real talk tho ive seen ppl talk abt how long hair on men isn't intrinsically feminine & assuming so is racist can we get the same convo going for Black women w short hair can we start talking abt how short hair isn't intrinsically masculine or is that a step too far
responses like these irk me so bad like oh u people really think femininity & masculinity exist in a raceless vacuum & that a racialized woman complaining about being labelled as masculine by white standards or a racialized man objecting to having white femininity projected onto him are just whiners or even bigots themselves.... like u really do think ur viewpoint is neutral huh. basically telling racialized people to quit whining & accept being misgendered + mislabelled + misperceived by white ppl w immense social power over u bc the right to have your identity respected ends the instant u have an ounce of melanin apparently..... fuck off & leave BIPOC aloneeee
