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.

Care to elaborate what this is about?

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.

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.

It’s kind of a sideways femullet. Business on one, maybe two sides, party on the top.

It’s an undercut

It looks less than practical. What do you do when you want to pull it all way from your face? Rock a side ponytail?
Sarmyth@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 months ago
Regular pony tail. Both sides are usually buzzed.

So Mohawk-esque? That I can get with.

The character described is often given the haircut in the image.

Hm!
I must admit - it does add to the tough look... 🤔

Could also just be the general audience. There’s a reason they sport that look
