@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.

Great Male Renunciation - Wikipedia

(en.wikipedia.org)

Thought to be because dressing flamboyantly was associated with aristocracy, which became unpopular after the American and French Revolutions.

Oh, then my favourite colour, morally gray, is gay also!

Maybe some colour accessories would help?

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.

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.

How else will people know I can't get an erecting without the help of internet porn? - same idiots.

It's okay to see a doctor if this pertains to you.

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