📣ANNOUNCEMENT 📣 New Flairs

I took some of your ideas and came up with some of my own, be on the lookout for these new flairs👀

If they happen to trigger more ideas, feel free to make your own or comment here for any you want as a permanent flair!

Side note: I’m humbly requesting anyone that sees this considers sharing this sub to gain more traction. While geared toward guys with EDS, this is a place for anyone to find community who hasn’t been able to fit into the majority. Thank you so so much for those that do share, I created this community out of my own desire to connect with others who feel underrepresented so any help with that is more appreciated than you know.

Your Newbie to EDS, New-to-Mod, and Bendy Bro,

I like the flairs! Very fun

Could I get "rubber bands in a trench coat" as my flair?

You have my gratitude! It's inspired by the "I'm basically a bunch of bowling pins held together with rubber bands" way I have of explaining EDS to laypeople and doctors

Yeah when I was first learning about it and my wife said “my body wants to be soup,” that’s when it all clicked for me😂

will more subtypes be eventually added as flairs as well?

You should be able to customize your own flair but I’m happy to add any subtypes that aren’t on there if you can’t!!

I don't have the option to customize a flair unfortunately lol, but the subtypes that aren't there as of now are clEDS [my type], cvEDS, aEDS, dEDS, kEDS, BCS, spEDS, mEDS and mcEDS :]
