nobody 2,667 Posted September 21, 2024 Apparently they made a show about me and my kind on Netflix. "In a futuristic society divided into Uglies and Pretties, where cosmetic surgery is mandatory, choosing to be yourself is the ultimate form of rebellion." Nice to see people waking up to looksism and the hardships ugly people face, but I'm sure, of course, the "Uglies" will be 8s instead of 10s which is just another form of looksism. Too bad it looks like a teen drama. I'm going to give a shot anyway since it touches on such an important issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nobody 2,667 Posted September 22, 2024 I watched it last night. Sadly, it's not about looksism as much as it's about corruption. Also it's pretty bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
