Queer Good Deed of the Day

I’m working with my local museum to make a new exhibit accessible to people of all ability levels. My OT friend and I walked them through some changes that would be great, but at the end, oh at the end...

It’s a “toys through the generations” exhibit, and they are making wooden doll packaging boxes as photo booths. One was GI Joe (blue, army stars, etc.), and one was neon-pink Barbie.

I suggested that such heavily gendered photo boxes were something I absolutely would not recommend. How about gender-neutral superhero boxes instead?

They mumbled a little but agreed, and the education director pulled me aside after I left and thank me.

Heeee! Progress is progress is progress.
