Cheltenham tattoo tales

-
I had a great day yesterday at the Cheltenham Convention, held at the racecourse.  First stop I had my face and neck painted by Rizpah Brinkman, see above.
Then I swanned around the halls talking to anyone who would listen.  Below are those I interviewed and photographed.  I am worried I may have got some of the captions wrong!  Matching my notes to the people was tricky in some cases as I had so many conversations in the course of the day.
Over the next few weeks I will write a blog on each of them individually.

An overlap between my tattoo blog and my transition.

-

This is how I look after being on hormone treatment for 18 months and after two lots of facial feminisation surgery.  I have also had a lot of electrolysis on my beard.  I have been transformed.  And there is still quite a way to go yet. You can see some of my tattoos peeping out from the top of my dress.  It seems evident now that my quest for a full body suit is linked to my gender dysphoria.  I am not trying to suggest that everyone who gets a body suit suffer from dysphoria.  Not at all.  But in my case I think it is just one of a number of things I had been doing to change my appearance completely. Now my focus on being tattooed has dissipated as I continue my transition with my mind devoted now on my gender reassignment surgery scheduled for August of this year, 2020.  Once my transition is finished then I must finish the work currently in progress on my legs. You can follow my transition via my YouTube videos.  Just search for Zoë Genevieve Perry.

Tight lacing - an extreme body modification

-

My mind is focussed on just one kind of extreme body modification - heavy tattooing.  My body appearance has changed drastically in the past five years. But what are other people's body modifications of choice?  One is  a practice known as "tight lacing", in which the users of corsets embark on reducing their waist sizes to as small at 17 or 18 inches, if they can. It's not something that grabs me but Lacie here ( www.staylace.com ) has dedicated herself to the practice.  There are others like her who take it very seriously.  It's a fetish and not necessarily permanent.  If you give up regularly wearing this special kind of corset then you will eventually revert to normal. I have no plans to embark on this myself, but before I pass any judgement must reflect that what I am doing to myself is even more extreme.  The images here are truly eye catching.  I have never knowingly met anyone who is into tight lacing yet there is a big community out there who do it.
