Androgynous lookers

Oh go on then!

Though models are paid to be seen and not necessarily heard, the industry has lately become a platform for the transgender voice. Barneys, H&M, and Givenchy are just a handful of brands that have enlisted transgender talent to bring life to their ad campaigns; gender fluidity has been a pervading theme in collections as of late; and designers have looked to rising stars like Andreja Pejic, Lea T, and Hari Nef to walk their runways. Some of these famous faces’ stories have played out before our very eyes—most notably that of Pejic, who first came onto the scene as Andrej and posed as both male and female before transforming into the female model she is today.
Model Siobhan Atwell is taking a leaf from Pejic’s book. She announced publicly last month that she had made the decision to fully transition. She first came onto the modeling scene two years ago, and she quickly became a muse to Hood By Air designer (and gender-fluidity pioneer) Shayne Oliver.
 
I often have to go back and read stuff again. But when I first read this couple of sentences they so stayed with me, and like lots of other trans folks, true for me as well. I cried re-reading this...
Why nobody should ever talk nasty about trans people. I cant imagine how hard it is for people dealing with what you do. The few dollars in counseling, meds, surgery or whatever is needed is such a small amount to lose such potential to substance abuse, depression or self harm. Well, folks, stay well and I will do what little I can do by spreading the word that we should oppose those that would hate a group of people that really need our love and support. Be well.
 
I wanted to label myself,to find where I slotted on the gay scene. I flirted with this look and tried the masc look, but I kept migrating back to me.

As much we want to belong, and be someone, you can only be yourself.

I have masculine energy though. It's been described by some people. But I like my dresses, and heels, and my hoodies and jeans.
 
The flip side to that are women that have somewhat masculine features. Either way, it makes for an intriguing look that is quite lovely.
Intriguing is the perfect term.
I always seem to be drawn to “the middle” for lack of a better description. I love strong featured women with some masculine traits and soft featured men with an effeminate air.
I love a woman with hairy armpits bush and legs, but experience has proven to me that I prefer a smooth effeminate man, although I do prefer thick pubic hair regardless of gender… the list of contrasts goes on in my head forever 🙃
 
Just outrageously scrummy

I have to chime in in my usual unsolicited way and say that Paul is really sexy and hovers on the edge of androgyny, but I still see a masculine man more than anyone else… when I look at him I think, damn I bet his sister is smoking hot!! 😁
Love this thread btw, looking forward to following along as I amble along my exploratory journey in life ☀️

Romaine Brooks ~ Peter (A Young English Girl), 1923-1924, oil on canvas
Peter depicts British painter Hannah Gluckstein, heir to a catering empire who adopted the genderless professional name Gluck in the early 1920s. By the time Brooks met her at one of Natalie Barney's literary salons, Gluckstein had begun using the name Peyter (Peter) Gluck. She unapologetically wore men's suits and fedoras, clearly asserting the association between androgyny and lesbian identity. Brooks's carefully nuanced palette and quiet, empty space produced an image of refined and austere modernity. ~ The Art of Romaine Brooks, 2016

Very nice. I like you and dresses too.
I like when someone has to do a double take. Or maybe even a triple take to figure out who I am, and then they still don't know.

A trans woman friend of mine decided to dress as a dude for an event, and folks at the party asked who the gorgeous girl was. She is super confident and could wear a cowboy outfit and still look cute. Bitch.

I've had the confidence to go to the beach in a black bikini. And I admit people were really looking at me hard.... I just wished my bikini top was a little fuller.🤣
