celebrating and creating our own LGBTQI+ history in honour of Sheila McWattie

Day six

Party Victoria Avenue 1982 (ish)

A Dyke History Trilogy: part three

They were designer shoes. Not top designer but still…

Kitten heels. Matched the purple striped dungarees

Bought for my first ever women’s party.

I loved those dungarees.

‘But I didn’t know high heels were a subjugating tool of the patriarchy’

I apologised to the scary looking woman.

With the close-cropped hair.

I took them off and danced and danced.
