time to put your thinking caps on...

what are some examples of how something can be considered masculine in one culture, but is feminine in another? I'm doing an informative speech on a documentary i saw today and i need some examples of this.

example - in scotland, its considered masculine for men to wear kilts, but in america and other places its considered feminine.

anyone else have examples? thanks in advance...

A) Girls wear kilts? I think they wear skirts

B) Fashion varies, from decade to decade

Some examples:

Long Hair in the 80's (masc.)

Tight Pants, 70's, 80's (Masc.)

Make up 80's (masc.)

Add history to your documentary, and good luck young sailor.

It's a shame that you're not using spaces cos what you're trying to say makes sense. Is your space bar broken?

Hold on.

OK, it's on now. Anyway, um, the word for "female genitals" is masculine in French.
