Okay so I know this is kinda taboo but anyways.

Frida Kahlo: Not too easy on the eyes. I mean she’s got the lady-mo and the monobrow thing going on. She didn’t know where to put her blush or what shade lipstick would obviously suit her skin tone. Really, she’s a bit of a wreck. So this got me to thinking. What would have happened if her girlfriends had done the right thing and taken her to a beautician, (which clearly needed to happen)? I did a subtle re-paint over the top of her original self-portrait to “conceptualize” what it would have looked like if she had been whisked off to Beauty Works or the likes….I didn’t want to alter the integrity of the original painting too much. What do you reckon?

Did you really just skin-lighten a Frida Kahlo self portait

and remove her facial hair

and call her “a wreck”

and then say she couldn’t choose a fucking lipstick to suit her skin tone

after you changed her skin tone

how can one person be everything that is wrong with the world at once

I don’t think she changed her skin tone but still.. ! What the fuck are you doing? Who cares about making her beautiful by western beauty industry standards. You’re going against everything that makes her really beautiful. Frida had a bunch of fucked up shit happen to her, unibrow and all. And she wore her facial hair with pride. It’s part of who she was and what made her a strong, proud, awesome woman and symbol of feminism. The fact that you consider her friends not taking her to a salon to ‘fix’ her ‘flaws’, wrong. Only serves to show how shallow you really are. You don’t have to buy in to the shit they sell you to be beautiful. And fuck you, photoshop pictures of yourself next time.

I beg to differ.

Removing the lowlights and expanding the midtones and highlights to cover previously dark areas in order to “even out” the skintone counts as “lightening”.

Here’s a half-and-half comparison to better see what was done here:

This is basically what most hydroquinone skin-bleaching creams are touted to do.

The audacity of this person to try and “fix” Frida. I cannot. 

It’s a white man that did this.

-_______-

And it’s sad because by his (original) artwork, he does seem talented. Why is it that such talented people do such terrible things?

Because white supremacy.

Fuck anyone who thinks this is okay.

The fucking white male privilege, the sexism and the racism…fucking astounding.

-Redd, who is still pissed as fuck over this bullshit.

Let’s not forget that he:

• Thinks there is a formula for “pretty girls”. [x] 
• Portrays racial stereotypes. (Note that he usually portrays people from other countries at labourers in field, and rarely shows people from other countries in powerful roles.) [x] [x]
• Thinks having the “correct proportions” on a woman means taking away her muscles and making her facial expressions soft instead of badass. [x]
• Uses gender-stereotypical superhero poses. [x] [x]

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME YOU PIECE OF SHIT

NO. I’MA JUST NEED FOR EVERY FUCKING BODY TO STOP. LEAVE THIS BRILLIANT WOMAN ALONE.

What I find really interesting about this too is that Frida Kahlo’s self-portraits portray herself as she sees herself, not necessarily as she really looks. Look up a real photograph of Frida Kahlo:

She drastically chose to emphasize her own flaws because that’s how she sees herself. It’s a SELF-PORTRAIT. She wasn’t trying to paint herself PRETTY. By painting over her self-portrait, it’s like you’re completely invalidating her, her own opinions, her own views, her own innermost secrets.
