@couturecrema So are you equally against poly/cotton blends, fleece, those moisture wicking synthetic fabrics, quilts and stuffed animals with synthetic stuffing etc? Those are all plastic too.
@ParentsInfluen1 I look really androgynous, and there's definitely a difference in how strangers respond to me when I'm wearing casual clothes that could be for any gender vs. specifically mens' clothing. Whether people act like I'm in their way vs. we both move a little is part of it.
@ParentsInfluen1 Guys. If you'll get out of a woman's way when you find yourself accidentally on a collision course, as often happens in crowded places, but won't believe her when she tells you most guys don't, congratulations, you're still a jerk to women.
@drFrost_catcher@willy_clart@stitson_amanda @GaetaAmy I see you've never spent time with goose farmers. So many stories about ganders raising the goslings, either together with a goose, because the goose dropped the ball, or when the goose would've done fine but one or more ganders were baby crazy and wanted to take over.
@PaperCakes@mummabryan They can, but sometimes they'll always feel a little weird about having changed it. I'm trans and my identity (not gender identity just selfness) still feels a disjointed years later. I'm sure this depends on the specific person but the possibility is there.
@flexghost1@antifaoperative@MarshaBlackburn My grandma had a degree in home economics. She invented a sewing table that fit over a bed for sewers who couldn't easily sit for hours due to illness or disability, and got a patent on it.
@is_damage@mishacollins Also thanks for validating the similarity I'd observed between these laws and certain genocides. Trans isn't a race and I'm white myself so I'm unsure of how much similarity can be drawn, but historically taking away children means trying to kill a culture. Terrifying.
Animals don't worry. Sometimes when it's all too much, you can join them in not worrying. For just a moment, you're a chicken, all your friends are chickens, and everything is okay. (In case it's not clear, I'm speaking metaphorically.)
@Dwn_323@mishacollins@NPR You're not wrong; in many states it's legal to have one by choice as long as it's early enough in the pregnancy. (The idea being to do it before the brain develops enough to actually think and stuff.)
