So, not a post from us, but a link to a really great feature from Dottie Lux on the fab 21 Century Burlesque site on Facebook’s name policy… Some very thought provoking and valuable points are made here on the importance of your name – and not just a performing name, people choose their names for other reasons: survivors of domestic violence might choose to live under a different name for protection, members the trans gender community obviously can’t go by the name on their birth certificate and there’s also various other people who have lived their life with a name different to that on their birth certificate for various reasons… Head over here and have a read…
