What I wear isn't about my fucking sexuality. It's just what I'm comfortable in. In my case the main GNC thing is long hair which no one cares about anyway, but if I wanted to wear a skirt that's nobody else's business.
It is someone else's business though. It's up to the company to decide what is appropriate for the culture. I dont know where you get this idea that you can decide to wear a skirt and it's nobody's business, in a workplace.
Outside of work, wear what you want. I think you may have a bit of an ego issue here. You want everything in society to adapt to you, instead of you adapting to society. But you are the minority here man. You cant expect the world to turn to your tune and then get pissed and insulted when it doesn't.
At least you are accepted these days. If we were in the 1800s, who knows what would happen. Just have a bit of gratitude that society has at least learned to accept variances in sexuality now. Maybe in 20 years, you can wear a dress to work and nobody will bat an eye. But today... No way...
I'm pretty sure I could at my workplace actually lol. I mean people would be surprised and look at it a bit weird bc I just look goofy in a dress but not more than in any other context. It's called working with people that mind their own business and don't force their beliefs on others.
