dumbthingssocialjusticeblogssay: Oh, what a rebel. You’re so unique, honestly. You’re really smashing the gender binary.  No. You’re actually perpetuating gender stereotypes. The hair flower, makeup, and sunglasses are “femme”, while the rest of the things in your list are “masculine”. By wearing all of those things and calling yourself someone who challenges the gender binary, you’re still playing into the stereotypes, because you’re implying certain things are inherently masculine and feminine (and that by wearing both masculine and feminine clothing, you’re being ~genderfuck~). Otherwise, there would be no need for this post. Those things would just be things—not masculine or feminine things like you have implied them to be.  How would you actually challenge the gender binary? How about realizing that clothes have nothing to do with gender, and that these “acts of rebellion” are anything but useful? LOL. Exactly.
