I can’t believe you’re making me weigh in on the stupid dress thing

So a lot of talk on Gemini lately from guys who wanna appropriate women’s gender expression and I didn’t wanna get into it but as usual we can count on a fresh perspective from Librehacker.

He writes:

Likewise, the connotations of styles may change with time. Today in the USA, it is easy for women to wear pants and still appear feminine, as opposed to 200 years ago.

Yeah. How do you think that happened?

The style connotations were dragged kicking and screaming into the century of the fruitbat, that’s how.

Women were actually arrested in the US for wearing pants. It was actually illegal.

So I guess the moral is: be the change you wanna see in the world!
