Thoughts On Androgyny











Not everyone will be as taken by Australian model Cooper Thompson as I am. Why is that? I have noticed lately that a large portion of the gay community (if such a thing even exists anymore) is becoming increasingly devoted to enforcing normative gender roles, and I think this is largely due to their own fear and self-loathing. They want everyone to know that they are "real men", and "just like everyone else." They are becoming just as blinkered and bigoted as the people we have been fighting against since Stonewall. You see it whenever someone suggests that a young man get a haircut because he "looks like a lesbian." I don't have time for these people. These people are part of the problem. If you can't look at someone like Cooper and see the beauty in that face, it can only be because your soul has died.
