Riding crop costumes go bye bye

Every industry out there is selling an image of some kind. And likely most, if not all, already engage in some (unofficial) biased hiring practices. (Like when I was skinny and pretty and wasn't hired because I couldn't possibly be smart enough to operate a computer.)

If those practices were explicitly condoned as appropriate for upholding the specific image, I'd be left with the career choices of sideshow freak or bell-ringer.

I'm sure many people in this world would prefer that I were confined to those types of roles. Most of those people don't realize how many of them would be forced to join me.
