i thought this was an interesting take: thoughts? only reason Billie eilish’s shoot is controversial is bc she has big boobs if the girl had little bitty titties it would just be like oh this is avant garde but bc she’s got giant knockers everyone is like “omg male gaze” or “omg shes empowered” just let girls have huge tits omg - meli “preorder dreaming of you” lozada-oliva (@ellomelissa) May 3, 2021
the response definitely would have been a LOT less extreme if she wasn’t so busty, that’s for sure. i think there still would have been some discourse abt her posing in lingerie though given what a sharp turn it is from her previous photoshoot style.
Busty girls do face more polarizing opinions cause boobs are one of the most sexualized features on a woman. The butt and face can’t even complete lol.
That said I think that even if Billie was a much smaller size she’d still get commentary because she’s young, and the tomboy to sexual image.
Look at all the commentary Millie Bobby Brown gets for her outfits/stylings. She not busty like Billie but people would be up in arms if she did a post like this.
The last post has me wondering about people saying that her tomboy image was a calculated effort. I take with a grain of salt since I notice pop girls get this accusation more than the boys but we shall see.
Of course the alt pop girlie tend to do this but it’s usually after a few years. Her jump into this def a surprise idk if this overall will be her look~
I don’t personally think it was calculated tbh It isn’t unthinkable that she’s probably just growing out of that part of her. Maybe a bit more than what most people are used too but I have a younger cousin about her age that’s starting to grow out of her tomboy ~phase so lol
I feel like I remember her saying she made it a point to not show her body so people would pay attention to her music/men are pervs and she was underage and didn't want them making comments? I'm probably making that up, but I swear I read it somewhere.

All things considered, it truly is that simple.

Good for her. If she feels comfortable in her own body, more power to her
