      Every single time there is a “badass woman” fighter character, especially in space/bounty hunting/an apocalyptic future, she looks just like this. This haircut, this face, neck tattoo, etc. it gives her a reason for being fit/skinny with huge boobs and to wear torn clothing that’s always torn to show a little cleavage and midriff.

      It’s a haircut that retains traditional views of feminity but incorporates the functionality of a military buzz cut. It makes a lot of sense for anyone who might have to wear a helmet but doesn’t want to chop it all because of their own aesthetics of just the time investment of having grown long hair. The maid of honor at my wedding had this haircut, and a few women I work with rock it as well.

        It looks less than practical. What do you do when you want to pull it all way from your face? Rock a side ponytail?

        No. It combines the worst of both worlds: the ugly military buzz cut and the untacticool long hair that are relics of 2010. The practical feminine-combat heroine wields a bob cut.

          the ugly military buzz cut

          FWIW, this is a pretty subjective statement. I’d say a bob cut is pretty unattractive, or at least moreso than OP’s picture, but that’s just me.

            Buzzcut has a good helping of IDGAF to it and when people say that you generally shouldn’t press. With fucks given I’d say the pixie cut reigns supreme when it comes to practicality, though. Bobcuts can easily look Kareny.
