Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target federated instances' admins or moderators.

My autistic brain can't understand why people are so petty and weird about stuff like this. Why is it so hard for people to mind their own business?
Knowing that dress has these constructs associated means you can alter how others perceive you. Being autistic isn't ever easy but being a well-dressed autistic person buys you some grace. Derek Guy is a lib but he's got a lot of very useful posts about the history of clothing items and where their social associations came from, helpful if you're a gestalt learner.
