grand plan
A year or so ago I decided that I wanted to try and get us women a bit of positive exposure you know something where we would be seen as just one of the girls. Well that opportunity came from a surprise angle back in late 2017 when I put my name forward to be included in a project by a wonderful fine art photographer. Now I didn't expect anything to come of it but to my surprise Bella got intouch and said she would love to have me be part of the project.
the below link is a little video she did. I do show up for a few moments honest just keep with it.

This has given me such a boost to be accepted in such a way and that my story could be told to a new audience not looking for a trans angle. Its little action like this that normalise us, even a trip to the shops in a presentable way gets people used to seeing us and normalising our presence in society.
I think we are doing a good job, attitudes are changing at least here in the UK they are. I am still looking for new ways to make us visible in positive ways, Last year I did the photoshoot for a local hairdresser/wig supplier who might use me again and a possibility of a catwalk show in the summer but I doubt that one will come off but who knows.
