Stop using women's shoes, dude

Lol, I buy shoes in the men's section, too. It's a lot easier to find a size 8/9 in men's than a size 11/12 in women's.

Next time you're going to say you're a woman! God forbid!

Buy Vans, they're unisex and look hella good on everyone. I'm a man who wears the platform Vans. They're dope.

I bought shoes in the boys' section pretty regularly, as a girl, until the boys' shoe size growth dramatically outpaced girls'. So you could not shop in the men's section because their smallest size is one half or one size (or more) above yours.

while i love how pretty clothes are when they're marketed to women, i'm actually more often disappointed by, like, how they oftentimes (not every time but too many times) seem flimsier, and cost more, and are literally less functional and practical. like, what the heck is WRONG with them going out of their way to make pants that only have the appearance of pockets but no ACTUAL POCKETS?! i like pockets ;~; i can keep my stuff in them...

so sometimes i wonder if it'd just be better if people could be somehow convinced to stop enabling such pointlessly gendered design that puts an entire dang half of the whole population at a disadvantage. i think male-identified individuals should have pretty clothes too and it's sad that there's a social stigma about it

They are flimsier. Look up "fast fashion".

Frequently buying new clothes is pushed on girls from multiple social and economic directions, including ones that really are conspiracies. For example, an industry working together (alongside partner industries) to make their clothes degrade faster so that they need to be replaced that much more often.

planned obsolescence, my nemesis 😭

Do you consider yourself a Tomboy? Just curious.

That word is used to describe female children, not adult women.

Sorry, English is not my first language. But did you understand what I meant?
