      Does that mean 90s fashion is going to make a return soon? I am all for that to be honest.

        there was a lot of BAD 90s fashion, be cautious about what you are asking for!

            You missed out the part about it being copied. This is an original work as far as I can tell, it would become a meme if for example it was reposted in many places with different text.

            Comics can of course be memes, but I don’t think this one is. What’s the Loss that you’re referring to?

                I meant original as in unmodified. You linked to the same comic.

                Yes this is my first day on the internet.

                In the interest of actually having a good faith discussion, I agree with the definition given here, for example:

                If you draw a picture and call it a meme but nobody else recognizes it or wants to replicate it, it’s not a meme.

                It would be interesting to discuss if you disagree with this definition.

      Correct. Along with crop tops. Because it’s the era of paying more for less in everything, even clothing materials.

      I don’t disagree, but the high-waisted era works a lot better for girls with more curve to their figures, which I see as a net gain.

      And considering the number of overweight/obese people continues to grow apace, it’s not a bad thing for them to be able to feel good about themselves and have fashion options that flatter their figures instead of all fashion being catered to near-impossible body types.

      This should not be read as an endorsement of obesity, which can be a dangerous medical issue, but rather a willingness to see that everyone deserves to feel positive about their self image. Weight gain is a difficult issue to tackle in a country that subsidizes corn syrup and puts it in damn everything, on top of a broken education system that certainly doesn’t teach people healthy eating.

        On one hand, low rise jeans were a result of the beauty ideal at the time being “heroin chic,” which was undoubtedly harmful and caused many to develop eating disorders.

        On the other hand, high waisted jeans are a result of the beauty ideal now being Kim Kardashian, which is still harmful (ask all the women out there with botched Brazilian butt lifts), not the least because the Kardashians lie about their bodies being natural so they can shill useless products.

        Although having a small waist is still ideal, I’m glad the window has shifted back from the time when celebrities were slammed in every magazine as fat for looking like this.

        Obesity itself is poorly defined and the understanding of it has been determined by diet culture fads that affect the directions nutritional science goes, in a co-production feedback loop. Medicalizing adiposity is fraught with socioeconomic issues. Best to let people live and wear what they like.
