hijo de la luna ;

female ;
- sway your hips as you walk, talk with your hands a lot
- contour your nose and jaw to a softer, rounder edge
- make your eyes larger and feminine by adding white to your waterline, winged eyeliner on the top
- high waisted skirts are your friend, that paired with an oversized tee thats tucked in will give the allusion of a feminine body
- avoid slim fit tops / super skinny jeans
- peplum tops are really nice to give the illusion of curves
- cross your legs when you sit, try to take up as little space as possible-- ie only one seat on buses instead of having your legs spread out for three seats
- push your shoulders forward + down while keeping your spine straight
- buy a bra from walmart + breast form from target
- when standing, shift your weight to one hip + lean

---

male ;
- push your shoulders up and back as you walk, take long strides and walk straight
- contour your jaw and cheekbones to be sharper + squarer
- to make your eyes look more sunken in you can contour along your nose and below your eyebrow bone
- if you have thicker thighs, cargo pants or shorts will do well to hide that
- take up a lot of space by sitting with your legs wide open
- try not to ramble as much when you talk out loud
- when standing distribute your weight evenly

tbh i'm not the ~*best~* person to ask bc my coping mechanisms are actual shit but uhm

---

- make a joke out of it: half the time even if it's scaring the shit out of me i'll be like "ayy lmao at least i don't sound like a scene kid fam(:" [this is a specific reference so if u know me well enough its funny]

---

- ignore it: i distract myself w my phone or my ipad, i have a lot of what i call 'quick games' ie games that dont take a shit ton of time to load and that are quick, dont require thinking but require my full attention. crossy road, dumb ways to die, 1010! and fruit ninja are my faves

---

- learn how to calm yourself: panic attacks are kind of unpreventable, but learning "aftercare" for it is all the difference in thr world-- i like watching cooking shows and drawing, so find what works for you

---

- find grounding techniques: having ways to remind yourself that hallucinations are just that-- hallucinations-- is really important. for me, being otherkin is one way i ground myself and my cats also ground me-- i personally believe bad spirits can't be in the same space as cats, so having a cat with me reminds me that i'm safe and protected

---

so it's honestly a very personal thing, just find what works for you~

... and you do realize that results in several cases in civil court or even federal court, depending on how severe they change it ?

---

qualifications shouldn't be altered -- doctors have to know what they have to know. firefighters have to lift certain weights and be quick and have high endurance. police have to know laws and how to use their weapons.

---

what i am saying is that women and people of colour are not given an advantage, an advantage that white people and men have. when racial segregation occurs in cities (especially large ones such as los angeles or new york city), it's constantly seen that the districts that have larger white populations than poc populations get more money in their education than the districts populated with poc. even if the same amount of tax money is payed, even if every other little thing is filled-- the white kids get a better education that the kids that are poc. they get better teachers, they get newer school buildings and school supplies (like laptops, new computer labs, new libraries, etc.), therefore giving them a better education. not to mention how even then-- people of colour and women are given lower scores on tests and such as white people and men despite doing the exact same thing.

---

women and people of colour deserve and have a right to the better education that white people and men have. they deserve equal scoring and justness in education. what they do after they get education is all on them-- if a woman is an all a student but she can't even lift half her weight, she shouldn't a firefighter, obviously. but she deserves as much fairness in a career choice as a man who is just as weak and just as intelligent as her.

... ???? are you not reading anything i'm saying ?? at all ??

women firefighters can and do exist. female firefighters have to pass the same standardization of tests that male firefighters do -- they have to prove they have endurance, they can lift so much weight, they can dress themselves in a matter of seconds, etc. every single firefighter has to pass this test in order to become a firefighter.

---

in order to become a soldier, female or male, you have to prove your endurance, bravery, strategic, basic knowledge and other skills depending on your subdivision (air force, marines, etc.).

---

in order to become a doctor, you have to prove you know the human body inside and out. you have to be able to put symptoms to a cause and you have to be able to solve a patient's troubles. you have to know medicines and remedies and be able to rattle them off without the aid of a book or computer.

---

every single career has qualifications. and yes, they are there for a reason. we can't have firefighters that can't lift other people or animals in order to get them out of burning buildings, we can't have doctors who don't know the endocrine system from the nervous system, we can't have soldiers who are extremely frail bodied and lack endurance. the qualifications are there to provide safety for both the person doing that career, and the person they are aiding- a patient, a civilian, etcetera.

---

however everything that i said above happens after you become an adult. eighteen or older is when the average person starts attending a university, it's the average time that if you are going to skip university education, you look for a job (some law enforcement, blue collar workers, etc.). people of colour and women do NOT have the same opportunity exiting high school and entering the job field as white people and men.

---

statistics show that women and people of colour are given lower sat scores, are discriminated against in the classroom (primary up towards university level education), and things of that nature. a simple google search of 'sexism in education' or 'racism in education' can bring up countless of sourced academia articles proving these points. what i'm saying is that women and people of colour need to be given the same opportunity as men and white people when education comes into play, or anything for that matter. i am saying they deserve as much recognition that a white man would get for the same job-- as they are often not given that recognition. women and people of colour are still payed less for the same jobs-- and it's 2016.

---

so no, i'm not saying that we should get rid of qualifications under the guise of equality, i'm saying that we should keep those qualifications and instead encourage people and motivate people and give people the tools to reach those qualifications, instead of only giving white people and men that head start.

that is NOT oppression -- that is an isolated act of discrimination.

---

and if you're talking about services to aid with job finding, scholarships, etc., you have to ask yourself why they exist-- they exist because the people who qualify for that service (poc, women, etc.) are at a DISADVANTAGE and that service levels the playing field.

---

it's no secret that poc who are segregated (ie the "black" or "mexican" parts of town) have lower education opportunities than the "white" part of town. it's no secret that women are discriminated against in education and receive lower grades than men despite doing the exact same.

---

scholarships and job services targeted towards people who are not in a position of power are not 'oppression'-- by that logic so is the disabled parking and family/special needs boarding on planes.

racism, and any other system of oppression, are SYSTEMS. these systems, like any system, have a certain person / people in positions of power.

---

the ceo of a business is in a position of power over the person who labors in the factory.

---

the manager of a restaurant is in a position of power over the cashier in that restaurant.

---

the laborer and the cashier cannot go to their manager or ceo and say "you're fired," and fire them. however the ceo or manager could go to the laborer or cashier and say "you're fired," resulting in the termination of that person's employment.

---

when talking about racism, white people are noted as being in a position of power. yes, isolated incidents of discrimination towards white people have been noted, they do exist-- but when assessing racism as a worldwide institution, reverse racism simply does not exist.

---

that being said, white people can and do experience oppression-- just not because they are white.

---

white women, white trans people, white queer people, white neurodivergent people, white disabled people, white poor people, etc. -- they all experience oppression, but not because they are white, rather because of their gender, or sexuality, or abled status, etc. just not because they are white.

---

when talking about other oppression white people face (queerphobia, ableism, sexism, etc.) it's still important to acknowledge that they even have privilege in those communities-- white gay people are more accepted than gay poc, there's a massive stigma behind being mentally ill and being a poc (we are less likely to be diagnosed/treated than white people, despite having the same mental status!), etc.
