this is a creative difference I find myself having with photographers sometimes; they want me to be the subject of these edgy, angular portraits of A Trans Person, while I want a soft-lit glamour shoot of the 5'2 biogirl I truly am inside.https://twitter.com/VioletChachki/status/1138123650526171143 …
Yeah this is the kind of thing I’m talking about. As an artist you want to show something new, startling. I get that. But when it comes to my self image as a tran I find not appearing a freak is an uphill struggle as is. There’s a longing to be normal.

Something something makes the viewer share your discomfort and struggle something something whatever. I get it, but if you portray someone for their insecurities then how are we supposed to let them get past them if that’s the identity we associate them with?

So you're saying there's some halfway point between Lou Reed- Gothic and the girl next store who just wants to eat pot brownies all day. Because I could appreciate that.
