Tomboys?




Random thoughts, concerning genders, tomboys and style...


Tomboys. When You read the exact definition , it doesn't sound so  flattering  if you are a woman, shaped by the patriarchal society and especially, if you're living in Lithuania. I still don't know, what's my reaction. 


One guy told me: a real woman doesn't wear short hair! I think I don't care about trivialities like this anymore, but some stuff still remain a puzzle ...


My friend has a picture with a quote by Levi Strauss (I think): "Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society". 
I still try to figure out if I agree.


Then there is this image of yourself in your head:you see yourself trotting down the street, ready to kick ass ( basically- a tomboy). But in reality... well it just doesn't show. Or even if it does sometimes, it looks more like a skinny thing twisting around it's axis.


Skirt or pants? Heels or no heels? Talk or remain silent?


You would probably say-be yourself! Who knows who they really are????


Recently I found a very cool blog, a collection of tomboy style. So I think I stay on this side for a while.
