Fashion Accessories

My $6 pink sunhat from Walmart gets several coos of appreciation per hour at camp. Things that would be a fashion faux pas in London, go down very well here. I went into someone's kitchen to wax my legs today and got asked whether I ever went "au naturel" - well only between waxes when I hide my legs under trousers and socks. My conditioning is that body hair on legs and armpits is somehow "ugly" or "butch". Here, on the border of Western Massachusetts and Connecticut it seems like most of the women, regardless of sexuality, are sporting fluffy armpits. I can think of at least 5 women volunteers whose legs are manlike they are so hairy. I'm getting used to the armpits, but the legs ... hmm... fashion and conditioning are interesting things - as after all, we were designed to have body fluff.
"Walkers" (or zimmer frames as we call 'em back home) are the fashion accessories of the seniors! A bright blue model with an attached shopping basket appears to be the most popular one! When (and if!) your time comes, I suggest going for one that's light, easily foldable and the right height. Some of the ladies have floral covered walking sticks! Yes, there is even fashion to be had in disability.
