I really enjoyed reading Alok’s work that was assigned to us. I feel like it works as an amazing and interesting eye-opener to everyone. I honestly feel like I have learned about gender binary norms as well as non-binary norms. I don’t follow gender binary norms when it comes down to clothes or the way I express myself. Yes, I enjoy wearing skirts, colorful clothes or as a society sometimes says “dress like a girly girl”. Yet at the same time, I also enjoy dressing comfortably. I like to wear ‘boy’ clothes as well. I feel like when it comes down to clothes, there shouldn’t really be ‘girl’ clothes and ‘boy’ clothes. What simply makes that piece of clothing either a girl or boy clothing is what society makes it to be as well as marketing. Why is a pink shirt meant to be for simply girls? Or the most common thing that I have seen recently, why is it that only girls can wear crop tops and boys can’t because if they do, they will be made fun of. A person should be able to dress any way they want and express themselves however they want to. It shouldn’t bother nor matter to anyone else. Why? Well, it’s their own body. They should decide how they want to express and show themselves to society. Society should not be the one to decide for us. Whether someone wants to look feminine or masculine. It shouldn’t be up to anyone else.
