where the middle-aged protaganist kidnaps and sexually abuses a 12-year-old girl who he calls Lolita or “nymphet.” The aesthetic is now being reclaimed by girls who are less focused on sexualizing themselves and solely interested in the ultra-feminine aesthetic. As Mina’s essay touches on, there’s nothing wrong with blasting some Lana Del Rey and donning a Mary Jane but it gets more complicated the further you lean into the coquette narrative and inadvertently trade agency for allure.
It’s also essential to note that the idea of girlhood isn’t immune to the clutches of consumerism. Part of the appeal of the rose-tinted return to our past is that it can be improved through our own increased spending power. While we’re “just girls,” we’re able to do it differently this time round. We have salaries to spend on the must-have memorabilia we couldn’t have the first time round and actually buy the solutions to the something wrong with ourselves that products tell us we have.
The girlhood phenomenon isn't merely a preoccupation with aesthetics — it's a reflection of the complexities of modern feminism and consumerism. By examining its allure while simultaneously unpacking the tangled questions of authenticity and autonomy, we continue to gain insight into all that comes hand in hand with growing up in an unpredictable age.
