Happy Pride Month, Bitches

“Prepare for trouble.”

“Make it double.”

Avatar live action adaptation’s costumes and set designs are gonna be stunning if the original show is any indication. I’ve compared show’s existing designs to their real-life inspirations. If they take some creative liberty, like how Game of Thrones did with its costume designs, I think it’s we’re going to get a visually stunning show, at the very least.

VICTORIA DE ANGELIS STYLE APPRECIATION

Strict distinctions between boys and girls didn’t sit right with me: when I was six I started to reject all “feminine things”: I went skateboarding, I had short hair, I dressed like a tomboy. I didn’t wear skirts, not because I didn’t like them, but because I wanted to claim the chance to be myself. Rock music embodied that burst of freedom.

Victoria for Vanity Fair Italia

“High heels for men, kisses between us, we have an open mind, extended, and we’re proud of it. Horizons are getting vast and beyond the oppression of conservative families. With the information you can find online, you can enrich your knowledge and with it the chance of minorities getting less minorities because the majorities will get less majorities and so the volume of bullying and insulting will be turned down”.

“At six years old I already couldn’t tolerate distinctions between male and female. I’ve always had strong ideas on how I wanted to be. I refused things that were typically feminine, and people made fun of me because I loved skating, I played football and didn’t wear skirts, but I was giving myself the chance to be how I wanted to be. I suffered a bit because of it, but I was brave and today, thanks to that courage, I know I would have suffered more if I let people take the most important decision: the one about me.”

“When i experienced feelings for a girl for the first time, i found myself a bit disoriented because I had never had the courage to go beyond the limitations I had imposed on myself. To society, being heterosexual is the norm and often you automatically put yourself into that box precluding yourself the freedom of living many various shades of love. Once I overcame the insecurity of discussing my own certainties, I lived my sexuality in a very natural and free way, and that’s how it should be for everyone”.
