Hands On!

Colorful Digits

Talking about "selfies": I recently took this pic at work, displaying our playful, brightly polished fingernails.
One of the hands belongs to a (biological) lady co-worker, one to a MTF transgender friend, and the last one, well, to me... (let me call myself a "New Male"!)

Can you guess which hand is whose?

The High-Heel Selfie

MIH

(Men in Heels)

Just a few guys out there, sharing their passion: pics of themselves wearing high heels!

Is this you?

My source didn't identify the wearers. That's too bad.

so, if you appear in any of these pictures, please do tell!

Or... Would you like to submit your own selfie wearing heels?

(Provided you're a guy. If you're a lady, send one of you boy-friend in stilletos!)

It's been a While: Joey

Individuality

I haven't posted anything recently about my good old friend, Joey Ma, one of the most conspicuous male "free-dressers" on the Internet today.

His wonderful blog, which increasingly becomes more interesting and more professional looking, now including videos as a regular feature, is as engaging and worth visiting as always, if not more.

At the time, he is "reporting" from Copenhagen, where this slightly eccentric, fascinating Hong Kong-based stylist is currently showing off his seemingly extinguishable creativity and flair.

Footloose and Fashion-Free!

We are living exiting times in many senses: technologies allow us to stay in touch with people from around the word and humanity even starts reaching for distant planets.

When it comes to gender, we have gone a long way into accepting our ample, rich sexual diversity that goes way beyond the traditional gender binary: after many centuries of stereotypes, people finally start presenting themselves as bi-gender, non-binary, genderless, genderfluid.

Even cis-gender people, i.e. those falling into the conventional ”male” and “female” categories, are acting, even unconsciously, in ways far removed from traditional patterns: Ladies are becoming more assertive, while gentlemen are allowed to show their emotions and display their “feminine” side.

All this slow but steady modifications in our conduct, which I consider to be extremely healthy and honest, cannot help but being expressed in the way we dress.

Ladies wear pants and “power suits”, while the creativity, the flair, the colors, the design, which used to be reserved for the girls only, are finally reaching the menswear department. Males don’t have to settle for the same old boring, gray, stuff.

Skirts, heels, jewelry and flower-patterns in bright colors for men are not uncommon any more.

My blog, promotes designers and creators of non-conforming fashions.

WARNING: It’s not a blog about "cross-dressing". That's a word that hopefully will one day vanish from our vocabulary as everyone dresses the way they feel suit and that's that!

Feel free to wear whatever you please!

I do not own the copyright for any of the pictures I publish. My only intention is to promote the creative work of designers, photographers, stylists, and all the artistic talents involved in the production of alternative, inventive, unusually creative fashions.

I'm pretty sure that all those creators benefit from the costless publicity and world-wide promotion they obtain from bloggers around the globe. As a matter of fact, many of them have actually recognized our work.

I make my best effort to always include all the due credits and, whenever possible, to link them to the source where the images were originally published.

I'm always pleased to read and to publish all your comments, personal opinions, and whatever experiences you are willing to share with us about the featured fashions and styles. So don't be shy: go ahead and post your input.

Negative comments and criticisms are also welcome! But let me point out that, whatever be the case, pro or con, politeness and respect are always mandatory. Comments containing improper language, as well as derogatory or disrespectful remarks will be deleted.
