Gender is Over (for Me) + a Playlist!
Just a brief musing about what’s coming up for me as explore gender expression through clothing.
I had an aversion to "feminine" clothes for a whiiiiile and then I realized:
1. An aversion to clothes perceived as feminine started to reflect some internalized misogyny and it felt reallyreally gross.
2. Clothes are deemed "feminine" and "masculine" by other people and guess the fuck what? Other people don't define my gender identity and expression! So, I was like, "fuck that" and started tryna de-gender clothes (and really everything). For someone who prefers gender neutrality (that's me!), it's been really healing and freeing.
3. Pencil skirts are hot AF on every body. Period.
PS: I started curating a gender playlist on Spotify. Ch-ch-ch-check it out!
