Genderless fashion in Japan

  • ... that genderless fashion in Japan is a way for the Japanese to rebel against gender norms? Source: Tokyo Fashion via I-D: "Genderless boys are not trying to pass as women -- rather, they are rejecting traditional gender rules to create a new genderless standard of beauty." (link)
    • ALT1:... that genderless fashion in Japan was inspired by K-pop groups, visual kei, and '80s–'90s American fashion? Source: CNN: "...the inspiration for genderless style encompasses three modes of fashion: androgynous Korean pop groups; "visual kei," a 1980s glam-rock genre featuring flamboyantly outfitted male performers; and the fashion of 1980s and 1990s America..."

  • Interesting article! I saw some of this when I visited Harajuku two years ago. The article is new and long enough, well-sourced and neutrally written; no copyvio detected by Earwig's tool. QPQ is done, article image is appropriately licensed. I prefer ALT1, though both hooks are cited and interesting, and I will leave the final selection up to the promoter. (Also made some slight tweaks to "80s-90s" per MOS:DECADE and MOS:DATERANGE.) Anyway, this looks good to go. DanCherek (talk) 03:11, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
