@alice@lgbtqia.space Kings once wore pink.
@divVerent @alice It's a whole thing - the Great Male Renunciation. Suddenly in the 18th century men switched from dressing colorfully and flamboyantly to wearing almost nothing but suits.
Thought to be because dressing flamboyantly was associated with aristocracy, which became unpopular after the American and French Revolutions.

@alice
I am desperate for colorful Big & Tall wear for husband. The man just wants to dress like a living crayon box, and all the affordable stuff is black, charcoal, and navy.

Like, bruh, you can wear colors—you'll still be just as cishet as you were yesterday.
@alice Black is the best color though

@alice NO! The only hererosexual colours are beige, brown, khaki, white and black, everything else is GAY!

I found a violently pink button-up shirt at a thrift store.I've never really been worried about whether my clothes were masculine or feminine, unless I was going to a party and wanted to look cute, but with this shirt I'm a bit worried about causing vision damage.

@alice
This was an epiphany in my late 20s/ early 30s. I'm still as cishet as I was, but I can just discard performative stuff if I don't enjoy them. -

Can confirm that this still works when a man's in his sixties.

@alice My son works at a deli, and he says the number of angry white people that come in is through the roof now.
They may have woke to the fact colors, weren't really their problem. -
@alice@lgbtqia.spac
> No! I must wear a spectrum of beige with vague US constitutional quotes surrounding a Punisher logo in order to make sure that my masculinity is on display!

I’ve been called gay on LinkedIn just because my brand/website uses a colorful muted palette.
Let’s leave aside the fact that “gay” is being used as an insult.

It's the ones that can leave cishet behind, but not the binary that bother me. Still trapped by dominance and power. -
