Androgyny

December 2013, December 2016

Most people who know me know I love the idea of androgyny. At one time I posed as a boy and found it a victory when people couldn't figure out whether to call me sir or ma'am in public. When I used to sing, I wanted to sound as smoky, as manly as I could. I dueted with my sisters as "the male" and felt complimented when they told me they couldn't tell the difference. The most relaxed I've ever been in my body was onboard a small ship, when I could dress and behave however I wanted without it affecting the work I was doing, and vice versa.
