is it weird that i have a fascination with androgyny?
b/c i dont have a problem with it, i am IN FACT fascinated (see above) with it.
Guys that look girls/girls that look like guys. Well, not that exactly. I like people who blur those lines, and i suppose that i can trace this back to when was about 15. I am going to say Boy George is the one that started it all for me. I plastered my wall with pictures of him, which was relatively hard to do, seeing as i was about 13 years too late to have any actual photos of him. I remember find old albums at the record exchange and devouring them. his tragic relationship with Jon just sucked me in. The denial and rejection of it all. I just couldnt make sense of it.
I always find these androgynistic (is that a word?) fascinating and sort of mysterious. I'm not sure why, but i do know that for me, things are never just black and white. I am a shades of gray kind of girl, and i always see every possible side to everything. it frustrates alot of people. its just me. So these people who walk that careful line between the genders are almost always enthrall me with thier beauty. I am not talking about transgendered or transexuals or whatever. That is a separate thing. Women who take on a slightly masculine quality, and men who embrace their femine side, thats what i am getting at here, but maybe thats not exactly the definition of androgny, but i dont care. Its not sexual, at least not at heart, not at its core. Maybe its the rejection of something that is considered natural, normal? These people who are not afraid to be themselves, they should be celebrated.
