as someone with vitiligo, i actually hate seeing it added into things and shoved in my face. it makes the disorder seem like a vanity point. i don't want "vitiligo representation." it's not something i even think of on a weekly, let alone daily basis. it's just a part of me and i don't give a shit if it's "normalized." makes me feel gross that i even have something that can be taken advantage of for "diversity" points like that.
LESS THAN 1% OF THE GLOBAL POPULATION HAVE IT. IT'S NOT NORMAL. IT'S NOT CHIC OR FASHIONABLE. SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT IT.
