Carve this on marble so we never forget
Con-She is an artist who has to remain anonymous because the art world has a bad case of gender goofiness and if the activists within art knew who she was, they’d try to destroy her life like the activists in music tried to destroy Christian Henson’s earlier in the week.
Well, she just sent me this. It’s perfect, I think.
Mazal tov to Con-She, who speaks as the conscience of her field. I've lost friends and my sons won't talk to me, since I've written about my experiences of the woo back in the 1990s, when my then husband put on make-up and dresses, went down the rabbit hole. But, I have my voice, and my PTSD mostly went away. My real friends are family now and we talk truth. When we can, we speak it loudly, firmly and broadly. We'll get there if we live long enough. Take care of yourselves~
