#extreme makeup

I'm tired of forms of flamboyant self-expression being regulated and relegated to a very specific "time and place." I'm tired of worrying about policy changes in businesses targeting supposed "extreme" self-expression and being forced to leave public places due to discrimination. I'm tired of face paint being regarded as a safety issue regarding face obscuring/concealment as though it's not a crucial part of personal identity expression. I'm tired of school and workplace discrimination.

Not everyone who has a very flamboyant appearance wants to be a rock star or performance artist. Some of us want to practice Medicine, Law, or be a government official of some sort. Yet there are no activism or advocacy or other social movements pertaining specifically to flamboyant self-expression through appearance. Why is this? Even on Tumblr, this particular social activism issue is greatly overlooked as though it's not an important and fundamental human right.

One thing's for sure — the heavier the makeup, the crazier the lady.
