The internet has decided: the bimbo is back. But what does a return to bimboism mean for feminism? Is it just a regression into outdated stereotypes, or a reclamation of a set of aesthetic codes that have previously harmed us? And most importantly, is it really radical to be a bimbo?
Halima and Ione are dissecting it all; from the problematic Pam and Tommy miniseries, to leftist women embracing being a bimbo with their whole heart and whether this resurgence in popularity is just another symptom of our early 00's nostalgia. One things for certain; the bimbo revolution must be intersectional!
