In regards to appearance, is the goal to be less "manlike", or more "womanlike"?

I suppose it could be asked more generally as well; I don't have a clear answer either way, just yet.

Mind if i repeat myself and say "neither"?
(dichotomies baaaaaad)
The goal, it seems to me, should be to chisel away at everything that obstructs the view from "humanlike." And that would probably be best served by subjugating gender to beauty (or realizing that no matter what, beauty is the more power/meaningful concept) not the other way around.

to paraphrase the t-shirt i put on Eden (but first saw on a mixed-race friend in high school):

not man.
not woman.
human.

it seems to me that your goal is to be more allen. it's not an issue of maleness or femaleness. allenness isn't either of those things.

does that make allen the only definition of human? no. for some the dichotomy (or a minor modification thereof) works, and *that's okay, too*.
