#sterotypes

I'm so tired of sterotypes!!!!

so for anyone who needs to hear this

yes you can be blonde and smart

yes you can be ginger not be 'souless'

yes you can be brunette and dumb

yes you can like guys and not have to dress feminine

yes you can dress feminine and not like guys

being a femboy doesn't make you s2xu1l

being latina doesn't make you s2xu1l

being asian doesn't make you s2xu1l

yes you can be a male and cry

yes you can be a female and act cold

yes you can be a female and be a doctor

yes you can be a house husband and still be contributing to the family

being asian doesn't automatically make you good at math

being american doesn't make you stupid or obese

there are so many more!!! can we all just stop labeling people and assuming stuff based off something as simple as someone's gender or hair color?

it is shocking the amount of people that consider it progressive to be blatantly racist and xenophobic. like so many people forget that you can criticize a government without taking it out on innocent people from that country.

yes, israel has committed war crimes. that doesn’t make it okay to say “all jews are zionist” or “any civilian casualties on israel’s side is good actually”. at this point, so many people hate israel more than they care about palestine.

yes, japan still hasn’t issued a proper apology for their atrocities during ww2 and they do have systemic problems with brushing SA under the rug. That doesn’t mean it’s okay to say “liking anything japanese makes you a bad person” or “all japanese people are pedophiles”.

and a lot of these things people criticize other countries for, are things that apply to their own country too. yet it’s frames completely differently. using america as an example: “korea has a toxic celebrity culture and beauty standard” so does america (and most the world for that matter). “japan has such high rates of CSA” so does america, even counting for the estimated unreported cases of both countries. “israel is committing war crimes” america is helping israel commit those crimes.

all of those things are worth criticizing but it crosses the line of criticism into outright hatred when someone starts generalizing civilians for the government’s actions. other countries aren’t monoliths. There are some that agree with their government some that disagree like every other place in the world. if it’s unfair to say “all americans and pedophilic war criminals who all deserve to die” because of the actions trump is doing, then don’t say that about citizens of other countries. if you don’t agree with every single decision your government makes, then you can’t stereotype everyone from another country as supporting every decision their government makes.

Not all trans masc people want to dress feminine and that's okay.

Not all trans masc people have "silly" interests like frogs, mushrooms, & sharks, and that's okay.

Not all trans masc people have fluffy, dyed hair, and that's okay.

Not all trans masc people bind their chest or want to, and that's okay.
