headcanon that zira wears ONLY extremely expensive designer clothes, but is still somehow constantly mismatched and frumpy

My first ever craft fair stall!
Currently it is completely empty and someone has run off with my Charity Scarf, presumably to knit with it.
Still, mad hype!

The weirdest part about belonging to a marginalized group is when people outside and within the group who have had far more time and resources to study theory and social sciences etc. regarding that group expect you to be up to date.
I remember when I first called myself autistic weeks after my diagnosis, both a person with autism and one without actually Scolded me and told me “we say ‘person with autism’ now”
And I was like cool I was just excited to find out after a lifetime of wondering what was “wrong” with me that in fact nothing is and I’m great the way I am but I’m glad you decided that’s not enough and that you needed to take any happiness it brought me away as soon as possible thank you for welcoming me into the community.

In my experience, being on T effected my sex drive, but not my sexuality.
Prior to T, I was both as far along the ace spectrum as you could be without being repulsed by sex and had absolutely zero libido. I never thought about sex, was never sexually attracted to anyone, I didn’t even know what to do with my sex parts because I’d never considered using them for anything except menstruating. Heck, I was so oblivious I didn’t realize other people thought about sex at all beyond, like, something you had to do if you wanted a kid, until I was in college!
And honestly I was very happy with that. I’d identified as asexual since I was 14 and learned the word, and it was really comforting to know I wasn’t the only one, and it wasn’t just the product of being raised female.
And when I started T I was concerned, like you are now, that all this momentum that I’d built up around my ace identity would be for nothing once I had some other hormones in me. If it turned out that my hormones were just screwy, what basis would I have for being asexual? Was asexuality even real? Would I lose that identity?
What I found was that while T gave me a small amount of sex drive, I was still not attracted to anyone. I was still very much asexual as an orientation, just with an ability to explore a part of myself I hadn’t before.

I never know how to answer my traditional undergraduate students who are under the impression I am either a current student or a recent graduate.
Yelling “I’M A FULL ASS ADULT” probably isn’t right.
Sure! My university actually has an enormously high percentage of non-traditional students, too (something like 10% compared to our sister school, which has 3%? My university focuses on aviation and STEM fields, which are very attractive to older veterans).
But traditional undergraduates don’t think in those terms, usually.
It’s not REALLY a problem re: perception adulthood or lack thereof. They just don’t think I’m ~a professional~.
But internally yelling “I’M A FULL ASS PROFESSIONAL” isn’t as funny. (Mostly because, indeed, I am not.)
