  • It’s the 13th century aristocracy. Button holes were invented then. Any proper lady who could afford these new fashionable buttons would have servants to dress them. The leftward button orientation makes it easier for someone to button your shirt for you with their dominant hand.

    Men have to dress themselves, so the buttons go to the right to make it easier for him to button his own shirt.

    That’s one of the leading theories anyway.



  • Buttondown shirts, or jackets with buttons are wonderful. Men’s and women’s tops button in opposite directions. Men and women’s button downs look pretty much the same. If you’re not out, or don’t care to draw attention to yourself consider it.

    Very few are perceptive enough to notice other people’s buttons. But you will notice your own, and you deserve gender affirming buttons.


  • You have the right to kill in self defense. Many countries consider self defense from a credible threat to be just cause to kill someone.

    Even those countries that don’t permit their citizens to use lethal force in self defense are hypocrites, because they will have an army and some branch of armed law enforcement.

    Trans people are much more likely to be murdered than cis people. Being armed to mitigate that risk is a not an unreasonable decision. In the US, if a transphobe poses an imminent threat to your life you DO have a legal right to kill them, in most states, laws do vary.














  • Cars come from the factory with blinding lights. Yes modified lights are also a problem. There aren’t enough regulations for either OEM nor modified headlights.

    If a car’s headlights are mounted higher than the mirrors of another car, no amount of aiming can stop them from being blinding.

    If anything they should bring back sealed beam laws. Auto companies have proven they’re unable to make headlights correctly.
