My point is that we don’t want to think of eachother as sexual beings at work. We just want to do work and get out of there.
Okay so tell the cis people to stop wearing gendered clothing and talking about their wives/husbands etc.
Cisnormativity is shoved down all our throats every day.
You can’t get it all your way and say it’s too much when someone else does it.

When almost all people have a cisnormative sexuality, you can’t act surprised when your sexuality is not appreciated at work. And it’s not being suppressed to not be allowed to display it at work either. It would disturb the entire workplace. That’s why you get discriminated. And you know this, but you still try to force your will, and expect others to accept your sexuality in their face when they don’t want to see it.

What I wear isn’t about my fucking sexuality. It’s just what I’m comfortable in. In my case the main GNC thing is long hair which no one cares about anyway, but if I wanted to wear a skirt that’s nobody else’s business.

It is someone else’s business though. It’s up to the company to decide what is appropriate for the culture. I dont know where you get this idea that you can decide to wear a skirt and it’s nobody’s business, in a workplace.

I’m pretty sure I could at my workplace actually lol. I mean people would be surprised and look at it a bit weird bc I just look goofy in a dress but not more than in any other context. It’s called working with people that mind their own business and don’t force their beliefs on others.
