My kind of femme is about drag.
with every false eyelash
every pair of fishnets
I’m constructing a new identity.
I believe in the power of costume to make a grrrrl
But never to break a grrrrl
–life does that to us every day.

Thanks for the love! Also the artist who made this piece is named Elizabeth “Oscar” Maynard!!!
I have too much to say about gender as performance and what kinds of ‘costumes’ are liberating vs oppressive.
