The Femme Outre & Other Real Fakers:

Going Gaga for Artifice and Femininity in the 21st Century by Becca Klaver is up today over at Gaga Stimata! "So you see, I recognize you, Gaga. People like us – artists, poets, singers, dancers, fashionistas – need, or once needed, to perform, bedeck, exhibit our identities as others, little monsters, queers, aliens, artists. It happens in every town. And in every town, now, people know who you are. And so they know who we are: you made us all famous."
