Widening the bandwidth of being male

I posted this quote from cbb on the ginuwine thread:
Andrew said (about dragging up) that as a “heterosexual male from the north” he wanted to “break that gender barrier between a heterosexual male drinking beer down the pub called Dan and Dave, and bring in this heterosexual male who’s comfortable with himself…”

So, I thought it would be fun to create a thread for us all to post our favourite examples of this.

Any male who supports the statement 'transwomen are women, no debate' are widening the bandwidth of being male.

Eddie looked great when he was a bloke wearing Not women's clothes.
Now he's a woman wearing woman's clothes, he looks dreadful (here's a tip Eddie, not everyone suits bright red lipstick)

How did Eddie Izzard go from that to 'I have boy days where I like football and girl days where I like shopping'

Hang on Shock I thought this was supposed to hetero men or I’d have got Boy George on page 1!

First ever crush, way back in ‘82/‘83 [wistful]

Some credit is definitely due to him for my GNC ways. Cheers, George!

Boy George, remember when we didn't know if he was a boy or a girl but we all loved Culture Club anyway?

What, like there’s a labelled axis of gender identity, with units of measurement Hmm

Dumb as fuck attempt at science-washing.

Kinda sad/noticeable that Bowie didn't widen "Male" enough to push the pram though, isn't it

One of the biggest players to walk the earth widening the bandwidth of maleness

PocketCoffeeEspresso · 10/01/2018 20:24

That's at about 2..

Although he's never been afraid of the towel/sarong as lower body clothing of a weekend either.

Franklin D Roosevelt as a young boy (I have photos of my grandad at a similar age wearing a dress too)

I'm only just hitting 40, and I have pictures of my dad, with beautiful curls, in a dress - totally normal.

Amethyst975 · 10/01/2018 20:15

GrooovyLass - I adored the Manics as a teenager! Grin What’s Nicky’s take on the trans movement? Have you heard/read anything? He was never very shy about making his opinions heard! Wink

Sorry, hope I’m not derailing...

(Lovely painting btw - just did a reverse image search for you, and it's Zoffany, "The Blunt children around 1765")

Strawberries - pre nappies, boys and girls were both dressed alike in dresses up until they were toilet trained - much easier to lift a skirt out the way and hold them somewhere convenient!
