I'm the same way, I don't get gender feels either πŸ–€πŸ©ΆπŸ€πŸ’šπŸ€πŸ©ΆπŸ–€, and I would very much agree with most of this except the part about having contrasting colors. I do think that having bright colors in contrast with darker ones does look cool, even if it is less practical.

I'm also not really a big fan of makeup, it feels very weird. Maybe I'd be okay with it if I wanted/needed to look a certain way for some kind of performance or special event but otherwise I'd just rather keep my face clean.

Edit: Okay who downvoted this, someone upset that I'm unapologetically Agender? Well get used to it bitch I'm not sorry about who I am, and certainly not in LGBTQ friendly spaces.

Not the downvoter. If I had to guess, maybe they had strong feelings against

  • presenting your personals before the point (as in off-topic/look at me)
  • pushing the agender agenda
  • emoji usage on Lemmy
  • they just hate LGBTQA people, who knows

People will downvote and block nowadays rather than give feedback and discuss. Probably also an effect of information overdosing on the Internet.

Probably very likely the last one, I do know that downvoting people for being openly queer is unfortunately common. It was a big problem on Reddit. I once saw a person in r/SwitchPirates being downvoted because she was a trans girl who was openly trans.

Also I feel like the second one is the same as the last one since there really isn't an Agender, NonBinary, Gay, or Trans agenda, that's just queerphobes who want to make out Queer people to be some kind of bad guys to fight against, rather than people who just want to exist and be recognized.
