Androgynous people are just so attractive, men or women. They are just strangely pretty.

[JamesV]

This is a great example of people being *who they are* for *themselves* and NOT for *society*, I love their *confidence!*

[XxNekoMoonxX]

why do people think androgynous came from tumblr it literally existed in the victorian era lmao

[ellahere]

So "Androgynous" means really, really hot

[samantha-uesy]

adrogynous girls are hella attractive to me.

[QueenHalo]

Wow there's a lot of ignorance in the comments. Guys, androgynous is not a sexuality or a gender, it's a way of presenting. It's not gender identity it's gender expression. And it's a real thing. This has nothing to do with tumblr

[delightsarahgenturalez]

I was bullied since I was little for not acting and being girly. I am often mistaken of being lesbian, but in reality, I'm not. This video boosted my self esteem.

[izzad]

the one girl with blonde hair, daym. i'll take androgynous any day.

[ruthwale]

why are they all so hot, i can't take it

[ChuckTheBossX]

buzzfeed should really consider turning its name into tumblr

[Kay-bjsv]

The comments on here are so horrendous.
(i) Androgyny is NOT a gender identity. Stop saying "I identify as a rock". You're being ignorant and invalidating non-binary people's existences .
(ii) Androgyny isn't a new 'internet/tumblr' thing. Androgyny has been around since the existence of humanity, just like all those 'touchy subjects' people get uncomfortable around. There's just more awareness regarding it now.
(iii) No Buzzfeed hasn't run out of ideas. I thought this was a great video idea to give us insight into the lives of androgynous models. Gender ambiguity and it's expression is beautiful
(iv) C'mon its 2016. No matter what gender you are, you should be able to wear/dress any way you want. Screw gender roles.

You guys should be more considerate and compassionate about different people. It's unfair to hate on someone because you don't understand them.

[jesse]

This just made me wanna cut my hair short

[twosecondboy]

God this comment section is nasty. I personally think theyre motherfucking beautiful people, ok? And theres no damn need to make fun of genderqueer ppl 24/7, like dont yall ever take a break??

[emmawow]

I mean Bowie and Jagger were both androgynous men so it's actually been around for a while

[EristhePlanet]

are all of these women hot or is it just me? *questions sexuality*

[ellebelly]

I'm going through a rough time in my life where I don't feel like a girl anymore.




I feel like a chicken

[NothingProductiveProductions]

Just clicked on the vid because I didn't know what androgynous meant😂

[kendrabernot]

who's the blonde girl she's flawless

[Xilotl]

It's hard for me because my parents won't let me buy from the boy's or men's section and I REALLY WANT to. I can't be myself as long as I live with them. When I move out, I WILL be able to be myself. One of my uncles really accepts that and I can be myself around him (and one of my cousins), but if I start being myself now, my whole family will start shying away from me. Also, because of how I look, many people think I'm lesbian (which is way I can't find a boyfriend). I embrace what I am, it's just my family that stops me.
