Androgyny has two definitions; the first referring to physical attributes of those who are intersex- meaning they have both male and female genitalia. The second has a psychological connotation and is a combination of both masculine and feminine traits; a kind of unified gender that defies social roles and psychological attributes.
When referring to the term “androgynous” in mainstream society, it is the psychological definition that is most often being used, usually pertaining to a person’s style or appearance. Being androgynous has taken on a much trendier meaning for women in the 21st century. It has become hip for women to experiment with the androgynous look. It allows women to incorporate the best of both worlds: the comfort of men’s clothing, along with the style of women’s clothing. Androgynous fashion is everywhere these days, so it is important to have a clear understanding of this current trend.
