  1. Actually, in traditional Maasai culture, men wear long hair and women have short hair. It's done in order to resemble lions.
  2. If he's deliberately avoiding you, it seems very unlikely that he'd be interested in restarting your relationship. Don't sabotage what you already have over an unlikely possibility.
  3. Here's an article that might be helpful for you: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/dissociation
  4. Honestly, I think it's very similar to how people of other orientations have to deal with heteronormativity. There's this sense of trying to live in a world that wasn't built with people like you in mind.
  5. It's okay if it takes you some time to figure out your gender. Introspection and figuring out what you want in life can be complicated.
  6. It's fine if you want to consider yourself non-binary- there aren't any Official Requirements for being NB enough to use the label. It's just an umbrella category for people who aren't really on board with being considered "male" or "female". Still, you don't need to be trans/NB to reject traditional gender roles!
  7. Took a nap today and had a dream that my dog was covered in mud, but I didn't have any water or towels, so I had to use screen cleaning cloths and cola.

  8. There's a number of NB characters in Steven Universe, as well as a canonically aro/ace side character and several sapphic relationships.
  9. Here's a fantasy webcomic with multiple NB characters (one main cast member, plus various side/background folks): https://www.vaingloriouscomic.com/
  10. "Pet" is French for "fart". Also, take a look at this Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brand_blunder "In 2019, Mushkegowuk Council Grand Chief told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that Heinz's latest 'Mayochup' product means "shit-face" in Cree."
  11. I understand how you feel. As a non-binary person, I've always had a rough time with social expectations around clothes and cosmetics. Being shoved into a dress for formal occasions was hell for me. Clothes shopping with my parents was also less than enjoyable, since I knew that wandering over to the men's side of a shop wouldn't go over well. Oddly enough, I've gotten more comfortable with some traditionally feminine things as I've come to understand my identity more. I'm fine wearing skirts on hot days, for one thing- they're just more physically comfortable when you live somewhere with humid summers.
  12. Final installment: https://topographicdungeonmap.wordpress.com/2021/06/13/pride-month-art-project-part-iii/
  13. Part II: https://topographicdungeonmap.wordpress.com/2021/06/11/pride-month-art-project-part-ii/
  14. Misread a sign for the "Artisan Food Traders" (a new grocery store in my hometown) as "African Food Crusaders" while I was out shopping.

  15. Assuming that money is no object: I'd have loads and loads of roses, since they're one of my favourite flowers, and they bloom during outdoor-wedding season. The dinner would be vegetarian- probably different kinds of curry, since that's easy for a caterer to make for a large number of people. I think that instead of a cake, I'd have one of those elaborate tiered towers of pastries, so guests could choose between different desserts. I'd hate to have the highlight of the meal be something that someone's allergic to, or just can't stand. I'd rather wear a suit than a dress. I think I'd go for an old-fashioned tailcoat, like you see in BBC dramas. Instead of having a single colour theme, I think I'd decorate the place in rainbows.
  16. To celebrate Pride, I'm making a series of flag photocollages using images of gemstones and other minerals. All of these images are free for you to use as profile pics, etc. Part 1: Aro: Rainbow: Ace: Bi: LGBT+ POC: Trans: NB:
  17. I saw some elaborate, almost heraldic designs people were making with pride flags, so I made a flag combining some of my identity labels (aromantic+agender).

  18. Traits/types of people I find aesthetically attractive: - Deep voices (bass/low alto) - Grey eyes - Strong-but-chubby body type - Tall women (especially muscular ladies)
  19. In general, I'm not all that interested in stories where the main plot is a romance, although there are a few exceptions. If it's just one plot thread alongside many other elements in the story, that's more interesting to me. To be perfectly honest, I'm a bit weirded out by the dynamics of some straight romances in media. A lot of the pairings in movies and TV seem unhealthy/unstable/forced in one way or another. In real life, I think romantic love can be a wonderful thing ... for other people.
