I wonder what Anthony Lane would have considered a more “flattering” get up for a female character. Perhaps tighter jeans so my ass would get some more screen time? Maybe a push up bra paired with a low cut blouse would have secured my place in the canon of heroines who succeed against all odds without letting you forget both their youth and fertility? As for the hair, it seems the cut exceeds the designated dose of quirk we accept from women on screen. Dear Anthony Lane, my costume was no oversight, it was intentional—however the desired effect was not to make me appear unsightly—rather, it was to show you that a woman is powerful and beautiful in the big jeans and baggy gray tops you so abhor.

Media is king—and the ideals put forth by an emblem of intellectual culture like #thenewyorker—are going to be internalized to some degree by the people who read them. It will be of great detriment to our society to have a class of forward thinking human beings reifying outdated standards of beauty.

I have learned to take the opinions of others—particularly those belonging to the media—with a few thousand grains of salt. Still I can’t help but feel disappointed when a publication like @The New Yorker allows such glib commentary about women’s appearances to be published. In this heated moment of vibrant discussion surrounding women’s bodies, liberal journalism needs to be adding an entirely different voice to this conversation.
