Should The Stigma That Women Having Body Hair, Piercings, Or Tattoos At Work Go? by DyshApp: 6:57pm On May 01, 2023
It's 2023, and people still care about how much hair women have on their bodies and if they have visible tattoos and piercings.

Even in the workplace, engrained societal beauty standards lead to the policing of women's bodies and contribute to the removal of their autonomy. Oftentimes, women who choose not to remove body hair are shamed for being "unprofessional" or "unhygienic," and studies have shown that women with tattoos are perceived as less intelligent, less honest, and less motivated.

But the bottom line is that the amount of hair on our bodies and whether we have piercings and tattoos or not doesn't impact how well we're able to perform our jobs-talent is talent, no matter what it looks like.

Personally, I'm only interested in the quality of the brain not necessarily physical outlook which sounds more like body shaming to me
