I found sources. 

The word “man” was gender neutral and referred to both sexes until the 13th century

The female specific pronoun “she” was invented in the 12th century. 

The word “girl” was gender neutral and referred to children of both sexes until the 15th century

High heels were invented for men and were worn predominantly by men until the 16th century

From the mid 16th century to the 19th century boys would typically wear dresses until the age of 7

Until the early 1930s pink was considered the appropriate colour for baby boys and blue was the colour for baby girls

In 2017, a Christian couple pull their 6yo son out of a primary school because his classmate is transgender - citing their “traditional beliefs”  IMPORTANT NOTE: Last source is transphobic and from a pro-life website that attempts to defend the dumb ass couple. Feel free to ignore it if you prefer, but it was included for the sake of accuracy. 

Reblogging because verifiable sources make every information 70% better. Thanks for the addition!

PLEASE JUST SHOW ME THE CASSEROLE RECIPE

For a split second my dumbass thought the Fukushima nuclear accident had fried the rice

Yeah, same. I was like “oh wow, someone had to flee the disaster zone after making steamed rice and they came back and it had burnt on the countertop.”

Oh hey, a post @jitterbugjive​ can relate to.

This one of the best things I’ve ever read

ernmark:

Do gay Klingons ever get frustrated/dejected because their gentleman caller hasn’t so much as kicked a pebble their way or uttered the slightest growl?

Do questioning Klingons ever show their crush their poetry, only to have their crush assume that he’s helping them proofread or something?

Is there ever an issue where a lesbian Klingon tries very awkwardly to recite poetry to her lady love? 

Or instances where two lesbians are basically beating the shit out of each other and both thinking “I know she thinks this is just a regular old gal fight, but no, seriously, I’m trying to declare my intentions here”?

Are there euphemisms for LGBT Klingons? “Don’t try to win her over, Riker. She reads poetry.”

doctor who is like heres one of the most complicated and tragic friends-to-enemies-to-friends-to-lovers stories youll ever experience about two very tormented people finding and losing each other again and again and again across time and space and wanting each other without reaching for each other and caring for each other without wanting to admit it and crying for each other without the other knowing but one of their names is ‘the master’ and one of their names is ‘the doctor’ so you cant take any of it seriously at all

love this post bc it reminded me that the master literally ages the doctor into a shitty 2000s cgi raisin and pushes him around singing scissor sisters’ “i can’t decide” and then later in the SAME ARC dies in the doctor’s arms ON PURPOSE just to spite him as he screams and sobs for him 2 stay alive so he’s not left alone in the universe

What do you mean “the same arc”, it happens in the same episode

and then the master resurrects himself because he apparently started a cult and then turns every human into himself and has to once again to say goodbye to the doctor to stop them from not being the last ones left.
