Man bun and v-neck weren't helping the case.
I feel personally attacked
As well you should.
Damn. Are the cishets still going on about gatekeeping man buns and v-necks? I thought that tiresome rhetoric died off around 2010.
You have to insult people who have different head string and body fabric than you do. How else can you feel validated about your choice of head string and body fabric??
We're still calling everything gatekeeping? Surprised you didn't call them a grifter
I'm talking about overusing meme terms. Everything was gatekeeping for a while. Now everyone is a grifter. Even when it doesn't fit. What's a cishet?
This was a valid criticism in like, 2016
.. and in a particular culture, and for people who care about what others think
It's only valid because it worked and people were beaten to submission.
I like man buns! You better let me braid it once in a while though, while in an ADHD fuelled craze. V-necks though... never cared for the style, but you do you?
It's not even about style for me, my neck is just sensitive sometimes and the v style bothers me less usually.
Laughs in man bun
Why do you even care what someone else decides to look like?
