Persona 1: WHAT YOU WANT TO BE CONSIDERED AS
Persona 2: WHAT YOU FEAR TO BE CONSIDERED AS
This leads to a discussion about stereotypes and inner fears of getting misunderstood by the surroundings. Thoughts that every thinking modern day person does reflect upon. We're asking every day people from an innercity context where old categories as ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class are reassessed, why they choose to look like they do. We’re diggin' deep, peeling off garments, codes and attributes. We’re searching for transnational identities - is the conclusion that we choose whoever we want to be today?!
A 2FACED1 STATE OF MIND
A 2FACED1 is highly aware of existing stereotypes related to your own ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexuality and class. You’re trying to avoid them but sometimes also play with them to make people think twice about who you are. Two faced doesn’t mean anything negative here, it explains the double folded view you have on identity if you’re not the existing norm. It means you have the feet in different worlds, can move between them but feel rather at home in that space in between. You've stepped out of your comfort zone and have become one of the new identities where ol' categories are mashed up and rootlessness and non-given identity just means major possibilities.
2FACED1 is a state of mind, 2FACED1.com is a display-window for this mindset and the network of 2FACED1 includes all of you progressive non-stereotypes with a double perspective on identity.

Sham demoracies have many ugly tricks to maintain unequal power relations. One is the claiming to be a democratic society, but to advocate market economy aka capitalism as the only political alternative. Another is to internalize Monarchy aka elitism as a vital element for (a national) affinity. And even though I think it’s quite entertaining when the Swedish King shows that he’s just an ordinary douche who dresses in trash (bags) and buys strippers for tax money, I can ensure you that I’m totally against monarchy. Because justifing Monarchy is like pleading for a rebuilding of the Institution Of Race Biology and to propagate for heterosexism at the same time. So while the horrible glorification of princes, princesses, kings and queens continues, The Ultimate Guide To Survive Life During Wartime (Capitalism) is once again here to your rescue.
It’s time for Gypsie's Mega Trip's Survival Kit 3 - FUCK THE MONARCHY!
The Kings and Queens may seem secured by the Royal Prerogative that gives them immunity. But according to extremely reliable sources, Gypsie’s Mega Trip knows it doesn’t mean that they’re immune to everything… Therefore, an easy way to fuck with the Monarchy is to literally fuck the Monarchy. Dear people, the time has come.
FUCK THE MONARCHY – GIVE THE ROYALTIES AN STD!
I don’t know how it works in other countries, but in Sweden it’s kinda easy. Not just because the Swedish King likes to have sex ouside his royal monogamous marriage. But because if you get an STD in Sweden you have to call everyone you slept with, or let the STD-clinic send an anonymous, for example, chlamydia letter. So next time you get chlamydia, gonorrhea or whatever - report that you fucked the King. I promise that you’ll feel much better when you know that your stupidiy atleast gave an opportunity to fuck with the royal immunity!
N.B! – This should not be seen as an advocacy of sex without protection. Safe Sex - Safe Life as DR ALBAN said.

GYPSIE'S MEGA TRIP is style, riots and dirty talk. A mix of Nietzsche with a tramp stamp and Vatos Locos poststructural manifest. It’s the extended version of teen angst, a social experiment and the reinvention of life.
