"Jenny doesn't accidentally look twelve..."
Jenny doesn't accidentally look twelve in every outfit. Jenny doesn't get carded anymore. Jenny never got carded in a gas station for looking to young to drive. At 19 years old. She can wear fun make-up. Bright purple eyeshadow or Blue lipstick. I look like a kid playing with face paint if I go anywhere beyond the neutrals or skin tones. If Jenny wears pigtails it's cutesy and sexy, not infantile. Jenny has the blonde hair and dark roots, I have the dark hair and blonde roots. Dark hair makes me look at least a little bit older than blonde hair. Fucking Jenny. She didn't have to abandon everything pink at 16 years old. I'll look 13 until I suddenly turn into an old lady at either 50 or 60. At least then Jenny and I will be the same.
