11 - 8 - 19  Photographed Red today, who is 18 years of age.  He is a student and lives in Harlem with his family.  Very articulate about being non-binary.  These are Red's words, "to men, being non-binary means that I never identified with the ideas of traditional masculinity or femininity.  I've felt I've been forced to take them on, they tended to make my life miserable.  I've always been frustrated with the things I 'can' and 'cannot' do in terms of my gender at birth.. I've always loved make-up, nail polish and also liked cologne, suits and ties.  I liked playing with Barbies and action figures, love having a beard, feeling tough, but sometimes want to be treated like a princes.  I wanted out of the constraints that I found myself put in.  I don't like the iea of 'being a man' nor do I like the ideal of /being a woman' and find myself more comfortable in the middle, breaking the roles of both .  In terms of identification I'm still figuring that out.  I might be androgynous or maybe dem-boy.  If someone asks me I might say 'gender fuck' because it sounds cool, even though I don't identify with that term.
