Not feeling safe in public is a big reason my fashion style is so plain
@vahnj As someone who presents in a way that is very obviously queer, I feel super unsafe in public spaces that aren't specifically known for being queer friendly.
...but now that I'm sort of out in presentation, the thought of going back to plain style makes me far more uncomfortable than the fear & vulnerability does.
I think if I didn't have a stable and reliable source of income, I'd feel differently.
