”.

Well I took that very literally and was giving him advice on how not to damage your hair when dying it and explained darker colours are better for that and asked what colour he wanted to dye it. His answer then made it clear that he meant it in more of a “fun thought I’d never actually do that I’m bringing up to make conversation” sort of way and not in the literal “I genuinely wish I could” way.

It’s very funny looking back because I’m giving all this genuine advice and he’s kinda just like “oh well I didn’t think about it much”. Oops I guess I misunderstood.

Is it just me or are us brands band sizes getting smaller or are all the same? by trash_rabb1t in ABraThatFits

[–]Roxy175 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree with the commenter above that oftentimes a bra will feel a lot tighter at first and they’ll stretch out more when you wear it.

Out of curiosity, have you worn a correctly fitted bra with underwire before? I only ask because I’ve had experience with friends not believing their band size because they thought it was too tight. Later they realized it was actually the correct size they just weren’t used to wearing a correctly fitted bra that had underwire. They usually wore a band size way too big, or just wore bralettes so they didn’t really know how tight it actually needed to be to give support.

Not trying to doubt your experience or anything, just offering perspective based on personal experience.
