in my hearts of hearts I so deeply believe in the importance of more women shopping in the men's clothing section. particularly gender conforming cis women. hear me out:
pockets. pockets pockets pockets. huge pockets. even in skinny jeans and short shorts. pockets are high priority in men's clothes, and designers are not willing to sacrifice them unless absolutely necessary. even the pajamas and swimsuits have pockets big enough to hold your phone. the audacity
better quality & value. men's clothing is consistently made to last longer. you will find better fabric quality, craftsmanship, and general durability in the men's section.
"men's" clothes might fit you better. clothing is way more gender neutral than you've been taught to think. for dresses and stuff you'll still need the women's section, but you'd be surprised at how well "men's" pants, shorts, shirts, and jackets can fit different bodies. in fact, I would go so far as to say that men's clothes are designed to fit a wider variety of body sizes and shapes than women's clothes. if you are one of the many many women who don't fit the ridiculous cookie cutter mold of modern women's fashion, you may very well have better luck in the men's section.
(this includes people with big chests! being designed for broader shoulders also translates into extra tiddy storage space.)
(plus, universal sizing systems based on your actual measurements.) (pro tip for shorter folks: cuffing or hemming pants is the easiest alteration in the world. you can literally just use safety pins.)
you can still find "feminine" things. it's becoming easier & easier to find "men's" clothes in the bright colors/patterns, tighter fits, and shorter hems traditionally associated with women's fashion. shorts are particularly great--you can find lots of mid-thigh versions that are almost identical to women's shorts, but with bigger pockets and a little more coverage.
(also, as most trans people are already aware, people are pretty eager to assume that everyone around them is cis. I guarantee that you'd be shocked at how many people won't realize you're wearing "men's" clothes. they'll just see a women wearing clothing that fits.)
bonus: it's easier to find stuff that's not see-through/doesn't show bra straps. the irony of this is deeply insulting.
in general clothing manufacturers feel able to pull way more bullshit on female customers. a great way to tell them to FUCK OFF is by spending your money elsewhere. your life will become much comfier in the process!
WARNING: consistently shopping in the men's section may accustom you to new levels of comfort and lack of body-conciousness, and make it difficult for you to return to shopping in the women's section. you may find yourself no longer able to put up with previously normalized levels of bullshit. you may find yourself sewing huge pockets into skirts & dresses, because that is the new baseline you demand of all your outfits. these symptoms may become even more pronounced if you start wearing supportive wide-toed walking shoes.

nightmare viewing the murder time three as little toys but more in like a little spoiled kid kinda way. because it would be funny and if you take into the account that he was like 6 before getting corrupted and do some mental loopholes it would be even funnier. like these are his dolls (killer dust and horror) and this is their barbie dreamhouse (his castle). they all have to stay in one room because nightmare needs to keep his toys in a toy box. the toys only ever come out when he wants to play but oh damn it they keep on breaking out!! silly toys,,, and then he locks them into the room again.
nightmare serves them food with plastic tea cups and plastic plates and there is no food. there is no tea. they have to imagine the food because dolls can't literally eat. there are food containers and stuff in the house but its all just a bunch of empty boxes. horror starts tweaking out after he scavenges the kitchen and finds a cereal box and milk carton that have NOTHING in it (why keep empty boxes?????)
they have to go where he wants them to go. nightmare gets to dress them up in whatever he wants because theyre his dolls they can wear anything he wants. it gets incredibly embarrassing when the trio is forced to wear pink pretty dresses and fight like that. or they have to go around the castle doing stupid fucking roleplays and it gets weird because theyre being forced to reenact a bullying scene and nightmare's giving them the death stare if they don't get it right (is this projection. this must be some form of coping mechanism dust theorizes)
and then you know nightmare's not exactly the best toy owner so he loses a few of his dolls here and there. maybe they get destroyed when he was playing a bit too rough with them! (killer dies in battle for like the 29th time) but its okay because he can just go back on down to the store (something new) and buy. wait no. steal another doll and then put it back in his dreamhouse and BOOM he has a full set again!! so sweet so cute. his dolls don't have consciousness what are you talking about theyre begging to be let go?? that's all just your imagination. what do you mean you're asking about the several slowly dying bodies with removed arms or legs in his dungeon. oh that's just where the broken but not yet destroyed toys go dw theyre fine its humane

I'll forever love the fact that throughout all of the story Senku, Taiju and Tsukasa wear dresses/ skirts
They are just too cool for gender expectations. Even when they have help from Yuzuriha who could make them any clothes they still wear dresses.
Senku's and Taiju's also have little bows on the belts like come on
Senku is also shown to use the dress to store stuff in season 1 when he tried to sneak in objects for the fights in the tournament.
We see other characters in the show with similar clothing but they almost always wear like shorts/ pants underneath but these three just don't and i respect it

Taking a pretty boy shopping and making him watch me try on outfit after outfit. Each of them highlighting a new part of my body. My hips, legs, ass, and chest... all of the brought to his attention through my changing clothing. As we go from shop to shop I would take my hand and lightly trace patterns on his body. Press into him as we go through the racks of clothing, pouting as I hold up another dress to try on.
Later, after my gentle touches have him all worked up, I would sneak him into one of the changing rooms. Pressing him against the wall I would kiss down his face and lightly bite his neck, feeling his body tremor as he suppressed his longing whimpers. Whispering in is ear that he must be quiet, I would take my hand and trail it up the inside of his thigh towards his crotch. By now, his face would be a deep pink desperate to go feral but all too aware of the fact that we where still in public.
Rubbing at his crotch I would coo in his ear about what a good boy he is helping me with my shopping. Holding my bags, telling me how pretty I look. Then, all of a sudden, I would pull myself away from his longing body, straighten up my clothing and say:
"Come on pet, we still have a few more shops to go to today. Then, I want to get coffee"
Once again leaving him panting and confused as he hazily follows me out of the store to where ever I want to go next.

honestly same, am kind of sick of people assuming if you like / dont mind your body you have to constantly 'show it off'. can't i just exist? big believer in women's rights to be comfortable and not feel compelled to shave / "show crack" (swimwear especially) !!
If you cover up, you're a prude and/or self-loathing. (and apparently, if you express that decreased sexualization for strangers is a fringe benefit, you're Dressing For The PatriarchyTM)
If you show skin, you're a slut and/or unintelligent. and...apparently ALSO dressing for the patriarchy!
Women really can't win. And people really don't get that the problem with concealing clothes of yore and of today is/was not the clothes themselves, but the fact that women HAD/HAVE to wear them or face social- and sometimes legal -consequences. Whereas now, we get the delightful situation of facing censure if we go "too far" one way or the other! Some governments- hi, France -actually mandate the amount of skin women and girls have to show at the beach or at school, especially women and girls of certain religions or ethnicities. While others demand that women cover up to their specifications, like in Iran. So fun, right ladies?!
(I've also heard some people say that women wearing long skirts is "unprofessional?" Look up "are maxi skirts professional" online and you'll find some surprising examples. A fair number of people seem to think there's MAXIMUM professional skirt length as well as a minimum. it's just bizarre)

. . .y'know, Jiro was prepared to strip down in that office and then go to the bathroom to shower and like
How frequently do Mortkranken students see bare ass Jiro walking down the halls before a shower
Because I doubt the bathroom was attached to that room??? Do the Mortkranken students just go about their day knowing Jiro might walk past bleeding and missing clothes and thinking nothing of it? Fortunately Jiro doesn't like unproductive things otherwise they might have conversations with him just. Hanging dong in the halls.
(Yuri running after Jiro with a towel or something SCREAMING IN PANIC PLEASE HAVE SOME DECENCY JIRO)
