Going medical is the best option for beginners that don’t grasp the whole concept fully yet. Making a neutral outfit suitable, with only using accessories and printed thigh highs, is probably the hardest.

is there really any difference between medcore, hospitalcore, and menhera?

There seems to be a lot of confusion about this in the replies (menhera has NO relation to Decora fyi). Medcore = medical/medicine themed aesthetic. Hospitalcore = hospital themed aesthstic. Menhera = Creating artwork that vents your mental suffering and then wearing it as clothing to literally "wear your heart on your sleeve". Intention is to create conversations about taboo topics around mental heatlh. Topics can cover suicide, sexuality, bullying, eating disorders, etc, which can all be unrelated to medical or hospitals. Adding medicine, a blood bag, or nurse uniform motifs, etc, to an outfit will *not* make it menhera, unless it's specifically being done to express one's suffering wrt that stuff (for example, you spend a lot of time in hospitals and are afraid of nurses so you make a coord centred around that). It’s an activist movement and not an aesthetic, so meaning and intent behind menhera is extremely important. There is a Japanese style called “Yami Kawaii” which covers ‘cuteness turned sick/dark’ aesthetics including medcore, hospitalcore, and a menhera-looking aesthetic without serious meaning. Hope that helps!

Menhera is not the name of the fashion or the style is the name of a manga that is one of the icons of the Yamikawaii culture. Menhera Chan is a important part of the culture but is not the culture it self.

I just want to make sure that people in the comunity is using the right terms, if i’m wrong about something please tellme, i will apriciate

Pardon my english is not my firts lenguage

That is incorrect.

Menhera is a word from Japanese site 2ch in 2001. It meants “Mental Healther” and it is the name for members of a community for venting and supporting each others’ mental health. After some time it developed into a culture that included music, vent art, and eventually the vent art was printed onto clothing to create fashion.

Menhera-chan was named after ‘Menhera’ culture, along with the other characters in the manga (“Subculture” and “Yumekawaii”). There are even manga with “menhera” in the title that were published years before Ezaki’s Menhera-chan existed.

“Yamikawaii” was a word that Ezaki (the creator of the Menhera-chan manga) decided to use and promote as a more socially acceptable version of ‘menhera’. (Mental illness is taboo in Japan, so the word ‘menhera’ is also looked down on.) By his definition yamikawaii is “kawaii + illness”.

I know you were trying to be helpful, but we’ve spent years now trying to correct misinformation and it’s so tiring honestly, I wish people would stop telling misinformation about menhera as if it were fact.

Tumblr Purge

Does anyone know how to actually see what posts have been flagged? I keep seeing people talking about “lots of my posts were flagged” etc but I don’t know how to check that for mine.

Anyway, I’m not quitting tumblr per se but we’ll see if there’s even going to be anything left to quit after after December 17th lol It seems as good a reason as any to try and become more active somewhere else.

If you’re interested in following me / staying in touch / seeing where I end up, here are the links:

Twitter (semi-active): https://twitter.com/hikidreams

Insta (active): https://www.instagram.com/hikidreams/

Facebook (barely active, need to pick this back up):  https://www.facebook.com/HoshiCandy-790491281061288/

I need a new platform for sharing aesthetic posts, as is the purpose of this blog. Perhaps I will be making a new twitter for that, but for now follow one of the above, and you will be kept informed.

“I need to loose weight before I can wear cute clothes” “If I was pretty I would wear cute clothes” “I am too old to wear cute clothes” … A lot of that is to be heard daily but by wearing something you love, you will radiate an aura of happiness which itself is something cute so don’t let anything prevent you from wearing what you like NOW, someday it might be too late.
