(Sorry) Female Is OK
Are you generally "afraid" of clowns, say, IT or any circus clown?
I always hated them, never thought they were funny, not even as four year old.
The Simpsons have some good episodes on this, right?
But a female clown might make a difference, what do you think?
She looks witty, clever... nice and friendly to me...
A female Canadian friend I met in Cuba decided to call me not friend but friendiene, hence this is a clowniene, do you agree?
This one taken at Fringe World.
Last time (2017? 2015?) I asked a member what "fringe" means.
"Strange" thing was it took him some time to answer!
Taking part again in Sami´s COLOURFULWORLD Monday Murals.

I've known some who are terrify of clowns
Coffee is on
Count me in!!
...fun.
The trend in English these days is to retire the feminine version of professional titles. So I’d just call her a clown. I don’t see why a woman couldn’t make herself just as creepy as a man, if that was her goal in becoming a clown. My memories of the circus are that the clowns were actually pretty amusing, but I can see now how some circus goers would have a different opinion.

Actually you are right. In German it goes on my nerves with the extra feminine version, but that is because they take both - in the beginning only, too. It does not bring more info, just takes longer to read...or not, like "Kolummnistin/Kolumnist" or "Leserin/Leser".
But then "friendiene" was creative,I think, or funny, a Canadian-German mixture as we really differ Freund and Freundin for everyone, no matter if couple or not.
This clown does look friendly and pretty too.
Thanks for participating Iris.
Good point.
I don't find them scary Iris, but then I didn't see IT, Aimee did and as a result she is terrified of them male or female 😱😰
I've never been scared of clowns but I always found them more annoying than funny. Like bugs.
Yes, that clown is less irritating than her male counterparts usually are.
Nice to see a female clown.
She's very pretty. Look at those eyes!
Such a lovely find, Iris.
Have a good week. :)
I don't mind clowns, although I know that many do not!
This is colourful.
All the best Jan
