"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest feais that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous ? Actually, who are you not to be ? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us, it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." [Inauguration Speech of Nelson Mandela, 1994. The sentence “As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” is from Marianne Williamson.]   Home Language :   Changer en Français MiSSing Sign :   Presentation   Email me Drawings :   All   Shaman   Cubism   The dress   New York City   Words of Songs   Colored hairs   Pencil drawings   Warrior of the Light   Androgyne Psychology:   Not easy being a boy      Skirting Men   "Les garçonnes"   False ideas   Estimates itself   Builders of culture   To dare the Skirt   Our clothes speak to us   Reflexions about the Skirt Fashion Articles:   Tee-Shirt   Gothic culture   The Golden Mean   Proportion of Skirt   Skirt's councils   Skirt's lexicon   Boot's lexicon   Androgyny and Fashion Members :   Login   Members List   The Wall   Register as Member (free) Other :   Links   Golden book Wild nights: Pleasure and Oneself affirmation Affirmed and delivered dreams Passions and wild nights ...

STAGE BEAUTY: In 1660, the most famous actress of England is not other than a man of the name of Edward "Ned" Kynaston.

[Homage to the movie STAGE BEAUTY - 2004] Edward "Ned" Kynaston wears a dress wallet out of satin to high size with draped asymmetrical long-line bra. Collar and cuffs are green silk. Gabrielle Loodts. February 2, 2008. The Skirt for man in the Gothic universe. Gothic esthetism   In our society, threatening for minority groups, aggressive by its technological projections, alienating by its media processes and its dictatorship of the pictures, the body remains a rampart to preserve, to find oneself, guarantor of a personal identity threatened by this technological and social environment. To be aware of their body, the Gothics will exacerbate their symbolic report with this one by expressing by clothing something of fundamental in their perception of the world. By the ornament, they nourish the body of symbols and cultivate it by symbols. The Gothic aesthetic universe expresses a rejection of rationalism to the profit of a personal passion. It is a means reaching a spirituality, considering reality differently and granting to the things a aesthetic major sens. The Gothic collective (concerts, exposures, dances) comes to support and reinforce this personal aesthetic research and to cause the will to open out in this aesthetic quest. The Skirt in the male gothic look "Only the darkness has the capacity to open to the world the heart of a man." [ Paul Auster - "the catch room" ]   The black vision suggested by Gothic esthetics returns to certain topics (the Gothic architecture, the Christian art, the vampires, the cinema of the fantastic, black films) like to a constant search for an expression of beauty in the tension, the strange and the decline. The gothic look corresponds to a style at the same time more or less sober and elegant. The esthetism is an essential criterion. The black is the prevalent color. The long black coats, the overcoats, the leather jackets and trousers, the neat hairstyle constitute the "traditional" elements of the male look.   In the other criteria of beauty specific to the Gothic medium, we can find the make-up for men or the port of the Skirt. For the Gothics, it will be seen like something of esthetics and not dressing-up. The sexual differences attenuate through the look and the ornament. The androgyne aspect is developed to be different from the other cultures (the rap for example) and to be opposed to the values traditionally (and wrongfully) associated the masculine: mass production in factories, wars, consumer society,... The Gothic vestimentary style can be difficult to assume: sometimes for its androgyne side , sometimes for his occult connotations or its dictatorship of colors. The people do not recognize the individuals as "Gothics" and consequently develop their own system of categories such for example associating the port of the Skirt to a latent homosexuality. Black is black: Skirt and Tee-shirt matched out of cotton. Stockings and mitten. Boots with high soles and Gothic make-up. Gabrielle Loodts Marsh 2006.

Bonjour à tous les hommes qui sont convaincu que le port de la jupe, bas collants, sous vêtements et même chaussures à talons ne devraient pas être uniquement l'apanage royal de la gente féminine. La plupart des femmes et jeunes filles veulent laisser de coté leur féminité en se grimant en mecs (jean blouson Caterpillar et casquette). Pourquoi nous les hommes ne ferions nous pas pareil ? Notre part naturelle de féminité (même le plus poilu des bucherons macho endurcis par le froids et l'ermitage recevant le besoin de se laver à chaque changement de saison) produit de la progestérone (hormone féminine). Mais comme il produit aussi de la testostérone en plus grande quantité ses caractères masculins sont prépondérants. Même si elle est infime, pourquoi ne nous autoriserait-elle pas à puiser dans la garde robe de notre sœur, amie, épouse ou de notre mère ? Nous vivons une époque ou le poil superflu féminin et masculin est pourchassé a coup de rasoir et d'épilation. L'homme moderne passe autant de temps en institut de beauté et bien être que ces dames. Le sous vêtement Marcel a fait un saut ...du kangourou ... au string ficelle..au jockstrap ! J'ai la cinquantaine et ayant porté depuis plusieurs années des bas de contention été comme hiver, jour et nuit, je m'étais résigné a me faire épiler les jambes pour limiter les échauffements. Je me contente aujourd'hui de porter des bas et collants féminins de 15 a 20 deniers jour et nuit pour maintenir une température constante sur mes jambes ! Le pire (ou le meilleur) est que je me suis non seulement habitué au port de ces bas, mais j'y ai pris goût jusqu'au point ou mon angiologue m'avait fortement conseillé de porter des chaussures compensées à talon haut afin que le mollet remonte et favorisant le retour veineux (circulation du sang des jambes vers le cœur). J'ai essayé les chaussures compensées en pharmacie mais 5cm ce n'était pas suffisant! Finalement je porte à la maison depuis plusieurs années des escarpins femme de 13cm de haut et la santé de mes jambes ne s'est jamais aussi bien portée! Mon épouse a accepté cette fatalité et j'ai l'impression de revivre car je ne souhaite à personne de porter en permanence des bas de contention le jour et de bas anti thrombose la nuit ! Un carcan !! Depuis que je porte ces attributs féminins, ma conception des choses a évoluée. Mon coté féminin s'est affirmé sans être efféminé mais j'éprouve de plus en plus le besoin d'aller plus loin dans le vestimentaire et de porter jupes, robes, body et tout autres habits interdits aux hommes ! Tout ce que je souhaite maintenant c'est que les mentalités changent, que les casseurs de travelo et de toutes personnes différentes d'eux ne soient plus qu'une espèce éteinte et enfin qu'un jour je puisse sortir et me montrer à mon aise en public. J'ai envie d'exprimer librement et ouvertement ma féminité ! Alors mesdames vous n'aurez plus le monopole de la féminité ! Voila je tire mon chapeau a ceux qui ont passé le pas ... de leur porte et ... je les envie !!! Bises à tous et bon courage.
