and now I am earwormed.
sooooooo phisticated.
I am really excited to have the luxury, and I realize it is a luxury, of potentially having ownership months before move in so I can paint and think about rooms before the full on stress of moving stuff.
I think I will be making a few trips to the Indian fabric stores in my hood also to find fabric for curtains, pillow, and sheers.
I don't know what "performing female" means.

Oh, huh, cause it was a total "aha" phrase for me. Because I really don't/can't do girly on a day to day, but I do love to put it on sometimes (see: prom) and it does feel very much like costuming.
msbelle, I LOVE that color palette. My comforter is those colors, although only the lighter blue with the brown.
Like drag queens, but I think it's about makeup and fancy dresses and a lot of other things, too. I am no feminist theoritician, so I can't necessarily articulate it, but I think it's about consciously dolling up in a way that screams "lady" in our culture.

That makes sense to me now, too. That's very much me.
As someone with a peacock/brown living room, I approve of that colour scheme.
I have a definite opposition to calling that performing female. I would call that performing feminine.
Then there's the question of if it goes beyond clothing. I have no urge to change how I behave--I behave just as female as I ever want to.
I am totally copying you Sue!
ok. I feel good about that room, now on to my room.
