Kids? meet Elizabeth
Posted: Fri Jul 23, 2004 5:18 am
Hi girls,
Tonight was a landmark night, in fact just moments ago my daughter who is 21, and my son who is 17 both met Elizabeth tonight. I put on all my makeup, and a new top that I bought, that I have been dying to wear.
I came out of my bedroom and I could see my daughter's back, from down the hallway and across the livingroom to the far side where my wife's computer is located. I moved behind her very stealthily and put my hands over her eyes.
She pulled away agrily because she was trying to chat and said "stop it dad". As she turned to see my face she just smiled and said "you look cute" I told her I was very embarassed and that no one had ever seen me before and I was feeling very self concious.
Moments later my 17 year old son came out of his bedroom got himself a glass of icewater, then started talking to me about the CD I was listening to. This conversation went on for over 20 minutes when I finally asked him to tell me if this was bad for him.
He shrugged his shoulders and said "it really don't matter to me, if it makes you happy? go for it" Then I said "so you are ok with this?" and he said "dad, about 90% of my friends wear eye makeup everyday, it is just not that unusual for me to see guys in makeup"
From our previous discussions I knew that he was into the "Hard Core" rock music and identifies with the values of people who also like that music. Apparently differnt branches of this music genre identify with differnt things. My son does what is called "Hard Core Dancing", which is a bunch of good looking guys who are in really good physical condtion simulating aggressive fighting action, not at each other, but indiviually as an art form as it applies to the music. Anyway there is a branch that most of his friends belong to where part of the identification of supporting a certain music genre is wearing eye makeup.
So he is not shocked by it any more. And my daughter is the same. Except that for reasons that would not be that hard to guess, my daughter likes effeminate men, and says she is bisexual. And she has several crossdressing friends, so it is really no big deal to her.
Anway, here I am typing this, my daughter at my wife's computer lost in about 10 conversations. My son went back to his room, I am listening to some of my favorite mp3's, in my livingroom as Elizabeth, and everything is ok.
OK, I lied
I feel
TERRIFFIC!!!!!!
It was another happy day. There are starting to be more happy days than unhappy days. I feel the train leaving the station and I got a ticket to anywhere.
Love to all,
Elizabeth
