Sort of a long and rambling rant
Jun. 25th, 2010 02:22 pmDear writers:
Please remember that there is a lot more to passing as a different gender than wearing the right clothes. Like, a LOT more. The idea that all a woman has to do to be seen as a guy is wear a tux and drop her voice a bit? Yeah, sorry son. There's more to it than that, and it's more than a little naive and offensive to assume there isn't.
( on passing, gender roles, clothing, and tropes )
