Androgyny..What's that??

Before I start posting things about androgyny... I will tell you a little bit more of what it actually means.

The term comes from the greek words:

adr -> Man and gyne-> meaning woman.

When combining these two words we can use it as Androgyny, this refers to the combination of masculinity and femininity characteristic that we can lately find in fashion, gender identity, sexual identity of even sexual lifestyle.

An Androgyne person is one that does not specific fit in in the typicial female of male roleof their society. Most of them identify themselves as being mentally between a man and woman or as totally genderless.

Now that you know what this is...

It's time to post some cool stuff/fashion about these guys...

 

Power Ladies..Fist up high

What is it?

This is the new MAC cosmetics campaign.

as you can see Jelena Abbou ( Figure competitor ) the face of MAC's new strength campaign.

Why is it cool?

The reason why this is cool, is because for a long time when we think of makeup we think of really feminine ladies wearing all kind of girly clothes.

But do you remember this photo?

Somehow when I see MAC's new campaign all I can think of is this picture!

I believe that MAC is trying to tell us.

The reason why this has future growth potential is because by using these type of campaigns it not only speaks to the female consumers but might also attract other genders for example the metrosexuals that would love to use a BB cream.

Masculinity/Femininity?

Around the 60's we used to live in a society were man not only use to cut the meat on the table but was also the boss. Now a days this all came to an end... and were seeing that this role has changed.
For these couple of weeks I'll be posting a little bit more about the trend Masculinity and Femininity.

Back to reality...

Hey Guys...
First of all I know it's already the 23th of january but I still want to wish everyone a happy joyful new year!
As you've noticed I haven't been blogging for a while now..
I had to receive the sad news that my father passed away, still having exams at school and then going to curacao for the funeral etc and of course still try to enjoy while I was there.
So I took a long break but now I'am back!
As much as I have sad news, I also have good news... since last december I'am now engaged! so I will be sharing with you on my blog my journey to my tropical wedding! (Well that's what I hope anyway a tropical wedding LOL).

I'll keep you posted.
xoxo
