When did you stop going to a
hairdresser? Your thoughts about androgyinity?
I think I was about 15 years old the last time I was at a
hairdresser. After that, my friends were the only ones who'd cut my
long hair.
Androgynity – a trend, blown out of proportion for the masses.
There have always been people whose look was pleasing or not, there
have been man-like women and men with tender facial features.
Androgynity has been largely picked up by the gay community, which
made it even more popular.
Let's take the 60-70's music and surf cultures, boys were skinny,
had long hair and a lot of them had sophisticated facial features and
an overall refined appearance, but nobody would talk about
androgynitity, as men would still behave themselves as men.
I don't consider myself and androgen as I am a man in all senses
of this word and thank God I don't fall under the statement that a
man should only be a little prettier than an ape.
It would make more sense if those who use this term
would actually consider the word's actual meaning and look a bit into
mythology, where it's said that Androgenes where mythical creatures
that combined male and female sexual traits, thus becoming sexless.
That's why I can't understand how a 100% boy or a
100% girl can be called an androgen.
