“When they examine your bones in a thousand years, you will only ever be seen as your biological sex”
1. I’m very flattered that you think my skeleton will be examined by scientists. Thank you for believing in my longevity.
2. When I’m a skeleton a thousand years from now, I plan on being dead so tbh I don’t see this being an issue.
3. I have an anthropology degree and I’ve worked with bones (not my focus, but it was still part of my curriculum), and yes we do use terms like “female pelvis” or “male proportions” when discussing remains. Even though I’m a trans person, I’ve never once been bothered by this. Gender and sex can exhibit themselves differently in a variety of contexts and language can adapt accordingly. Tbh I’m more concerned about my job security and my access to equal healthcare, rather than the gendered language my physical anthropology instructor uses.
4. In studying these bones, I can say that the sex or gender of the specimen I was looking at was the least interesting thing about them. Do you think archeologists thousands of years from now will care what biological sex I was? No, they’d probably wonder why I have a piece of metal permanently glued to the back of my teeth. Or the fact that my jaw is misaligned. Or what my joints can say about my daily lifestyle and level of movement. These details can help paint a broader picture of what life looked like back then on a physical level. That is the story my bones tell, not the shape of my pelvis or brow ridge or whatever.
The fact that he’s the happiest about School of Rock, and the fact that School of Rock is my ultimate comfort film, makes me very pleased
He is right though, because of this movie he starred in “rock schools” opened all over the country. A lot of music lessons in general took a shift from traditional music based to teaching kids how to be in a band. I took piano lessons as a teen at one of those schools and the teacher taught me out of a lesson book but also taught me how to play a Dresden Dolls song. His movie changed/modernized music education, I’m so glad he’s most proud of that movie.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
