Women are Men are Women are Men

Last night I had a dream about a Transsexual.
Which reminds me... here's something about me: I think I have a fetish for Transvestites.
There. I've never said that before. Now the world can know.

It's strange. It's a very weird double-standard. I am in no way attracted to butch women, but a Transvestite woman who changes her appearance to appear in a decidedly male-specific way is sexy. I think this is particular to overtly feminine women, however. It's not really any secret that I love the idea of male characteristics being attributed to extremely non-masculine women.

I can only assume--and am fairly certain--it is because of the gender bias that exists today. Men dominate society. When a beautiful women is said to have some male quality, she is immediately said to have power.

Freud's penis-envy, if you will.

...How un-original, Rachel.
