It seems a number of celebrants at the New York 2011 Mustache and Beard Fest had flexible ideas about gender presentation.

Frankly, I find this presentation quite heart-warming. I'm starting to believe that gentle humor regarding gender presentation is perhaps an encouraging social trend. Anything that breaks the rigid binary model is a good thing.

It can be a double-edged sword, but I agree, if put in the right tone it could do well to further strides for tolerance. Of course, my greatest heroes are Samuel Clemens and Sarah Silverman, so take that for what it's worth ;-)

The one on the right appears to be a Frida Kahlo impersonator.

Eyebrows

Yes, the eyebrows are (eyebrow is?*) a nice touch.
