nobody likes the “bad boys” who insult and degrade their partners while wearing pastel polos with popped collars, people like REAL bad boys who wear leather jackets and take a lot of care in how they shape their pompadour and carry around stiletto switchblades and care about their communities and ride a motorcycle and rebel against the government and says stuff like “NOBODY insults my gal” and gets in fistfights with dudes who catcall their girlfriends. THOSE bad boys are the guys everyone wants.
We want the boys society says are bad, not actually bad boys
Classic bad boys went against the mainstream masculine society of their time. They embraced attributes that were considered girly: longer hair, use of hair products, appreciation in their appearance, enjoyment of art and music. They rebelled against the notion that as soon as you left high school you needed to work a respectable job, get married, and have 2.5 children. They were bad because they didn’t follow what society said a man should be, and that’s why it was attractive
Photographic Illusions by Chris Engman
Chris Engman is a Los Angeles-based photographer who could be described as master of illusion. Indeed, the artist sets large-scale natural landscape shots such as country settings, deserts or caves, on walls, ceilings and floors of domestic rooms.
Saw this today in NW Portland.
“queer existence is resistance”
If a cow was to go to heaven after being killed in a slaughter house, would it return as a cow or a burger?
muxes (alternately spelled muxhes) generally represent people who are assigned male at birth and identify as different genders. Often, they even identify the muxe word itself with its own gender identity. The iterations among the muxe community and their self-identifications vary—some identify as male but are female-expressing, others identify as female and are more closely associated to western culture’s understanding of transgender, but it is an identity specific to the Oaxaca Region and the indigenous Zapoteca culture. Others defy gender entirely.
Muxes are respected contributors to their town, often working as artists and merchants amid the rest of Juchitán’s working class of craftmakers, artisans, beauticians, and manufacturers. Muxes are not only respected, they are celebrated throughout Juchitán for their defiance of gender roles. Having a muxe person in the family has come to be seen as good luck and even a blessing . A celebration to honor muxes and their gender ambiguity manifests in Oaxaca’s three-day festival called Vela de las Intrepidas (Vigil of the Intrepids)
