I have had a lot of conversation with the admins of my page, my friends, family and colleagues before uploading this picture. They felt the need to give me their advice and to discuss if it would be right to upload this kind of picture. I actually don't know why since there is no need for me to have doubts about this picture. I love this subject. It is a nice composition and it's ART for me. I know a lot of people will not like it, and that is okay. I cannot please everybody and ensure that everyone shares my view. I personally do not define clothes as male or female (Well besides bras. I guess there's really no need for me to wear them). To me, clothes are actually just clothes. It is sewn fabric. That's it. And if you can rock it and you look and feel great in it, that’s fine. For the first time, I felt the need in that moment to say: YES TO THE DRESS!
And now, after a couple of weeks, I still do not feel less male at all. I am still able to pee standing up and I am still able to grow a beard and everything is just as fine as it always has been. I still can look in the mirror, and I am also still able to love, smile and laugh. I'm fine. It was a photoshoot for me, however, I know that some idiot will for sure leave a homophobic comment. I can delete it and it won't affect me. But for a lot of people in this world, being discriminated and insulted for being who they are is a daily occurrence - and this is sad. We are all humans and we all deserve respect. Like Panti Bliss said: "You get fed up putting up. I am fed up of reading yet another article by yet another straight person explaining why I am less, somehow, than everybody else. You get fed up listening to people describe you as ‘intrinsically disordered’; people who don’t even know you, from their celibate pulpits.
You get fed up of the scrawled graffiti and you get fed up of people sneeringly describe things as ‘gay’.
You get fed up of stealing yourself to pass by the Saturday night drunks hoping they won’t notice you.
And you get fed up of people using their time and energy and talents to campaign against you being treated just like every other citizen."
I am fed up.
So please if you:
• really don't like the picture
• believe that this picture insults you
• think that this kind of picture influences your children
• feel that it will destroy the institution of marriage
• feel offended because of your beliefs, or in any other way

Das ist ja wohl mehr als genial. Wundert mich, daß hier noch kein Kommentar hinterlassen wurde. Bin ich halt die erste.
Du siehst großartig aus. Und ich finde es immer wieder ganz besonders, wenn "Mann" auch mal ein wenig "Frau" ist. Daumen hoch für dieses Kunstwerk.
