A painting of King Louis XIV of France. He's wearing an opulent outfit made of furs, lace, and gold. He's also wearing white buckled shoes with a high red heel.

A close-up of the white buckled shoes with a high-red heel. There appears to be a red lace at the top of the shoes.

Fashion influencer Luka Sabbat wearing a black leather suit and black boots with a very high heel.

James Baldwin wearing a white, short-sleeved button-down shirt, white cotton pants, and brown Cuban heeled side-zip boots. He also has chunky gold and turquoise jewelry (bracelet and ring).

We should first recognize that gender codes are socially constructed. Clothing is not inherently masculine or feminine—codes are contextual and can change over time. Aristocratic men once wore bright red heels. Then they became womenswear until that notion was challenged again.

A screenshot from Twitter. The original tweet reads: "Rapper Kenderick Lamar wore size 29 women's jeans to Super Bowl LIX." The tweet garnered over a thousand replies, most negative. I (Derek Guy) screenshotted that tweet and wrote: "so funny to see history repeat itself. men who wear slim fit and stretch denim—both of which were once considered strictly for women—criticizing kendrick for wearing flares bc they were on the women's aisle. in ten years, you'll be in flares clutching pearls about something else" Then another user replied to my tweet, saying: "Wearing women’s clothes has never been in style, homo."

Not true. I'll give you some examples of when styles crossed over from womenswear to menswear, and how men have worn straight-up womenswear or just feminine styles in cool ways. 🧵

#DisabledCreators of all stripes!

Let’s work together in creating, marketing, selling, etc — @barrowmember.bsky.social and I are gauging interest in a #CripCoop — starting with collecting a list of wants and needs, which then would match with another coop members skills/abilities.

Interested?

Telling someone who's autistic to ignore a sensory trigger is unlikely to help them.

Many autists report that their brain can't filter out triggers in the way NT's can.

We wish we could ignore them but we just can't.

Imagine telling someone to ignore a fire in a room. That's how it feels.

I haven't told anyone I'm here. I probably should? But then again, I kind of like the idea of not being known for a bit.

open world games taught me that I’d rather pick flowers for 80 hours than finish anything important.
