Gender experts of hexbear, please help me understand wallet gendering
It’s just a frigging wallet
They wanna fuck the wallet.
Shell cordovan got me actin up
Transphobes: you can’t just change your gender like that. Gender is all about biology
Also transphobes: this wallet is a woman, clearly
man I can only imagine how fucking psychedelic things would be nowadays if English had grammatical gender
Crackpot theory idea : the absence of grammatical gender is the reason the anglo empire is at the forefront of transphobia, because gendered nouns convey the idea that gender is a social construct
I feel like you’re overestimating the degree to which people recognize that language is a social construct.
If English had grammatical gender anglophone transphobes would claim the gender words have is unchangeable fact and if words can’t transition of course people can’t.
Wdym crackpot language philosophy doesn’t hold up to scrutiny how dare you
I WILL DIE BEFORE I LET YOU COMMIES SAY MY TRUCK IS A LADY
Bulgarian has grammatical gender and our chuds are still on that “gender is biological” bullshit. Never forget the cruelty is the point, there is nothing underneath fascist arguments but a yawning void where their humanity used to be.
Turns out the transphobia was the mental illness all along!
They’re called billfolds, not bettyfolds!

Sure I’ll help you a bit: The wallet is actually male-presenting. The reason for that is that it has a chain, which means it’s supposed to be put into your pockets, which only male-presenting pants have in large enough sizes, and not into a purse or bag, which are female-presenting of course.
Just another case of cis people being bad at gender.
If Hazbin fans are running around with those, then the whole gender thing could get a bit messy.
The Noise Boys never fail to disappoint.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
folks is it gay to carry your ID and cards in a wallet?
also, the old Portuguese word for wallet, boceta, is now a slang for vagina lol
The wallet has big eyelashes and a bow
Donald Duck dimorphism
Finally, this will make me a woman.
I can throw out all my hormones.
Any kind of zipper, button, or clasp will bring it closer to a clutch visually I guess
Real men betray no emotion as their change clatters onto the floor and when they lose their ID
A man must spend a lifetime to hone their relexes to instantly catch all objects that come shooting out of their wallet every time there is a need to get into it.
Gender aside, do people really carry change these days?
Yeah, when you buy stuff they give you change.
The little pocket keeps it tight against your body so it doesn’t jingle around when you walk.
I don’t remember the last time I paid for something in cash unless it was a tip. And if I did get change afterwards I’d just leave in somewhere home
Yeah, I usually put it in the little pocket until I get home or keep it in the ashtray of the car.
Actually I only ditch the small change, the bigger ones are nice when you run across a vending machine.
Back in my day you could get a piece of candy for a nickel! Thanks brandon
There was still a penny chickle gum machine in the second floor of the courthouse till a couple years ago.
I take one coin with me when I go to the grocery store for the cart deposit lmao
I don’t use cash very often but I do still have a couple of coins on me at most times
It’s male-coded to use that weird little coin pocket that’s inside the front pocket of some jeans.
And struggle for 5 minutes to ever get something out of it
Struggling over pointless shit is also male-coded.
Guys, maybe fascism was male-coded all along
weird little coin pocket
It’s an old timey watch pocket. Easier to fish something out of when it’s on a chain.
that’s cause most of us don’t have bras to keep out coke in
That’s what that thing is??? I’d never in a million years put money in there or keep it in my pants in general
I think so?? I’m not sure how you dig a coin out of it, though!
Maybe it’s just for condoms idk 🤷♀️
It’s a pocket watch holder. For whatever reason that’s the thing in fashion that stuck around long past the point where nobody used those anymore.
I tend to clip my pocket knife to them. Keeps it hidden inside the pocket while still being easy to grab.
Now I gotta look at cheap pocket watches on AliExpress
EDIT: These designs are incredible
One of those trad nerds buys one of these because carrying coins in a tiny velvet sack, to quote, “feels gay.”
A thousand pardons m’lord, allow me to fetch a pennyfarthing from thine bag of holding.
Sir, you’re holding up the line.
This wallet gendering is just a plot by the clothing industry so they don’t have to put pockets in womens clothes.
Oh shit, I can explain this. Kinda. I can’t explain how we got to wallets implying gender, but this wallet looks like it’s bigger and possibly has a zipper (just guessing by thickness). Apparently it’s a thing for girl wallets to be dummy thic; I’d guess because a purse can carry more than a pocket can. Maybe that’s how we got here?
Personal anecdote time, back when $20 meant something, I stuffed a $20 bill in my pocket and ended up losing it. My SO was rightfully pissed at me about it, because we could not afford to just lose $20. After a bit of talking it over, we arrived the the problem being that I just had too much shit in my little wallet, so we decided that the best way forward would be to get me a big, big wallet to hold all my shit. I actually got some light teasing about it at work, mostly from the Gen X folks, about it being a girl wallet (am cismale), but it didn’t bother me because I’m not stupid and I’ve got other shit to worry about besides whether my wallet is apparently gender normative. And besides, the teasing honestly wasn’t that bad, I took it affectionately and started saying “yeah, it’s my MANifold”; a dumb joke that got a few chuckles, and that was basically the end of it. It’s been over a decade and I still use giant fucking wallets to this day because they’re really useful for carrying a bunch of stuff in an organized way.
I enjoyed your manifold joke and hope you still use it when you get grief.
I appreciate it! I do, though it doesn’t come up much anymore.
Stupid woke wallet makers putting type 1 and type 2 as the description! Just write male wallet and female wallet like God intended!! I’m going to buy one an burn a giant penis on it so everyone knows my wallet is manly!
These are all five star reviews though. Maybe the trans-fluoride we’ve been putting in the water is starting to work.
The wallet pass
I use one of those things that people who carry purses use to hold their cards and money in as a wallet. Sleek and it doesn’t hold a lot so no clutter.
