Politically Neutral Selfies?

Not a hookup but a feeling/experience that begs incorporation, lest the saga suffer potholes. I'm currently acting out what I finally recognise as an alter-ego/avatar, and my only defence against this dissonance taking insidious root and being anything other than 'serious' play? 

This blog. 

 It's a session of updating my user selfiez that's made me realise this. I'm flaunting and flexing like the world is watching, when in fact I'm unflatteringly lit by not lime but skylight, in the least glamorous setting; a boys room, with its accompanying smells and sceptic surfaces and familiar chaos (I love it. Is this how post-industrial God feels about the world today?).

Oh fuck. Even as I write this, I've been rejected because of misrepresentation. I haven't properly curated my selfiez, and this lawyer-cum-National supporter who'd previously expressed an interest has gone cold, thanks wholly to selfiez that sell me as overly-intense/activist/pro-cuordoroy. 

I could already sense a right-wing fragility in this guy, and could've avoided scaring the poor dear off with closer attention to selfie-detail. 

Note to selfies; when dangled for sex these are ideally apolitical, especially prior to establishing a recipients stance. If political stance is known, indulge! Especially if there are fetishised radical leanings to manipulate. Try a Che Guevara tee with sativa accessories for your typical lefty, and for the far-right perhaps a suit and monocle with discreet swastika cuff links. 

But what's overtly political about my shoulder length hair and beard? Any statement either would've made in the sixties has well and truly worn down to banal appropriation. Was this guy raised in a commune? 

Also in my last post I mentioned a hookup with a Fijian/Persian boy who'd been made to feel awful about himself while out one night on Auckland's fag strip, some punters critically citing his grindr profile rather than extending fellow feeling to someone obviously pretty fresh. How fucked. I despair of this country's normalised prejudice against Asians and Indians (broad terms), and am convinced that's what this was; racism in the cloth of deferred righteousness. 

Fuck you oh nameless offender. There's no community for any of us, gay or straight, with these pricks running amok. I hope your family renounced you when you came out, it's probably what you deserved. 

Kidding, that's not a time I'd wish on anyone. 

What cunts though.
