1. feminine vs. masculine. In appearance and interests, I am a very traditionally feminine person. Because of this, assumptions are made about my personality that are not necessarily true. In personality, I have more stereotypically male characterstics, especially in my relationships with others. For this photo, I would be standing in my ballet studio doing a stretch looking out into the camera. The "other" me would be standing with my back to the camera looking into the mirror.
2. wanting to highlight my Polish heritage vs. conforming with American culture. As a first generation immigrant with non-English speaking parents, I've often been faced with challenges. In this photo, I would wear clothing that symbolizes what the differences between the cultures mean to me.
3. perceived age vs. actual age. I'm often perceived to be much younger than I actually am so I often try to make myself appear older in order to be taken more seriously.
