#and wishes the world was more genderneutral and trans friendly

[samaspic31]

Shallow attempts of non binary inclusivity are so fucking frustrating.

I was browsing this hairstylist's website that proclaims to be "for him, her and them", markets everywhere to queer, trans and nb friendly and that amiddle aged friend said was very welcoming as a newly out nb, not pushy and let them decide the haircut they actually wanted, and yet. All the listings are gender segregated, pink tax in full effect (almost double the price for LESS time on the same hairlength). Not that i would personally ever go to a salon ever again, peak gender stereotypes enforcing tool, i do mine and all my friends' hair, but i was considering looking an apprenticeship as hairstylist after finishing art studies and this just. broke my stride.

if even the inclusive ones are so bad wtf am i even gonna do the truly radical queer people i love to do the hair of are all just as broke as me and i don't even want to make them pay, good hair care and fitting hairstyle are so fundamental to mental health, it should reimbursed by the state (im barely joking, it's a good thing recently state funded aesthetic care programs have been put in place to help familial carers' health) but noooooo capitalism. fucking. hell
