I'm the same way, I don't get gender feels either 🖤🩶🤍💚🤍🩶🖤, 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.

I don't see downvotes here on Blåhaj, but I'll respond to rumors of them with LGBT+ memes.

Here it comes.

Lemmy.blahaj.zone has downvotes disabled but they're still allowed for some reason in the remote versions of communities hosted on it, and on accounts non native to blahaj they still do federate to other instances. Maybe it would be worth suggesting a change to this to disallow downvotes in remote copies of communties hosted by instances which disable them.
