As for the male? Ulrici states in his psychology: “the masculine woman is possible only where the effeminate man is already a reality.”4 That is true also in our days. Visit our fraternities, wander around in our salons, take a stroll along our main streets. If you can, take along a Durgerdam fisherman to have a lively image of the male form in its untrimmed dimensions.5 Then tell me whether many an alleged masculine entity you see sauntering along does not testify to a softening, an emasculation, a feminization in our men. Or when you see one of our modern pedestrian amazons with a spirited look and a relaxed bearing walking briskly down the street in sturdy laced-up boots, her arm joined to a diminutive male figure shuffling along on lacquered bottines, more than half eclipsed by the dashing garments of his escort—tell me, does the suspicion ever cross your mind that a woman in men’s clothing has been taken by the arm by a man in the guise of a woman?
