DJing in Brooklyn TONIGHT! All $$$ goes to Silva Rivera Law Project!

 
I am DJing in Brooklyn at Hey Queen TONIGHT!  
Just head to Public Assembly.
 I am playing from 10 until midnight!

All of the money goes to support The Sylvia Rivera Law Project. They are an INCREDIBLE organization that does so much important work in our community. Here is their mission statement. Please do check out their website.

"The Sylvia Rivera Law Project (SRLP) works to guarantee that all people are free to self-determine their gender identity and expression, regardless of income or race, and without facing harassment, discrimination, or violence." (http://srlp.org/about)


Who was Silvia Rivera?

"She may have been the prototypical Angry Queen. Unbowed, unbought, and virtually indigestible by a gay movement she helped birth, Stonewall warrior Sylvia Rivera died on February 19." 
Ricki Wilchins
 "Finding food, shelter, a safe bed, and even some recognition for genderqueer kids was a lifelong passion for Sylvia. She saw them as society's most vulnerable outcasts. She picketed and protested, caucused and cajoled, and if the occasion called for it, which it often did, she submitted to arrest." 
Ricki Wilchins
 "She was a tireless advocate for all those who have been marginalized as the "gay rights" movement has mainstreamed."

St.Marilyn

First off, please do excuse the totally queermo obscure reference to Patrick Califia. However, ever since reading 'Macho Sluts", I love to think that I have my own Saint Marilyn, like the femme character does in one of the stories.  
 A Saint Marilyn to help me on my Femme way. To keep me from falling in heels, reminding me where to put perfume, and that I can wear anything with the right attitude

The hair, the pants, the range. I love the photo booth quality of this montage. Monroe meet Amelie de Poulain

Oh Michelle Williams....oh Hay girl Haaaay. 
She seems to have Miss Monroe down to a T! I am so excited to see this! Who's with me?

A dose of Femme-itude

The movie Bound has to be one of my favorite depections of Femme/Butch roles in mainstream cinema to date. I take so many cues from Jennifer Tilly. I mean, just check out her femme-itude here.
 That is "the look", no messing about. A major Femme icon for me, hands down.

Oh to ride off into the sunset in a pickup truck with a butch, true love, leather jackets, and enough money to pay all your debts.

Le sigh...


This also makes me think about how queer femmes cruise butches.
It's almost like you are silently saying...

"Hey YOU. Yeah you hot stuff. I'm no straight girl. Come swagger over here and buy me a drink/light my ciggarette/dance with me."

The Look. That femmesharkstonefemmehighfemme Look.
