Abstract

Using Grounded Theory, this research examines contemporary attitudes towards gender conforming and non-conforming appearance modes. Findings indicate three themes: philosophy of clothing, using clothes to create cisgender appearances, and using clothes to create binary appearances. The latter two categories references issues of passing and safety.
