Are there stereotypes of NB folks? 1. We have Black Beauty and Flicka to thank for those stereotypes. 2. Yeah, that we're attention seeking 12 year old AFAB girls on Tumblr with too much time on our hands Link to post Share on other sites

Aquilina Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Despite that I am an alpha girl, I love being feminine. I love cute, princess-y stuff and lolita fashion (especially sweet and classical lolita; I am now a beginner in lolita fashion as well). One of my favourite colours is pink. I also don't mind watching make up videos and wearing make up. Besides, I like cooking, especially baking. I often make cookies, puddings and cakes for my family Link to post Share on other sites
McKinley Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Hmm, let's see... I love cars. I like building/fixing things. I'm not an emotional person. Also, I'm the one people go to when they can't open a jar or need a spider removed from the room. Link to post Share on other sites

Chorvus Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I don't like watching sports, I guess? (Except football, but not American football, because what even is going in there) And... I don't really embrace this stereotype, but I am pretty clueless when it comes to how machines work (everything from cars to cell phones to computers). I don't know if there are really any "positive" gender stereotypes I fall into? (Maybe the one where my appreciation of something I'm a fan of expresses itself as something creative instead of intimate factual knowledge about the subject? I think knowing a bunch of facts is attributed more to male fans of a thing, whereas creative use of it to make art of any form is associated more with female fans?) Link to post Share on other sites

ALWAYS -Love me some video games in the evening -i'm gonna be an engineer! -i love tech and engineering. Seriously. I want to be the first person to ever build true artificial consciousness, that's how far this goes. -Formula 1, MotoGP, Top Gear, Grand Tour, Wheeler Dealers, Gold Rush... the list goes on. -Discovery channel is my shit. in the middle -white -afab -they/them pronouns -short hair -wants to dye their hair bright...??

Kelly Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I admit that I like to wear dresses and skirts, and usually dress like that for work. If a guy did that, he might not get on with colleagues, I guess. Or perhaps (hopefully) it would be OK. In the 1990s, when I lived in Texas, our favorite restaurant had a waiter who always wore a skirt. It was OK with me, and really, just about everyone else, too. I think that I have some male stereotypes, too. I studied physics, and basically do physics at work, yet am employed with the title of "engineer" (that is a male-dominated title, yes?). I also love math. Link to post Share on other sites

fiѕh Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 fishnet gloves are horrible on ANYONE tho ...although, once upon a time I had pretty cool ones, but in my defense, they weren't really fishnet wait this thread had a topic gender stereotypes I willingly embrace - wearing the figurative pants...

Antihero. Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Gender stereotypes that apply to me, let’s see.... -being dominant and in charge -being assertive -being ambitious and competitive -being a rational and logical thinker -love being strategic and playing strategy games -good with numbers - not being emotional, I never cry - practical mind -a massive nerd -love science -likes vehicles; tanks and cars for example and did I mention tanks and ach ja tanks -interested in military history - I really can’t cook. You don’t want to know what happens when I try because I’m like that: -visual nature - I collect stuff -reading manga/comic books, playing video games -being a metalhead - loathing the colour pink. If someone tried to attach something pink onto me I’d turn into the Hulk and smash everything *innocent face* -can’t do multitasking. -I’m a dog person and think dogs are much better than cats.
