Clothing actually is inherently gendered. “male” clothing is built for male bodies, with broader shoulders and non-defined hips. Women’s clothing has to take into account a larger bust and hips and smaller waist. 
lovewomanshate and tea-and-biscourse are both totally correct on this one, and you identifying as non-binary does not validate your opinions over theirs. 
the pan label isn't valid & completely pointless
You know what? …. Tea time ☕️I don’t think I’ve ever discussed my thoughts on pansexuality on this blog, but let’s do it. It’s bisexual, y’all. Bisexuality is inclusive of all people. There is absolutely no use or need for a label like pansexual. I have a few theories as to why a person might call themselves pan instead of bi: 1) You have a fundamental misunderstanding of bisexuality (I.e. you think bisexual only refers to attraction to cis men and women) and you think “bi means two so this doesn’t include nb people”, which isn’t true.Basically, you think pansexuality is woke!bisexuality
2) If the above is true, this might be as well- you’re transphobic, and you probably don’t even realize it. You don’t see trans men and women as real men and women. You see them as separate genders.
3) You want a fancy, special orientation
4) You don’t want to label yourself bi because you’re internalizing negative stereotypes about bisexuality, I.e. we’re going through a phase, we’re attention seeking, promiscuous, more likely to cheat, etc. Or, “bi women will inevitably settle down with a man, and bi men are just closeted gay men.”
Number four was the case for me. It took me a couple years to get comfortable calling myself bi. Even after I stopped hiding my attraction to women, I didn’t “come out” or call myself bi. If people knew, it was because of my actions or context clues. My friends knew, because I would openly date women, get a girl’s number, or maybe go home with her. But I wouldn’t bring it up. I was convinced that no one would take me seriously if I just said “I’m bisexual”. I tossed around labels like pan or queer in my mind. I made hetero/homoflexible jokes when asked about my orientation. But eventually I came around and I realized how silly I was being.
So the moral of the story is -Bisexuality is inclusive of trans and non binary people
- Bisexuals aren’t confused, slutty, untrustworthy attention seekers
- the “bi” in bisexual doesn’t necessarily mean two
- in the words of anon, “the pan label isn’t valid & is completely pointless”
- you’re not pan, you’re bi

Tess Holiday is actually one of the most famous spokespeople for the movement. It’s a toxic and dangerous movement, and most people promoting it are far less rational than you are. I wasn’t lumping you in with them, I was stating what the movement actually stands for. 
People who are against fat acceptance confuse the shit out of me.
They clearly have no clue what obesity actually looks like, they assume they know how hormonal disorders work when a lot of them don’t have it, they assume that healthy weights correlate with clothing sizes (it doesn’t and clothing sizes aren’t even consistent from store to store, and are ever shifting too), they assume that everyone can afford to eat vegan or health foods or whatever, and most important, they don’t know what fat acceptance actually is.
Fat acceptance isn’t “being complacent with being overweight”, it means you don’t shame fucking strangers over their size and make assumptions that because they’re fat that they aren’t trying to take care of themselves.
Fat acceptance is knowing the different between being fat and being obese, and not assuming because someone is a little chunky that it means they only eat McDonald’s and don’t excersize.
Fat acceptance is knowing there are three different body types and that some people are more likely to gain weight from less food and some people are less likely to gain weight from more food.
Fat acceptance isn’t shaming teenage girls for not being able to fit into a size 2 and making them think their worth correlates to their weight, making them think they have to diet before their body is even finished growing.
Fat acceptance is realizing not everyone can excersize the same amounts or the same way because of physical limits like actual disabilities.
Just admit you have no sympathy for others, and that you judge others solely on outward appearance and assumptions based on it.

The Left won’t just let non-white people lean Right, will they? Surprise, if a POC supports Trump, they’re just doing it for attention! There’s no way a POC would support Trump otherwise, is there? Like people of colour being an incredibly diverse population of individuals with many different and complex political ideologies?
What are your thoughts on Kanye West, a person of color who supports Trump?
The thing about Kanye West is that he has always been 100% about fame, attention and popularity. I am pretty sure that is what drives all his behaviour in the public eye. That is why he has associated himself with the Kardashian-Jenner family who are all also 100% about fame, attention and popularity. Being a POC who supports Trump is definitely more shocking and attention-grabbing which really fits into line with all his other previous behaviour. But on the other hand, the Kardashians have also described themselves as ‘fiscally conservative’ and we all know that is pretty much code for ‘I would support same-sex marriage but I also want to preserve the wealth of the top 1%’. So I can definitely see how Kanye West or anyone who is a multi-millionaire would be find themselves attracted to supporting the Republican Party. 
Kanye West has really transformed himself into a show pony within the last decade. He has said many times that he wants to be so famous that he is written down in history. I can imagine that he would sell his soul to put it figuratively to achieve that level of fame.
I believe it might be tied into his intentions to run for president (?) and we all know the Republican Party has a history of letting unqualified people who have no experience as a politician or a public servant to run for office.  
But it gets really messy when you mix in celebrities like Kanye West whose whole career and source of income revolves around being in the public eye and being entertaining. The 21st century has brought us a new wave of celebrities who are famous for making  their own personal lives a source of entertainment.

The double standards are INSANE. Trump is getting flack for so many things Obama was doing, that the media wouldn’t even report on while Obama was in office (like putting children in cages at the border, for instance. CNN et al knew about that under Obama, and didn’t care). 
Listen there are very legitimate reasons to dislike Trump but at this point when I see people bitching about every time the guy blinks I just stop caring about anything he does or says

Except the fat acceptance movement isn’t just about what you described. It’s also largely about spreading pseudo-science and lies designed to make people feel better about themselves. And then you have the “body-positive” wingnuts like Tess Holiday who think they’re entitled to redefine how others see beauty by declaring others are bad people if they don’t find her attractive. 
People who are against fat acceptance confuse the shit out of me.
They clearly have no clue what obesity actually looks like, they assume they know how hormonal disorders work when a lot of them don’t have it, they assume that healthy weights correlate with clothing sizes (it doesn’t and clothing sizes aren’t even consistent from store to store, and are ever shifting too), they assume that everyone can afford to eat vegan or health foods or whatever, and most important, they don’t know what fat acceptance actually is.
