In-Habit is a unique month of live arts events in February 2010. Created through a artist residence with Punctum live arts company and the Abbotsford Convent throughout 2009, researching site/place/space and cultural exchange. In-Habit is a season of eleven live art and performance events resulting from that residency. In-Habit investigates connections between people and place with a focus on cultural exchange.

A little inspired by Facebook's Honesty Box application - what advice would you give me, or what should improve about myself in the coming year?

because I am not on T, I assume people see me the way the government sees me, that is as a cis women, it turns out that sometimes I am wrong, went out this morning, without coffee and without my binder, on a mission to find milk and bread, I throw on the first shirt I found, trying not to wake those in my house who where sleeping and bleary eyed stumbled into the supermarket, a small child ran into me, cute, it happens, it didn't hurt, "mind the man", her mother snapped, and grabbed the kids arm, I couldn't help but feel a little pride, even keeping agreeing with dean when he says
I’m supposed to be wholly joyous when I get called “sir” or “boy.” How could I ever have such an uncomplicated relationship to that moment? Each time I’m sirred I know both that my look is doing what I want it to do, and that the reason people can assign male gender to me easily is because they don’t believe women have short hair, and because, as Garber has asserted, the existence of maleness as the generic means that fewer visual clues of maleness are required to achieve male gender attribution. link
That without any attempt to be read as male, it happens anyway, but the thing is I have *no idea* how often this happens, because I don't get feedback, often I open my mouth first and my fucking squeeky arsed voice makes people re-consider, but times like this, I guess, I just feel a little more comfortable in my skin.
