AI Imagery: Mature Trans Femme Lesbian, Gulliver tied down by the Lilliputians

I recently met two old friends and colleagues for dinner at a distinctly old school restaurant. We each talked about the effoorts we'd made to end up where we were in our lives that day. I suggested that I finally felt free of the people holding me down, like the Lilliputians who tied Gulliver down to the beach. My condition being held down Of Human Bondage was developed by parents, siblings, family, lovers, children (who I hold blameless), society, systems, careers, promotions, expectations, norms, heteronomativity, cisnormativity, etc.

If you have enough little people, and enough tiny threads, you can hold about anything down.

I went to OpenAI, first time I've used it. My prompt was:

create image of older mature femme transgender woman Gulliver, dressed in transgender colors, wearing purple hair, being tied down by LIllilputians

I did not get the purple hair I asked for. I'm sure there's nuances in prompt engineering, but this one certainly served well, and better than any rough sketch I would have made.

I am 67 years old and I am finally working to stand up on my own. It really took a long time.
