"Perfectionism is the voice of the oppressor."
Perfectionism can feel like a heavy weight, silencing our creativity and demanding we fit into impossible molds. This voice of the oppressor often tries to stifle the beauty of our authentic selves. Creativity isn’t about being perfect - it’s about being free, expressing our truths, and finding joy in the act of creation itself. When we let go of perfectionism, we make space for boldness, playfulness, and the kind of art that celebrates who we are. Being a Joyful Queer means embracing imperfection as a source of power and joy.
