Mani/Pedi

Manicures and pedicures is the topic for this session. I can describe my endless obsession over my nails for the next three years. Here is an intro.

Before my first manicure I almost never noticed a woman's hands non-the-less a mani. I was preoccupied with other feminine qualities. However, sometime in 2005 or 06 that all changed. I am not even sure how, but I can venture to guess that it was inspired by my modeling.

I suppose my first ten or more manis were quite exhilarating and embarrassing. I felt alone in a sea of suburban lady's and vietnamese manicurists. Incredibly aware of my surrounds I noticed and heard everything, overly concerned of being the topic of a brief discussion. Glares from left and right made me nervous.

Mind you I have learned since that they don't care, really. After all they are there for their nails and it is that common obsession that provides the key to the gates. Do you see?

Effeminate as I am and confident to be present as a true genetic, there is almost no concern to my presence. I am as them. I blend in and all those early fears are gone.

Pretty neat, right? Ah yes I have learned through the years how to blend and how to pass unnoticed.

More on this topic later.
