One of my friends describes herself as "high femme," and she's cis* but identifies as pansexual. (She is, however, not even remotely in Jilli's ballpark of commitment to an aesthetic and the execution of that aesthetic. She basically wears long hippie skirts and birkenstocks and has looooong curly hair and gets gel manicures. I would not call that "high femme.")
I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am higher femme than that! Depending on what you mean by high. Maybe she means like high on pot??

I think that *she* thinks she's femme as hell. Which is...you know, you can call yourself whatever you want, but that doesn't make it true.

And, in entirely UN-femme-ness, I need this t-shirt: [link] Too bad my income is about to evaporate.

Steph, is it mean that I laughed at your friend's version of "high femme"? I know I have a high bar for this, but really.

She can come talk to me on a work day, and we can have a femme-off.
I will also say that even when you are watching your pennies, I think it's important not to feel like you have to punish yourself every day with every decision. So, you know, you can get a new t-shirt. Just not every new t-shirt.

No, seriously. She basically dresses like me, but with a gel manicure. I love her, but I think she's higher femme in her head than she is in execution.

This is true. Plus I still have an income at this moment. Just not for long.

I could see the trinket hair at my government office, if they didn't jingle. OTOH, my brother swears that even very sedate facial piercings are off-limits in a medical (patient-care) context for doctors, so I'm no sure how hair charms would go.
I want low glycemic oatmeal cookies, Consuela! Recipe?
Take a standard oatmeal cookie recipe and use whole wheat or white whole wheat instead of regular flour.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Not especially femme here, though my hair is long. Not butch either. I'm not sure what my usual dress code(t-shirt/knit shirt and jeans or chinos, black walking shoes) could be labeled as. "My style", I guess.
