You don’t own me… . Photographers : @l.o.foto @taan.yuh Lighting: @l.o.foto Models: @kora_mdl and @kobikobiobi Direction and Styling: @korahamm . . . A commentary on gender stereotypes in the workplace and in power roles. Why is it that the more masculine presenting people are the dominant figures while the feminine people are the submissive? In this shoot we play with gender by swapping that stereotype not one way but two ways… It’s so important to me personally that people know they are free to present themselves however they please and shouldn’t feel obligated to fit any sort of mold or stereotype due to that preference in presentation. . Something that has affected me since I was a little girl is the forced submission that comes with presenting female. And I’m fed up. I refuse to let the next generation of people live in a world where they feel like they need to be a different gender (or race or religion) to be seen as equal. . POST ABOUT IT. MEET ABOUT IT. READ ABOUT IT. LETS FREAKING TALK ABOUT IT YOU GUYS?! . These things are not taboo and have existed without a name for years. We just finally have the words to express different experiences now. . Be you. Take power. Take charge. Be free. . . Had to post this one to the main. My twin @kobikobiobi and I cooked on like zero energy for this shoot. . . . I’m beyond proud to be surrounded by so many amazingly talented and creative people. The amount of work I’ve been able to take part in recently is a true testament to the community that I am involved in and the very same community that holds me up. I could never give back to the community 100% of what I owe them. But I will continue to express my gratitude for all the love and creativity you people inspire upon me. Thank you greatly. . . . #photoshoot #officesiren #genderswap #challenegeyourself #challengethenorm #breakthestigma #photography #model #modeling
