- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.

I think the ever growing machismo bullshit in America has subconsciously made me a different (better) person out of spite. I grew my hair super long again, and embrace liking kawaii and other cute and chill cultures, despite being a straight cis white male that wears mostly black and listens to metal.
Wait what’s kawaii? Besides, like, the place
Japanese kawaii culture.
Same, but with fascists/far-right wingers and their fashion. I'm shaving my head and dressing punkier because I hate this old-money vibe so many are trying to get. Sorry, no, rebellious leftists (and not billionaires) are my inspiration.
Is it ever growing? It seems very much that, on net, it is decreasing.
