tbh the very first 'mens' vest to ever be tailored to a 'woman' by disneyland's costuming department being a thing in my closet with my name sewn inside it is a very cool feeling... i fought hard for that
#a few years before they had started to tailor vests to trans men who got their gender marker legally changed but Only if legally changed#but i was forced to wear a skirt for years and years bc im 'just' butch#i didnt talk abt it much so as to not doxx myself but now that im gone from that hell hole anyway..#back in sep 2020 they finally decided to take a small step toward treating human beings as diverse individuals#by dropping all if their sex-based uniform policies as well as allowing us to have visible tattoos* and piercings*#*within certain size limits and placement constraints that were still not remotely inclusive of many cultures#and this also freed us to wear mens or womens costume pieces the problem being#the smallest vest they carry is a size 30 broad shoulders and im a twinky little 26#but that shouldnt be an issue because for ages theyve always custom tailored costume pieces to people with specific needs#including plenty of men who were too big or small for the stock size run of 30-56#but they did not want to make one for me#and refused until they were threatened with being fired#which took 2 month of me fighting with multiple departments' managers and struggling to get hr and the union to work with me#i had one manager who was very excited for me and really had my back bless her specifically but everyone else can choke#and then i got bullied out of the fantasyland area within 4 months of that and never wore my vest again :)#and the adventurland costume was just a baggy button up so i didnt need anything custom fit there#but i never returned that vest they literally wouldve incinerated it once i quit
