fuck yeah, hard femme!

a celebration of fabulous femme folks who look just as tough as they do fly and a plethora of hard femme inspirations.

this is not a fashion/style blog; this is an identity blog with a large fashion/style component.

femme =/= female
please keep that in mind when reblogging - misgendering is rude as hell and easily avoided.

There is nothing more sexy than an Indian woman dressed in a traditional cotton saree (not that fakeass, ugly Bollywood designer-crap shit) with bindi, sindoor, bangles, taweez, and jungli black hair… I wish I could dress like this everyday but I don’t have the courage to dress traditional everyday in public or else white people gawk at me and treat me like I’m stupid and weak and helpless (or even worse, white guys who think we are Orientalist fantasy sex objects). Insha’allah, I can’t wait to go back to India so I can wear Indian clothes everyday…

this girl is beautiful and i totally agree that we should be allowed to wear whatever we want without white dudes imposing some orientalist fantasy on us or white feminists telling not to act so submissive because saris on indian girls = housewife gear, and that’s somehow a bad thing
but idt we should criticize the girls in the bollywood saris either, i mean they’re revealing and flashy, but who cares? i like them, and it feels weird to hold this up as an ideal for indian women while the bollywood sari is trashed. traditional stuff can be sexy and people are allowed to have preferenced, but why knock down others who are different?
