Are the Cis Ok?
As we transition, we sometimes have conversations with cis people. Some of them funny, some rather awkward. Since I had some of them that were really entertaining or funny I thought I write a bit about these short episodes. Note that there might be situations readers would not feel comfortable with reading about.
Sashas Outfits #2
The second outfit
G’day to another edition of “does she really have a sound explanation for what she’s wearing?!?”
Yes, I call it #SashasOutfits.
Today it’s about color consistency and coordination. And the theme is “black and red”.
It started when I thought it would be nice to wear the black tights with red and white checks today again. So this time the starting point were the tights. Then I thought about the skirt and decided against a longer one (as I do most of the time ðŸ¤). Since I do not (yet) have a red blouse I took a heavily waisted black one with shoulder pads and for a dash of red added a red and black bowtie.
Sashas Outfits #1
A first outfit
Ok, here we go with a first test for #SashasOutfits. Main topic here is contrasting juxtaposition.
The jeans skirt is a rather rough and ‘rural’ item, especially the long one. The chiffon silk blouse looks like it’s a leftover from last evening’s dinner reception. They come from different spheres of life.
To make the posh nature of the blouse more obvious, I added the belt. From there the gold topic escalated quickly.
Sashas Outfits Intro
An idea from Mastodon
I had an idea, that I posted on Mastodon: Idea! What if I, instead of just taking outfit pictures, I explain how I put it together?
Because every outfit I wear is constructed in one way or the other. I use certain rules to express myself in it.
Not fixed rules like “never wear pink with blue” or shit like that. Never let anyone tell you what you can or can’t wear.
A different type of a bucket list
This will be a different type of bucket list. It’s not “things I would like to do in my life”, but a list of things I need to do for different reasons. So it’s more a list to hold myself accountable. And procrastinating these things will be embarrassing. And there are few things that hurt me more than to be embarrassed.
But be warned: there will be some rather explicit things on this list. Typical trans stuff I guess …
How They Became Her
Here is a story I often tell about how I changed my pronouns, so I thought it’s of interest for some people and I don’t have to tell it anew so often.Here is a story I often tell about how I changed my pronouns, so I thought it’s of interest for a wider audience. Also I don’t have to tell it anew so often, I can just point to this blog entry.
