Stavo camminando per una vecchia città in Germania e mi sono imbattuto in questo.
Essendo asiatico, mi sembra un po’ strano dato che ho familiarità con il kimono: sono curioso di sapere cosa pensano gli altri.

seems like a cool project promoting diversity and teaching about queer culture, thanks for showing this.
It’s an art installation called “The Only Male Geisha,” and features Einosuke Hirose, who is apparently quite well-known in Japan and is, well, the only male geisha in Japan.
It’s Nuremberg’s attempt to present itself as a city of diversity. Personally, I’m not impressed by a city that has to *claim* to be open to diversity and wish more effort would go in to actually *being* so; but whatever, the person you see there actually is a geisha and that is what he wears in that role, so I don’t think this is disrespectful to the culture.
A lot of people all over the world are familiar with kimonos btw.
