What's Bothering You? (The thread about what is bothering you.)

[katushkin]

Blame the hoarders and black market.

There are a couple artisans I would have thrown big money at to support them but can't even get the time of day, you gotta be in the right clique I guess.

I'm over it.

Yeah. I'm definitely not at the stage where I am over it.

It kinda sucks that it's turned into something so amazing when someone sells an artisan for close to retail and doesn't charge hundreds for one. That's how I have my only clack, but it sucks you can't just buy an artisan nowardays.

Dude, join the fight.  Co-ed bathrooms and locker rooms.


The whole "privilege" thing does tend to push people away and not really encourage discussion.  I know I tend to shut down the minute someone says privilege since they're usually someone who thinks in black and white and is just there to yell, not to discuss. 

That said, to be fair, that's not a liberal issue, but one for trans-persons, regardless of their political leaning.  It is something that causes stress and discomfort to people.  Many universities, gyms, and other public places are enacting more inclusive policies to try and address the underlying issue.  It's particularly sensitive for high school level kids since there already are so many issues about shame, body image, sexual identity, and so one being worked through at that age.

Our society is so selective about which of these issues to care about at a particular moment, it confuses me.  We care so much about not offending people of certain skin colors, genders, etc yet no one thinks twice about staring at a tall person and asking them if they play basketball.  And nothing is built for tall people.  When do we get our "equality" and "fairness"?

Haha.  Yeah there are big and tall stores...that still never have my size in stock.

You could at least, technically speaking, purchase clothes that would fit your body, right?  Because taller people would have been your size at one point in their life, so the clothes exist.  Unless I'm wrong here!  But I find it to be a different kind of challenge when the size simply doesn't exist, except for the extremely limited selection found online or in specific stores.  It makes it very difficult to not look goofy (nothing is fitted properly).
