Blue toe nails

The other day i was in the salon. I had only planned on getting a new gel coat on my fingers but it was raining and i decided to get my toes done as well. As i settled back in my chair and turned on the message i noticed the young woman next to me had a lovely robin's egg blue color on her toes. Mmmm, i had picked my usual red but maybe i could handle a change? "Might i please have blue". I spent some time wondering if i did the right thing. To me my toes stood out more than ever and maybe in not the right way.

Last night i wore sandals to a meeting and got compliments from one of the women there as well as a gay hairdresser who i just love. What fun.

If the chance comes to play with toe color give it a try! Maybe next time i'll do green and disappear into the grass.

Hugs,

Charlize

Now the summer is well on its way the time is here :) . Last year I just had pink which was good because it wasn't too obvious and minor chips were not readily visible so Ok for days. It is time to be more bold :blush:

It's good to hear things went well Charlize :) x

I've never put much thought in the colors I use, and never considered if I would. Right now they are maroon, but I love the brighter colors like pink and red. I'll have to find a bright blue. Sounds nice!

I just got back from the bank and the wonderful teller there mentioned that she loved the color. I'm a bit old to manage it or she would have had my foot appear in her window.

I'm growing to really like this color!

Hugs,

Charlize

I just got a pedi with the works last weekend and went with a metallic eggplant purple. Before that it was a lilac purple and before that it was a metallic green. I love switching the colors up!

For the last year my toes have had a wide variety of colors. As I'm not out at work I wear sneakers most of the time but it still feels great to see them painted everyday.

Still in man-mode most of the time, but I can do my toenails! Currently metallic cherry red, but I like blue, orange and green too! Darker colors with maybe a sprinkle of gold and silver.

I just recently painted my toes. I could not decide on the color so I went with red (big toe) then yellow, then blue, red, then yellow/blue on small toe. I am only in girlie mode at home. But I do like having them painted.

Does anyone wear toe rings? I have three on each foot. Would have more but I am out of room.

Mine are a very cool blue color called Typhoon.

How can you go wrong with a color called Typhoon.

I was at Sephora the other day, and I got tons of complements on the color.

I've been painting mine a metallic, sky blue-like color for a while now. It's fun being able to accessorize with a bit of color!

A while back, I was getting a pedicure and decided on a blue-ish color for my toes. As they were drying an older lady asked if I was going to be wearing a dress soon of that same color. I looked down and paused for a second (I was actually thinking if I ever own a dress in that color). Then I looked up and said "No, no, I just thought it would be a fun color to wear for summer."

She agreed "Well it is a fun color."

      I have read some of it, mostly in areas specifically targeted at the LGBTQ+ peoples.   You also have to take into account what and who is behind the words, not just the words themselves. Together that creates context, right? Let's take some examples, under the Department of Health & Human Services section:   "Radical actors inside and outside government are promoting harmful identity politics that replaces biological sex with subjective notions of “gender identity” and bases a person’s worth on his or her race, sex, or other identities. This destructive dogma, under the guise of “equity,” threatens American’s fundamental liberties as well as the health and well-being of children and adults alike."   or   "Families comprised of a married mother, father, and their children are the foundation of a well-ordered nation and healthy society. Unfortunately, family policies and programs under President Biden’s HHS are fraught with agenda items focusing on “LGBTQ+ equity,” subsidizing single-motherhood, disincentivizing work, and penalizing marriage. These policies should be repealed and replaced by policies that support the formation of stable, married, nuclear families."   From a wording perspective, who doesn't want to protect the health and well-being of Americans or think that families aren't good for America? But let's take a look at the author, Roger Severino. He's well-quoted to be against LGBTQ+ anything, has standard christian nationalist views, supports conversion therapy, etc.   So when he uses words like "threatens the health and well-being of children and adults alike" it's not about actual health, it's about enforcing cis-gendered ideology because he (and the rest of the Heritage Foundation) believe LGBTQ+ people and communities are harmful. Or when he invokes the family through the lens of, let's just say dog whistles including the "penalization of marriage" (how and where?!), he idealizes families involving marriage of a "biological male to a biological female" and associates LGBTQ+ family equity as something unhealthy.   Who are the radical actors? Who is telling people to be trans, gay, or queer in general? No one. The idea that there can be any sort of equity between LGBTQ+ people and "normal" cis people is abhorrent to the author, so the loaded language of radical/destructive/guise/threaten are used. Families that he believes are "good" are stable/well-ordered/healthy, specifically married/nuclear ones.   Start looking into intersectionality of oppression of non-privileged groups and how that affects the concept of the family and you will understand that these platitudes are thinly veiled wrappers for christian nationalist ideology.   What's wrong with equity for queer families, to allow them full rights as parents, who are bringing up smart and able children? Or single mothers who are working three jobs to get food on plates?

      Well yesterday didn't work like I wanted to. I met a guy and started talking and he was wanting to be in a relationship. I asked my kids on how they thought of me dating a man and they said gross and said no. I guess it's time to look for women. I think that is going to be harder. Oh well I guess.

      This topic reminds me of the lyrics to the Beatles song, "A Little Help From My Friends."   "What do you see when you turn out the lights?"   "I can't tell you but I know it's mine."   Carolyn Marie

      @Ivy have you read the actual document?   Has anyone else out there read it?
    • Abigail Genevieve
      I am reading the Project 2025 document https://www.project2025.org/policy/   This will take some time.  I read the forward and I want to read it again later.   I read some criticism of it outside here and I will be looking for it in the light of what has been posted here and there.  Some of the criticism is bosh.   @MaeBe have you read the actual document?

      No problem!

      Old topic, but I gotta say my favorites are: "Stop hitting on minors" (doesn't work if you're holder tho) and "Sure as [squid] not you"
    • Carolyn Marie
      Abigail, I think we will just leave the other posts where they are, and the discussion can start anew here.  It is possible to do what you ask, but would disrupt the flow of the discussion in the other thread, and would require more work than it's worth.   Carolyn Marie

      I am in too good a mood to earn my certificate today. I am sure something will happen that will put me on the path to earning it.

      It's likely most cis-women consider a fitting unnecessary "because they know what  they wear" and get used to the wrong size.  The instructions for what your size is are simple and why go to any further effort?  You measure your bandsize and you measure your max and subtract the two to get the needed info for the cup size.  Then you buy the same size for years until it hurts or something.

      Congratulations Lorelei! Yes, it is a powerful feeling to have the documents that say "you are you".
