The Androgynous Look


Sammie

Recommended Posts

The best lines of Hedwig and The Angry Inch are from the song Wicked Little Town:

I was just a boy

And you were so much more

Than any god could ever plan,

More than a woman or a man.

Sniff sniff... *hides tears of emotion*

Youtube video:

AWESOMENESS!!!

ps:Love the george joke. hehe.

I think the androgynous look can be quite pretty, but could never pull it off myself... Though I often buy men's clothes certain attributes assert themselves no matter what...

I have the same problem. There's no hiding some things.

(and that Rolling Stones cover? Best picture I've seen of any couple, anyone know who did the posing and photography on that?)

That was was Annie Leibovitz.

Thanks, Ack42. Amazing.

Boys Don't Cry always make me cry and it can hurt to watch it. There is also a documentary with all of the real people in it:

The Brandon Teena Story

And Brandon himself:

Oh my I was just talking to NID about this movie, Kelly. I have been meaning to get around to watching this movie again--I think I've seen it two or three times, but I just cry so much when I watch it.

Hmm, I wonder if NID has seen Ma Vie en Rose.

Androgynous people are so cool and fascinating!

The only one I can think of is Kalan Porter, who was on Canadian Idol.

I think it's a guy :huh: It's cool though!

ETA: Yeah it's a guy. xD

Oh, and has anyone played Harvest Moon: Magical Melody? Jamie, anyone?

This is a fantastic thread and I love the pictures (even though I don't know who some of the younger people are).

Re: Angels tend to be androgynous. I think this is an excuse for someone more computer savvy than me to post another picture of Alan Rickman - as an angel in Dogma.

I think most art from the Middle Ages in Europe portrays everyone as rather androgynous. Maybe not always in clothing, but the male and female faces always seem to look the same.

I'll try and get some Androgyny pictures of me on here soon. In the meantime, here's an awesome model who comes off as androgynous.

Besides angels ('cept for Professor Snape), Hindu gods are often androgynous. Here is, of course, the god Krishna:

The god Shiva:

Bahuchara, the goddess of transsexuals:

And Ardhanarisvara, the god/goddess of androgyny:

I'm also loving the hat, I've got one of my own. It's what the "F" in my username stands for "Fedora".

The world needs more awesome hats. :D

EDIT: Photo gone, I generally don't like pictures of myself. Maybe I'll get one of the hat alone.

Aw, thanks guys! :D

I do love my fedora, but I want a good top hat as well. My boyfriend has one, but it eats my head.

Case in point:
