Being perceived as ditzy, flaky or shallow for being femme

[TrixieSwizzle]

Sometimes I believe that we are our own worst enemy! I am not sure that with age comes your own convictions of yourself, that no one can diminish you as a person. Be yourself and let others take note of that fact! I am a great contradiction of terms. I play FABULOUS Fantasy Football but I wear big earrings to the draft, my hair is BLEACHED blonde but I play ditzy when it suits me, I am ME! And Sunshine you are you! If people, butches, whoever, don't appreciate that its their loss!!

I don't ever get the "nod". You know the nod ~ gay girls do it to each other to acknowledge even if they don't know each other they realize they are family. I tried to do it once and my friends were like "Really? You look like you are doing the I Dream of Jeannie nod!" So I don't do it anymore. Oh well, I know what I am and I probably didn't want to "nod" to them anyway!

I don't know you, but you seem articulate, smart, and with a fab sense of style. Stay you!! Let others think when you walk away "Wow, I would have loved to get to know her..."
