wifeposting (I'm a wifeguy) (but a dyke enby)Rewifing from last thread, last night I cut my wifey's hair into a little chin length bob, which is adorable, she looks great. The way you can tell that I have Fake Autism and she has Real Organic Autism is she prefers her hair shorter (equally for style and utility/sensory reasons) whereas I just grew mine way out and it's annoying.

The first time we tried having me cut her hair, it went atrociously because I freaked out worrying I had cut it too short. (And it did end up very short) This time it apparently went pretty well, we pinned a towel around her shoulders and I just went at it. My knuckles are knobbly so I have trouble keeping hair between my fingers, but she seems very satisfied with the cut, even if it was a bit uneven and needed some revisions. I erred toward cutting not-enough over too-much.

Should do more "girls' night"-y stuff like that I guess, hanging out styling our hair or painting nails or whatever kind of rocks. Both intimate and relaxing. Thank fuck I'm not a man or I would be the most ANNOYING WIFEGUY bocchi-cry

I did not expect to have my (possible) autism validated by this post, but there you have it.

Uh I replied to the wrong thing. Do you mean about hair lengths? lol.

It's very common for autistic people of any gender, I think, to wear their hair whatever way is least overstimulating. I'm just weird!

Yea that's what I meant, I like short hair.

I liked your old comment too though!

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

That one was about my other post kobeni-sweat but ty, and also based short hair gang!

I had your post before you edited it, but then I upvoted it before I read it and it changed. Why did this happen twice to me just now boohoo

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago

Uh I'm not upset at you, soz. If you check this I ported the edited comment into it pretty much. If you so desire to know how I feel about my junk ✨

Weirdly enough I’m kinda the opposite: I don’t like getting my hair cut (especially when it was shorter and closer to my scalp) and don’t like going to the barber’s/salon and talking to people so partly because of that I just started growing it out so I wouldn’t have to get it cut as much

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

Oh this is cool too, I never considered this! Neat!

I'm avoidant of people too, being autistic and I get social anxiety.

Bad early transition experience

spoilerI had a very bad experience early transition getting my blood taken where the nurse suspected me being trans or fuck knows what went through her head, but began trying to look around my head at different angles to see if she could work out what I was or something or if she could get that gotcha, it was very unnerving so the thought of sitting in a similar position to have my hair cut to get that kind of experience again put me off a lot..

I taught myself how to cut my own hair and my wife helps out now too so not all bad but that was the main motivator
