Hello, all. I’m Intern Bren. I’ve been entrusted to write about things on the internet, which is scary. Let me start by saying I love you all and your hair smells incredible. On to the good stuff…
Jezebel has uncovered this interesting little mini-documentary originally published by Current TV entitled “Sexy Girls Have It Easy.” In it Carolyn tries to get random things, like ice cream and bus rides, for free – once as her regular self and then again as a short-dress-clad, high-heeled, big-haired version of herself. Not that there is anything wrong with high heels or big hair. It’s just not Carolyn’s usual deal.
Guess which look gets more free stuff. If you guessed the conventionally-attractive-by-societal-standards one, you’d be right. She walks away with £23.70 of free stuff. I think that’s like $5,798.34 in American money. That’s nothing to sneeze at.
I’m guessing she got hassled a lot by some of these guys after said “free” stuff exchanged hands. Is it worth it to make yourself into something you’re not just to be treated better? Should you have to?
Also, if you pay attention to the details, you just might fall in love with England. She went to pubs with names like “Dog and Duck” and “Pillars of Hercules No.7.” You won’t find any generic Margaritavilles there!
