I’m a country girl – Karens tell me real female farmers don’t wear makeup and fake nails but I’ve still got nice crops
A COUNTRY girl has had enough of Karens stating she can’t be a real farmer if she likes a bit of glamor.
She said she’s fed up with such dated stereotypes about what a country girl should look like.
The work ethic of @itsthatkiwigirl is pretty clear on her TikTok account.
Her audience of over 124,000 followers is a testament to that.
She regularly posts videos of life as a farmer.
This lady manages to look glamorous even if she is dressed down in overalls and boots.
In one of her posts, she bemoaned the doubters who say hair and beauty and farming don’t go together.
“Real farm girls don’t wear makeup and have fake nails,” she wrote, repeating the tired line she has heard far too often.
She posted her video from a field of corn, the crop towering over her.
Her face was made up and included false eyelashes.
“It is so annoying. You basically have to look your worst to get anyone to take you seriously,” she complained.
But she has vowed to take no more nonsense.
“You can only comment on this to me once,” she said to her Karen detractors.
There were other country girls in the comments section who had similar experiences.
“Just because you farm doesn’t mean you can’t feel pretty,” wrote this lady.
The final commenter, however, had no intention of changing her beauty regime.
“I get my nails done every month but give me a farm life over a town life any day,” she said with determination.
