When it comes to determining whether a man is really an Adonis or just has good looks, women have come up with a unique way of judging male beauty. It’s the question of whether he would look good in drag. The idea is that if a man can pull off looking beautiful and feminine when dressed as a woman, then he must be genuinely attractive. After all, it takes more than just masculine features to make someone look attractive when wearing clothes designed for the opposite gender. This method of judging male beauty has been around for centuries, with some cultures even having specific ceremonies dedicated to testing out this theory. In Japan, for example, there is the “Oiran Dochu” parade which sees men dressing up as courtesans and parading through town in order to show off their skills at transforming into female forms. Similarly, in China there are festivals where men dress up as female deities and perform traditional dances while wearing elaborate costumes. Of course, this isn’t the only way to judge male beauty – physical attributes such as height and muscle tone also play an important role – but it does offer an interesting insight into how women perceive attractiveness in men. It suggests that they value not only masculine features but also those that can be considered feminine or delicate too; traits which may not necessarily be visible on first glance but which can become apparent when a man puts on different clothes or makeup. So next time you see someone who you think might be handsome enough to pull off looking beautiful in drag, take a second look – because chances are he might actually be an Adonis after all!
