The feminine/masculine dichotomy underlies modern thinking about sexuality; it's what's behind the pairing of butch and femme, queer and queen. It's not always that simple, though. I look androgynous and I like it that way, and I'm attracted to other people who look androgynous, too. The modern gay ideal of tall, muscle-bound, lantern-jawed, short-haired guys is the opposite of my tastes; I like the boyish-faced guys, and the short ones -- I'm particularly attracted to Latino men, partly because they tend to be shorter than black or white men. The girls I fancy tend to be free of feminine fripperies -- I like long hair, but I also like girls in jeans and T-shirts and no make-up or fancy hairdos, just a plain, healthy, natural look; and girls who are obviously girls but dressed in a boyish way I find very hot. Once in high school a girl whom I'd never much fancied, though I recognised that she was pretty, put on a boy's flannel shirt to act in a skit and I suddenly thought, "Wow!" I'd also have liked to wear the shirt myself. It's often like that; I pass a good-looking guy who's wearing the sort of clothes I like and I think, "Damn, he's hot!" and then, "I want a sweater like that!" Rather than being, as one is expected to be, attracted to my opposite, I am attracted to people who look the way I like to look. I just find androgyny attractive, in me and in other people.
Thoughts? Is anyone else like this?
