    Where to find other retro singles?

    As tough as it is to meet eligible bachelorettes seeking the same, I've pretty much given up on the prospect of meeting many queer single ladies who are into vintage clothes. We are rarer than I would have thought. Hipsters and indie kids are about as close as it gets, as far as I have seen. As...

    What are you wearing today??

    The skirt and blouse give a wonderful silhouette! But my favourite part is your earrings, those are really something!! Beautiful hair, too. I like it all! The colour scheme is super effective

    A small step backwards on the buses

    I think people just like to hear the "ding" of the stop request Not that I would ever do such a thing.

    It's my face - isn't it?

    I get a lot of unwanted, in-your-face interactions (verbal abuse) and uninvited touching because of my hair and clothes too. I think in my case the assumption seems to be that I must not care very much about my appearance or myself because of the way I look, so I must not mind if people want to...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The last movie I watched was "Some Like It Hot" (a comfortable fall-back), but the last movie I wasn't that I hadn't seen before was "Miller's Crossing". I liked it, but I think "Barton Fink" is a more charming Golden Era Coen brothers movie, and has more John Turturro.

    Elle's No Makeup Issue

    Wow, it is exciting for me to read all this discussion on gender, I had no idea so many people feel the same way, relating vintage clothing to gender performativity! I wear wigs, false eyelashes, fake nails, girdles, etc when dressing as a woman, but I also "do" masculine gender (to use Butler's...

    If I Wasn't Vintage, I'd be...

    Haha, I am a punk, I would say as much as I am vintage. (but not ashamed!). I dress in pretty recognizable punk uniform-type outfits as well as kind of a new wave/new romantic style (although from what I have read here the 80s aren't particularly liked!). Sometimes I mix aspects of those with a...

    Relaxing Music

    Cool, Chris Murray came to my hometown in Ontario for a ska show put on by some of my friends at a local venue a couple years ago, and left quite an impression on me. I like Brian Eno to relax (and to party, and to listen to in every state in between!). Not just his ambient music, songs like...

    The Occult, are you a believer?

    Even as a devout athiest (if I were a Christian I guess my Jesus would be Carl Sagan!) I am still into the paranormal. I think it is merely an aspect of the universe science has yet to grasp. I don't think it's dangerous or terribly important, because I don't believe in intervention of any kind...
