im rehearsing my gender
I have gender tryouts tomorrow.
I'm hardstuck plat in my gender
good luck!
Got me one of them no-perform genders through the union
Going to the gender picket to protest big woke until I get a raise
My parents paid my way through theater academie and i feel bad when I don't put my degree to use.
Was going to make a joke about parents forcing gender roles on you, but that's probably super relevant
My parents were actually pretty chill about me running around in skirts and eyeliner. I lucked out and got the "be polite to people, respect people's differences, don't fight unless you have to, and also here's how to use a power drill 3,000 different ways" masculinity instead of strict adherence to normative gender roles.
Gender is a nightmare from which I am trying to awaken
Gender isn’t real, it can’t hurt you
My rack looks great in a dress
I'm trying not to! .
My boymoding is purely performative, but it's still a 50/50 whether I get Ma'am-ed at the supermarket. Beyond that, I'm still more of an understudy...
Judith Butler made me
all the world's a stage 🎭💃
i dont know enough smart people to stop playing Traumatizing Pretend
Decades of social conditioning has altered (read: harmed) my grey matter to a near permanent degree
It's fun to be a girl.
It's my favorite play and I want to be my favorite character, of course!
One day I'll be the suave, confident twink sidekick to the buff himbo top main character that I'll end up smooching at the end.
I preform masculinity solely because it it slightly less work
because gender is performing me, so I am only returning the favor.
Follow up question, where are you performing gender? Community theater? Improv group? Comedy club?
When I first heard the phrase "performing gender" my first thought was that it sounded like a pain in the ass and I didn't want to be on stage
It's just easier going straight than turning to the side once you're going full speed
For the internet and the credit score
I just do it out of convenience. It is really nice to roll out of bed, shower so that I don't smell, throw on pants and a t-shirt, and comb my hair, then call that good. Bed to doing whatever I need to in < 20 min. I couldn't function if I had to pay any attention to style, appearance, or skincare.

badposting is a comm where you post badly
This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.
Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?

- Do not post good posts.
- Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
- Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
