Genderfuck

In which Pica talks about this word.

And makes a mistake, the discussion was about genderqueer - a word I don't really have a problem with now.

also genderfuck is more about an activity/a presentation etc not really a gender identity.

IMO the phrase genderfuck relates to deliberately clashing gender signifiers so as to surprise/shock etc -- the use of the word "fuck"is there to sound aggressive and in-your-face. It would apply to something like wearing a floral dress and having a beard and scary-looking tattoos

Isn't there already a wikipedia article on androgynes? I think a member of the Yahoo Androgynes group I'm a member of wrote a lot of the article, as zie also has an Androgynes webpage. Although, being wiki, the article could have changed a lot by now.

I agree with you about genderfuck - it is a verb. Someone may want to "fuck with your mind" or "fuck with your ideas of gender". It's an action, regardless of their identity.
