My sibling watched it happen in real time during the plandemic. Even had to threaten a divorce if they started surgically mutilating their body. That stopped the progression and got them off tik tok. Even to this day my sibling hopes that is is just a fad. So they play along placating to their brainwashed ego. Hoping for one day that the person they married finally wakes up.

Sometimes I really do wonder if all the endocrine disruptors are fucking with us. But I can see how during the Rona there was a huge focus on “beauty” and “makeup” and I, for one, didn’t get on TikTok until 2023 and even still I can’t stand makeup content because I worked in the beauty industry where they required me to wear that crap on my face every day haha - but I can see how that content genre is really aligned with drag queen culture - kind of maximalist makeup. So that’s my theory is the makeup industry is behind all of this. Haha
