PRIDE MONTH QUOTE 10

Wednesday, June 19, 2024

How are you supposed to be believed about the harm that you experience when people don’t even believe that you exist? The assumption is that being a masculine man or a feminine woman is normal, and that being ‘us’ is an accessory. Like if you remove our clothing, our makeup, and our pronouns, underneath the surface we are just men and women playing dress-up. – Alok Vaid-Menon, Beyond the Gender Binary

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Check out The Trevor Project, whose “mission is to end suicide among LGBTQ+ young people.” Interested in the book the quote came from? If so, click here!

My heart! Yes to all of this! Alok says it better than I ever could: @alokvmenon - this is what the cover of mainstream fashion & lifestyle magazines should look like. trans & gender non-conforming people have been the vanguard of art & style since the beginning & now is our time to reclaim what is rightfully ours! beauty beyond the binary baby! posing with my queer #rolemodel @sashavelour was an absolute delight — we invented all of the angles darling, no we invented modeling itself! thank you @instagram for making my dreams come true. 📷 @jasonrodgersphoto 💄@findliz hair: @samdivine (link in bio for more) #pride #queerculture #beyondthebinary #gendernonconforming #genderisaconstruct #bettertogether #bemoreyou #loveyourself #alokvaidmenon #sashavelour #fightthegoodfight #standtogether

Alok Vaid-Menon in Vibrant, Living Color by Jeri Rae A hero of mine: non-binary poet, performance artist and activist, @alokvmenon in two different pieces of digital art in one collage. On the left is a simulated oil painting using digital oil on digital canvas on the right is Alok in Hyper-Reality. Both pieces showcase Alok’s uncompromising approach to presenting themselves. In bold, vibrant clothes that challenge gender norms and assert the right of anyone to present their feminine style without any compromise. Alok inspires me to be just a little bit braver in showing the world the authentic gender presentation I feel born to show. * #Art #Artistic #NonBinaryIcon #AlokVaidMenon #IndianAmeican #TransHero #Fashion #Beauty #PoliticalComedy #TheyThemTheir #PoeticChallengeToGenderBinary

I spoke with mental health advocates @alokvmenon and @vivnunez for this edition of What I Wish You Knew from @netflix 💛 Everyone's mental health journeys look different and so does their mental health care. From therapy to art and writing, everyone can have different outlets that help them process and heal. 🧡 #WhatIWishYouKnew #MentalHealth #mentalhealthmatters #allthebrightplaces #allthebrightplacesmovie #alokvaidmenon #viviannuñez #youarenotalone https://www.instagram.com/p/B9LVaDQpoDA/?igshid=9ih4vbv7q3pg

If I was to ask your mom about you, she would know a fundamentally different person than the you that I know currently. The internet only portrays one version of you, not all your multitudes.” Alok wants people to understand this pivotal point and it’s a facet of their new work “Watching You Watch Me.” Read the full piece here: http://www.thewildcity.com/EN/features.xhtml/article/11856-a-restless-creative-for-a-better-world-alok-vaidmenon Image credit: Mukul Bhatia for @nomadicorigins . . . #thewildcity #music #newmusic #india #indianmusic #delhi #mumbai #bangalore #pune #kolkata #hyderabad #electronicmusic #electronic #alokvaidmenon #trans #poetry #theatre #feminism #transicon #internet #activist #rolemodel #writer #performanceartist #feature #Indiaphotoproject
