23 days out from the solstice, and I'm crabby. The following complaints are mine alone. There's your disclaimer, you lousy punks. Now get off my lawn!
Okay, I'm sick and @#$%ing tired of black toenail polish. I know you wankers love it, but honestly, on 99/100 girls it looks like absolute sh!t. And that 100th girl? She just walked out of the salon, and in ten minutes, thanks to Brownian motion, her polish will look like sh!t too. It is not possible to take good enough care of one's toes to maintain black nail polish. Also, it fails to compliment every skin tone.
Honestly, ladies, black nail polish doesn't look edgy, it doesn't look extreme, it makes me think that you are trying to recapture those days when you were 15 and you were experimenting with dressing like a skank when your mom wasn't looking. Alternatively, maybe your boyfriend saw a stripper he thought was edgy and made you wear the black polish.
Take it off, already, Halloween is over. Go put on the red or pink or french, because, like, you're totally not a mallwalking teenager anymore, fersher. THROW OUT your black nail polish, okay? Wake me when this stupid-ass fashion trend is DONE.
And while we're at it, I hate foot tattoos. When did we make the transition to this creepy, Orwellian society where every girl under 25 has to have a unique and permanent identifier? Did I miss a foot fetish meeting where we all decided to tatt up the girls? Are we sorting them by computer now?
Why not just get a bar code? Except it's not a unique identifier. Ladies, all these tattoos that your bum of a boyfriend thinks are unique and 1-of-a-kind really just blur together in an inky miasma. That tatt he talked you into getting is just like the one on his ex.
Your foot tattoo is NOT the Chinese/Celtic/Latin/Sanskrit word for "Strength," okay? There is only one word that is ever tattooed, and that word is "Skank." Oh, and tatts exaggerate your skin flaws. Just like the black nail polish. Really.
Some of you old guys like me will remember that iconic interview from the 80s where all those Madonna fans are standing outside the concert venue, and that one chick says she dresses identically to Madonna to express her individuality. You know what? Irony was better in the 80s too. You won't find that on YourTubes.
Crabby old man signing off for now. You jerks can write me back with how wrong I am once you download your daily thought-orders from Corporate. But instead of reading your little unique and special little pearls, I'm gonna go eat some fiber and try to move my bowels. My hip hurts. Lousy kids.

I like black because I'm into the whole pale skin black clothing look of a goth/metal girl. But, to each his own.

LMAO! excellent read and I couldn't help but to picture the old guy from the Disney / Pixar movie UP flailing his fist around in the air. I personally have no preference to nail color. I feel that lighter colors make the lady look more sweet and innocent. Darker colors however make them look a little more "experienced" and who doesnt want that every now and then?

I gotta say, this was a very interesting post! I don't waste my time on most since the first few lines loose me....this one was not only well written but well though out. Anyway, I do agree with a lot of what you say but I am sure that won't change a thing in respect to tattoos on feet cause in some circles, tattoos are a fetish in and of themselves for some people. Add that to feet and you have killer combo. As for me, I like polishes that are actual COLORS and it doesn't matter what that is as long as it's not stark white or jet black. As for tattoos on feet, I think covering them up with ink is a sin.
I look at it this way, if you don't like it, pass it up like I do...most of my models wear what I want them to wear and not based on general consensus since I am in it for my own passion first.

Such vast generalizations, ignorance, and flat out misogynism I don't know whether to respond seriously or take it as intentionally exaggerated word vomit.
In all of your post you never referred to women as having a mind of their own. You assume all women are stuck in some perpetual state of teenage-hood in which all of their fashion choices and preferences are determined by their "bum boyfriend" or sociological trends. It appears unfathomable for you to imagine girls do these things because they like them, and not because their boyfriend "makes them" do anything. You may not like it, but these women doing it seem more intelligent than you.

I am soooooooooooooooooooooo glad girls don't all wear French Pedicures. You want to talk about a pedicure that looks like shit soon after walking out of the salon - this would be it.
While I can take or leave black, I can say that about every color. I'm glad girls are not sheep and stick with two basic colors like red and pink - that would be lame.
As for tattoos, I don't have any and probably never will. I lean more to the side of not liking them on girls, but from my experiences, the girls are the ones that want them - not their boyfriends.

Also not a fan of the black polish or tattoos. But then, I'm a product of the 1960s, so maybe it's a generational thing.
As for the pseudo individuality you refer to, that's a sad sign of the times, and a measure of the corporate co-opting of what may have started out as marginal and edgy but which too often in capitalist society becomes mainstreamed into someting safely marketable but stripped of whatever radical origins it may have had.
