The Not-So-Happy Couple? What Makes You Say That?

So, who will be the first to say something? Anything? Let's hope someone speaks up soon!


I am home for the day, as I feel like absolute shit at the moment. Having inner ear issues, which is throwing off my sense of balance .. which can be seen in this caption, where I used a Dutch angle to highlight some of the off-kilter ideas I am presenting here .. well off-kilter if you aren't a regular visitor to this blog at at least!

But I wanted to highlight some of the "grass is greener on the other side" thoughts that we have when it comes to gender and identity. What one person sees as less than ideal set of parameters to work with, others might think of it as a charming quirk that is enviable. Who's to say what is right or wrong?

And this caption was pretty much a happy accident, as I was finishing up lunch at home, hoping I could keep some food down (I've had vertigo over the last 18 hours or so!) and I hopped on Pinterest, figuring there might be something there that I could work into a caption, and this photo came through the feed.

It just grabbed me, the contrasts between their height, foot size, and almost everything else about the couple .. and just how they posed with each other. Something was there that I needed to highlight. I am not even that fond of the overall snapshot, but what was contained inside content wise needed to be explained and elaborated upon. Hopefully the complete picture and thoughts each made an impact.

If you can't quite follow it, you should read the caption across the picture from left to right, then back again. I wanted them to be concurrent thoughts in their new heads so it's slightly staggered .. and I actually flipped the source picture so that his size could be used as a design element. Thought that might work on a subconscious level to show the new points of view. Whether that worked or not is up to you, the readers. Just something I thought might give a bit more depth to the complete work.


Let's talk about this blog exclusive in the comments, and see if you can think of other things that these two would have thought about that I didn't cover in the caption. I'd like to see what you can come up with! Don't be too shy!
