non-transmascs love to use us as an excuse to harass he/him lesbians by saying shit like “it hurts trans men when you use those pronouns :(((” like… no, i can tell u rn it literally does not affect us…. and in fact the implication that it would IS whats transphobic bc yall are basically saying you just view trans men as women who use “male pronouns” & its just too hard :,((( for you to tell the difference between gnc women who literally keep telling you over and over that they are still women and… trans men who are actually men and will tell you they are men
like, you cant claim to be fighting transphobia when you litcherally just view trans ppl as a set of pronouns lol
An autistic friend of mine just said this to me “The harder I work at communication the more people expect from me and the less they are willing to compromise.” and it is the most fucking heartbreaking thing I’ve heard.
This is very much a thing, though - and I’m sure people across the board with other disabilities can verify that it happens to them, too.
People will turn any progress you make toward being “normal” - no matter how straining or difficult it is for you, no matter how little it actually helps you - as either inspiration porn, or proof that you don’t really need accommodations, you just need to “apply yourself! :)))))”
Definitely. Though I’ve found it especially pernicious with the autism because being too good at communication makes people completely unwilling to believe that you’re autistic. After all, everyone knows autistic people can’t talk like “normal” people.
Oh heck, my meds.
It’s never too late to self care.
Bockstensmanen, a medieval person who happened to die in a bog which preserved his clothes (and more), clothes like hella comfy??
Like seriously. Comfy and warm wool clothes!
(yes this are pictures of his actual outfit, not reconstructed clothing. They were very well preserved in all except colour. The bog gave everything that yellow shade, i suspect)
Picture from: https://www.museumhalland.se/bockstensmannen/kladerna/
His kjortel (the clothing for his upper body)

He got a mantel that resemble a poncho

It goes around the entire body! So perhaps not quite a mantel but.
A got a little hood with a fashionedble long thingy at the end

Warm that too! There is no openings for wind or anything, so like. Just pull hood over head, get warm!

Warm socks! Gotta keep em feets warm (and just like in english, the swedish words for trousers, byxor, is in plural in its normal form, just because the medieval version of trousers consisted of two separate peices like here.
Somewhere, there should be something for hos upper legs but idk were that one is)
Anyway! I do think one can tell that keeping warm was an important part of the logic behind bockstensmannens clothing. Not odd that, when he lived in Scandinavia and all…
When we already at it, with listning his entire outfit. Here his this shoes

Reconstruction in how he might have looked like in life. The musuem points out, that his skull was very smashed when found, werehas it might be a bit so so with this dolls facial similiarity with bockstensmannen in life. And his hair colour we know not, the bog will colour most hair red with enough time.
But that hairstyle! That he really had! Bockstensmannen wore like Peak Fluffy Medieval Hair Fashion in life

The entire doll wearing bockstensmannens reconstructed clothing

@penny-anna it’s Pippin! Tall Pippin!
It took me many years to accept, to fully internalize that if someone can look at me and tell I’m trans, that’s not only okay—that’s beautiful, because trans is beautiful. I am not beautiful despite my big hands, my big feet, my wide shoulders, my height, my deep voice and all the things that make me beautifully and noticeably trans. I am beautiful because of those things.
i may not be beautiful but at least i know a lot of useless information
