The first picture was probably never the real Becky and the Becky we know now is actually her at her most genuine self. A lot of lesbians present more femme before they come out of the closet and learn to accept themselves, so her with makeup on was probably her trying to hide who she really was. I think the butch Becky we all know now is a more accurate portrayal of her true self and i bet she's probably happier and more comfortable dressing like a manchild now then she did back then. Unfortunately for her, her true authentic identity just happens to be an emotionally stunted, unambitious lazy slob.
I do agree that Amber definitely doesn't help her situation though. She's not exactly out there encouraging Becky to flourish into the best version of herself. Why do that when you can keep her locked down and isolated and have your own personal Burger king chauffeur? If Becky had any self-esteem she would be out of there, which is why it's important for Amber to keep emotionally manipulating her and to cultivate the most unhappy and co-dependent environment possible.
I both agree & disagree.
I think that presenting more butch is probably more true to the "real" Becky, but I don't think that the way she dresses presently is the "real" Becky either. Her clothing choices haven't just gotten more boyish over the years, they've also gotten much more lazy. Even by lesbian standards. People often point out that it's not like there's a lack of masculine dyke-wear that looks put-together and presentable. But she's stopped caring about her appearance in general ever since she gave up her job & stopped going out in public.
Someone in the Becky fashion thread was saying that her apparel (most notably her wearing pajamas as pants) has all of the hallmarks of social shut-in depression-wear. It kind of made me think. I had always just assumed that Becky's clothing choices came down to terrible taste, but I wonder how much of her clashing, lounge-wear style comes from just not giving a fuck because she doesn't go anywhere or do anything?
I don't know if we've ever actually seen Becky presenting as her most genuine self because I'm not so sure that Becky cares enough about life to put herself together in a way that even she at least likes.
