A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Madonna spent years as a sex symbol, which absolutely takes time, effort and very consenious eating. Not to mention makeup, hair and fashion. What I see in her pic is a streamlined and simple to maintain look. She already has the money and nothing left to prove so... YOLO?

Then why destroy her face with terrible plastic surgery

Because she had the audacity to * gasp * age. When you're a person who has been valued by the entire world for how your face looks, it's going to be fucking shattering when normal aging things start happening and people post pictures of you online with headlines and comments and articles about you've "let yourself go."

There is no winning. We demand that these women "age gracefully" which means, get no plastic surgery, but also stay hot like you were when you were 20, until you die, plz.

Thats not relaxing on beauty. That's trying harder than ever and using plastic surgery / botox.
