For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

For real, people got to let go of "gender" as perceived by societal roles/ideas aka the views strangers and how they identify you.

Everyone should be rocking dresses in hot times! They are the closest you can get to the pleasantness of rocking it all balls out around the house, but with some sun protection.

I strongly encourage everyone to take up a sarong. And if you think that's "faggy" you can take it up with Polynesian warriors. Who, I'll remind you, were the only ones to actually fucked British Colonialism.

I embraced dresses this summer, and will never look back.

Just around the house, mind, I’m not that brave. But fucking hell it was SO NICE getting a breeze up around my bits on the hottest days. Walking down stairs, the skirt billowing out and filling with cool air. Shit’s like a drug.

As a bonus, my wife thinks it’s hot.

So yeah, I’ve spent a bit on Vinted these past few months buying pretty skirts and dresses and sure, I’ve still got a beard and am kinda hairy, but I feel nice when I’m wearing them.

I wear kilts every day. I gotta tell you I am an old man and no looker for sure but women, young and old, compliment me all the time now. Even if I'm grubby from the garden or some project as I often am. It feels nice to be noticed like that for an old fella like me. My wife also digs it.
