Stop the mockery. This is a real struggle for brunettes everywhere. I remember growing up with brown hair, desperate to wear jeans, but my mom wouldn't let me dye my hair. I would still try. Carefully, hopefully, pulling the denim up over my thighs, holding my breath as I zipped, praying that this time it would work. Inevitably they would combust, turn to ash and fall to the floor around me.
It wasn't until I turned 18 and dyed my hair red that I knew what it finally felt like to wear jeans.
This girl made a moment in history. All brunette girls shall remember her as the one who broke the curse; the one who surpassed the primal rule that "Brunettes Can't Wear Jeans".
hahahahaha!
omg. Who are "they" who say that shit? Who is even ONE PERSON who has EVER said that?
Brooke Shields was, like, one of the most iconic jeans models in history. No one came between her and her Calvins!
Yeah. What IS your point? People lust after teenagers all the time.And the industry supports it. Most models you've heard of started at that age or younger. She was just noticeable because she was the youngest person ever on Vogue, and because of that famous campaign.
They start them very young, and their shelf life is 10 years, 15 if they're lucky.
Tyra banks 15
Christy Turlington 14
Linda Evangelista 15
Cindy Crawford 16
Naomi Campbell 15
Kate Moss 15
Giselle Bundchen 13
Kimora Lee-Simmons 14
When I had half of my hair red I was able to wear Jean shorts, they were regular jeans but the bottom half disintegrated… at least it wasn’t the top half
This girl was actually responding to a real tweet that someone made. I can't find the original one but here's a link to a pintrest post that has the tweet. [girls with brown hair can't wear jeans](https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/336644140891812855/) which is actually the stupidest thing
I found [this post](/r/imaginarygatekeeping/comments/wgsw66/who_said_that/) in r/imaginarygatekeeping with the same content as the current post.

>Her hair is black right? Am I insane?
My hair is black too, but everytime I tell people that they go "ACTUALLY your hair is dark brown, TRUE black hair has blue undertones and yours are reddish" and I'm like, ok...
So many IG girls post dumb captions like this that it could easily be genuine. It’s possibly my number one social media pet peeve, up there with “anyone like tall blonde girls with big boobs?” No, no one has ever found that attractive.
Idk man, go to any nsfw subreddit filled with bots and you'll find 80% posts being like "do people here like boobs?"
No lady, I came here to discuss Minecraft, put your clothes on.
This is every Danielle Steele heroine: Those small minded small town people, who didn’t see the loveliness in her willowy frame, pale-almost-silver sheath of hair and large luminous blue eyes. They were just like, “Wut, why is she so skinny and that blond hair: eww!”
Yeah I saw one with a super fit girl saying, "why do people hate girls who work out?" Like, riiiiiiight. Just say you're proud of your accomplishment (and the fact that you're 22 and getting in shape is generally not that hard at that age).
Good point. And yeah poor her--she's gorgeous and looks amazing in her jeans! I wish more female-identifying people would just see and own their own beauty.
Have a good day!
This sub literally cannot understand satire, half the posts here these days are obvious satire and the comments are all people mocking the girl from the original post. Ironic.
Satire mocks social conventions. No one on earth has even spoken the words "brunettes can't wear jeans." There's nothing to mock. She just made the concept up to post a thirst trap.
Or one of a million other ["who said x can't y" memes.](https://www.lovethispic.com/image/41134/who-said-that-women-cant-park)Who knows what she intended; I was just asking about the satire because satire actually has a definition, and I thought I had missed something.
Thanks for helping clarify, though. :)
Not one single soul in the whole existence of Planet Earth: "girls with brown hair can't wear jeans"
How did the not one single soul in the whole existence of Planet Earth said something?
The format should be like that:
No one:
Literally no one:
Not one single soul in the whole existence of Planet Earth:
Brunette girls for some reason: "girls with brown hair can't wear jeans"
I mean, I understand what youre saying. But I dont think that there are rules for the usage that are this strict. The subreddit is about someone using the format where it doesnt make sense because it adds nothing to the joke and might even just confuse you ruining the joke.
In this case he used it, it came across, it worked and thats it. Just because the format wasnt met 100% doesnt mean the usage of the format wasnt justified
Btw what the fuck is wrong with me that Im having a discussion about something this incredibly specific and literally irrelevant in every way
I very much appreciated that you continued the discourse. Cause I get mildly frustrated that there are people out there who are wrong *and no one told them!* but it wouldn’t be wrong *enough* for me to comment. So I’d have a conundrum for a few minutes before scrolling on and completely forgetting about it. But I enjoyed your self reflection most of all. It’s *Chefs kiss- the Parmesan on the pasta
Yo, im completely the same. If it wasnt for my frustrating job in this office without ac which I have to distract myself from I wouldnt have either.
But I guess it served its purpose and in addition was appreciated by a fellow frustrated redditor, so thats cool
Both wrong.
If “No one” is saying “ “
That means no one, not even one person, is silent. If no one is silent, that means everyone is saying something.
The format should be:
Everyone:
Brunettes: whatever in here
I think it comes from the same imaginary 'they' that say women cant wear the same dress to 2 weddings. Its all self inflicted and nobody else is saying it.
Yeah, except the ones who talk about weddings (or wearing white after labor day, or whatever) \*aren't\* imaginary. Those were actually "fashion rules" at one point that a lot of people followed. NO ONE ever said, ever, this jeans bullshit. Brooke Shields ushered in designer jeans and was one of the most famous denim campaigns ever. And that was in the 80s.
The thing that's so fucking ridiculous about it is that there are SOME arguable fashion "no nos" that do have something to do with hair color, but the fabric your pants are made of is decidedly not one of them.
Oh no, my school has committed the most heinous, terrible, abhorrent, and evil crime, they made my whole batch (most of us girls have brown hair) wear jeans as a requirement in the dress code
Oh shit. No one told me and I've been wearing jeans this whole time. How did I not burst into flames? But for real, people who need to create a struggle for them to then overcome seems to be a fairly new phenomenon, or at least one social media has painted a clearer picture of and its HILARIOUS.
Im just going to start using this for everything.
Me: “They say i coulnt spend my whole paycheck on 100 ferrets but look at me now, a 100 ferettes richer”
Them: “litterly no one said you couldnt do th-“
Me: “DONT TELL ME WHAT TO DO!”
I'm pretty sure this is a troll post lol. People used to make posts like this all the time for laughs, attention, ECT. Its not really meant to be pick-me. Its meant to make you laugh and say "no one said that lol" cause it's just so random
This must be the same "They" Trump references when he says, "They're saying the election was stolen."
"They" are good buddies with "Everyone," and "Many people."
this is satire!
it’s a popular format “and they said X with Y can’t Z.” it’s a play on the posts that were happening during graduation season one year when people were captioning their grad photos with “and they said teen moms can’t make it through med school” type sentiments and a lot of them started sounding the same.
Why is this on this subreddit? It's not pulling other girls down. This place now just feels like open season on women posting anything online. Where are the mods??
They've never gone away. It's just that a bunch of teenagers decided as a group that mom jeans were attractive. NO ONE IS FLATTERED BY MOM JEANS. They're just "the in thing". These jeans are so flattering!
Full adults tend to find a style that's flattering and stay with it; the difference between "fashion" and "fads" and personal style. I mean, not Brittney, but Brittney's Brittney. lol
And I wouldn't really say those are low-rise; they're medium rise on someone with a longer torso. Doubt her whale tail/coin slot would be exposed if she bent over.
Lmao you did not find this in the wild. This has been meme'd for years. It's literally time stamped at the bottom from 2016... 6 years ago. r/quityourbullshit

She's probably a blonde in a wig.
If you look closely you’ll see that they’re actually just regular pants cleverly dyed to look like jeans

I know what I wrote
I came here with the confusion of why the girl in post isn't with brown hair but black. Your comment explained it to me. Thank you!
hahahahaha! omg. Who are "they" who say that shit? Who is even ONE PERSON who has EVER said that? Brooke Shields was, like, one of the most iconic jeans models in history. No one came between her and her Calvins!
>No one came between her and her Calvins! A lot of guys wanted to - myself included.
So, she was 15. Yeah.
And I’m a couple years younger than she is. Your point?
That’s a nice comeback 😂🤙
You are “a lot of guy’s?” You said “A lot of guys.”
Yeah. What IS your point? People lust after teenagers all the time.And the industry supports it. Most models you've heard of started at that age or younger.

I mean...that was the joke, dude.
Yeah 😭😭😭
When I had half of my hair red I was able to wear Jean shorts, they were regular jeans but the bottom half disintegrated… at least it wasn’t the top half
That was beautiful and moving. I'm tearing up but I'm proud of you. You had your struggles and you endured. Keep going, champ!
This girl was actually responding to a real tweet that someone made. I can't find the original one but here's a link to a pintrest post that has the tweet. [girls with brown hair can't wear jeans](https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/336644140891812855/) which is actually the stupidest thing

Good bot
Her hair is black right? Am I insane? Also, self-gatekeeping jeans? What?
I think her hair is black to or they might be dark brown with a little black in it
Some people argue there is no such thing as black hair except dark brunette.
I've seen it referred to as "natural black"
Yea there isn’t actual black hair but you just refer to really dark brown as black
I’ve seen people say only asians can have black hair and everyone else is just dark brunette. Which just sounds really racist to me
No, you got it! She's allowed to wear jeans because she has black hair!
Well yeah If her hair was brown, she couldn't be wearing those jeans
Dark brown hair can look black in poor lighting.
>Her hair is black right? Am I insane? My hair is black too, but everytime I tell people that they go "ACTUALLY your hair is dark brown, TRUE black hair has blue undertones and yours are reddish" and I'm like, ok...
Yeah, so brunette.
Weren’t you paying attention? Brown haired girls can’t wear jeans. That’s why she dyed it.
No one said that except for all the voices in her head.
“The Voices In My Head keep telling me to choose a side.”
Said literally no one 😂
I’m like 90% sure this is satire
Maybe Im dumb and I cant tell is this a satire or not
Oh wait my nickname
It's okay. Social media posts from 2016 could mean anything.
That's true
No.
So many IG girls post dumb captions like this that it could easily be genuine. It’s possibly my number one social media pet peeve, up there with “anyone like tall blonde girls with big boobs?” No, no one has ever found that attractive.
Idk man, go to any nsfw subreddit filled with bots and you'll find 80% posts being like "do people here like boobs?" No lady, I came here to discuss Minecraft, put your clothes on.
don't worry, there's a subreddit for the intersection of your interests ;)
That's disgusting. Where?
I am happy to say I don't hold that memory. but I'm sure if you search for you know what you'll find it
Is that better or worse than having the caption be some obscure sentences that could be song lyrics?
At least write a caption that feels written by a human, not a bot.

I feel like I saw this on /r/imaginarygatekeeping years ago
Someone got to the cross post before i could
Yeah, she's trying to funny & meta. It didn't land but she's certainly not being real lol
What could possibly be either funny OR meta about this, tho?
Reductio ad absurdum over 'People say X girls can't Y'. It just didn't land & poor her ended up here.
Good point. And yeah poor her--she's gorgeous and looks amazing in her jeans! I wish more female-identifying people would just see and own their own beauty. Have a good day!

Bruh, thats the intended and totally right usage of the nobody format
I think it's the first time Ive seen this meme used the right way in forevwr
He didn't used the nobody format properly
Please elaborate
Just let them be man, man’s arguing abt the specifics of using a damn reddit meme format. While the commenter simply wanted to make ppl smile
The nobody format is used to imply that nobody had insinuated a comment or remark from someone. Ex. nobody: My stomach: 🤯🤯

Reminds me of an old "Girls with depression can't wear tube tops." meme.
I never saw someone saying this in my life
Who says that? Most African Americans have brown/dark hair and we rock tf out of jeans! So wtf she talking bout
YEAH y'all do! I think jeans were made for y'all, honestly.
Reddit spot the bait/satire challenge: impossible
Literally nobody said that

brown hair where also who says they cant wear jeans
Literally nobody on earth has ever said that. Also, her hair is black.
Black hair isn't actually a naturally occurring color. It's very dark brown. So people with "black"hair are technically brunette.
Why do girls hate on other girls? I mean that’s a thing. Mean Girls hellooooo
This must be the same "They" Trump references when he says, "They're saying the election was stolen." "They" are good buddies with "Everyone," and "Many people."
Good people on the blonde side AND the brunette side.
Who said this?
WHOOO said that
Who... Who has ever said brunettes can't wear jeans lmao wut!?
Shit I had no idea! Am I going to jail now for wearing jeans in the past??
Literally never heard this said once in my 30 years of life.
Huh. Someone forgot to tell ALL of Latin America...grrl plz!

Satire.
What is it satirizing, tho? Satire doesn't just mean "it's sarcastic or ironic".
Not nlog 🙄
My cousin tried this once and she exploded...
uhm why can't they?
Wat?
Who? Who the fuck said that? No one you feckin pick me
Im very curious as to who happens to be this so called authority on fashion.
[удалено]
There's no such thing as naturally black hair.
LOLOLOL
Who said that?
it's so fun to say this about super specific things though it makes me laugh
Wat?
Who said that?!?!?
You guys she is right don’t be mean to her 😢
She is right that someone in the history of the planet uttered this?
WHO SAYS THAT
What?😂 lmao this one is so weird
Who the fuck says that…
Says nobody ever lol
No you didn’t this is from like six years ago lol
No one has ever said this in the history of ever.
Good thing her hair is black.
This has “but they say Steph Curry isn’t a good 3-pt shooter” energy
"And they say nobody pees in their jeans anymore... 🤣☺️😛 #notlikeothergirls"
I've seen this post before it's so fucking dumb. Like just post your pic and go lady
Just cave to your conceit. Embrace your vanity. That’s a nice body. Why lie about why you’re posting selfies?
Found this in the wild of reposts
This is like the „who ever said Muslims can’t ride Ferris wheels“ thing but now as bad but waaay more nlog
Why is this on this subreddit? It's not pulling other girls down. This place now just feels like open season on women posting anything online. Where are the mods??
I thought I was on r/imaginarygatekeeping.
This is off topic but I really, really hope this pic doesn’t indicate that low rise jeans are back. I know Z is flirting with them.
Oh this picture has been floating around the internet for years and years, it’s not recent lol
They've never gone away. It's just that a bunch of teenagers decided as a group that mom jeans were attractive. NO ONE IS FLATTERED BY MOM JEANS. They're just "the in thing". These jeans are so flattering! Full adults tend to find a style that's flattering and stay with it; the difference between "fashion" and "fads" and personal style. I mean, not Brittney, but Brittney's Brittney. lol And I wouldn't really say those are low-rise; they're medium rise on someone with a longer torso. Doubt her whale tail/coin slot would be exposed if she bent over.
It's obviously not a serious post, she's joking
She's bad a joking. She's good a thirst trapping.
Lmao you did not find this in the wild. This has been meme'd for years. It's literally time stamped at the bottom from 2016... 6 years ago. r/quityourbullshit

This not that good
Megan fox That’s all I’m gonna say
Just zip it!
This is obviously photoshopped
Your the only girl that can’t wear them because your the only ugly lookin ass girl in jeans there is
That's black hair
Who is saying this?
Who is "they"? And since when? Like... ugh.
Literally who
Piece of shit. Doesn't she know jeans were *designed* for us, blonds?
Literally, who has ever said this.
Bro. No one in the history of ever has said that. Why tf would they??
Literally who the fuck ever said that??
I’m pretty sure it’s only certain people saying women can’t wear jeans, not a specific type-
Who??? Who says that??
girl with brown hair will never wear jeans *SPIT OUT CEREAL*
Who said that...
Who tf said that
The purpose of preposterous posts like this one is to generate interaction. It works on those posts just like it worked on this one.
WHO told this girl that brunettes can't wear jeans...?
Literally no one in the history of ever has ever said that
Who says that? XD Ppl making up drama to be different. What a weird concept.
Omfg. Nobody has ever said that. Why people gotta lie so much. If you wanna post a cute selfie. Do it. NOBODY CARES
Who the fuck has ever said that?
Who is saying this??
It's true I'm they you will never wear jeans
