I was reading a book on social life of the upper-middle class and new rich of the American 1920s and realized so many things we now do proudly were considered socially taboo back then. This was especially the case for clothing, makeup, women in certain public spaces, etc. What do you think will be different in the 2120s? Or maybe even the next 50 years?

    True. We should just get rid of gender because it’s all just a social construct anyways so it’s not even real. The world would be better off if we just got rid of gender and then you can wear whatever clothing you want without it being “closed off” because you don’t identify as that gender.

      Okay, please don’t attack me if this is wrong to say, but I wonder sometimes if someone of the people questioning their gender just want to wear / like the things the opposite gender wears / likes without being attacked for it. Like if we just un-gender all the things, some people wouldn’t feel “trans” because they can outwardly represent themselves however they want without people judging them. (note: I am in no way trying to illegitimize anyone’s trans-ness).
