    this is another thinly veiled misogynist take in criticizing the way women speak. filler words, vocal fry, now lip filler accent?

    influencers have deeply help shape and change the syntax and pronunciation of modern patterns, and this author specifically mentions them. but this seems to be yet another way to shame and censure a specific group. lip filler is a body mod not completely, but predominantly used by female presenting folks.

    i disagree - i dont think lip filler accent is a thing, it is just another way to condemn women and girls for a feature or trend that is disliked by a specific subset seeking to normalize their belief set.

      It objectively is though. You can dislike how people are parodying it, but it absolutely exists.

        i’m not sure you know what objectively means - can you please link any piece of research or any information that is not an opinion piece?

      Wasn’t it archive.is that served malware to use browsers to DDOS some journalist they had a beef with? In that case I’ll do just fine without.
