I greatly appreciate this take. I've been thinking a lot about blondeness and whiteness recently with the far right takes on beauty starting to trend.

Ooh yes! I'm also really fascinated by the way we (culturally) read blondness on the far right. It makes me wonder how progressive white women who share some beauty and fashion interests differentiate themselves (if at all)?

I was literally discussing with @SLUTTY FOUNDER by Essence Iman today about how we couldn’t tell the 3 blonde Gen X women actresses on White Lotus S3 apart.

Oh yes, I remember this! I hadn't read the article, so I was so confused by all the mean comments. I didn't realize how important blondeness was to their sense of self.
