Profile: the cat on bass

the cat on bass

You can call me… the cat on bass

I identify as… genderqueer, transister, butch androphile, and occasionally an Elvis impersonator

As far as third-person pronouns go, … don’t much care

I’m attracted to… interesting smart people.

When people talk about me, I want them to… Use gestures and silly voices. :)

I want people to understand… people make the rules. people can change them.

About the cat on bass
Raised a working class rural girl in the 60s & 70s, a brainy tomboy hermit. My parent was supportive of my uniqueness. Became a bass player, mechanic, writer. Managed to marry another oddball & have children. Now older, wiser, out and proud. I dream of having a suit of fine vintage menswear and the panache to wear it correctly.

    I also share in your dream. My first baby step will be taken when I rent a tux for my friends’ wedding (where I’ll be the best man!).

    If you look in a charity shop / thrift store, you may find an affordable one in good condition… I’ve got both a tailcoat and a tuxedo, and now I’m keen on leather ones, plus high-heel oxfords made of patent leather :).

    I want to be like you when I grow up. Particularly with regard to the panache part.
