The Top 25 Men Who Look Like Old Lesbians

By:

Take a man. Add eye work (unisex glasses if eye wear is needed)and Botox. Mix in a bad haircut or unfashionably long hair--if possible a dye job. A little doughy-ness doesn't hurt, either. Have a weakness for turtlenecks and by all means fight aging like it's a battle you can win if you try just a little harder, and there you have it: The winning formula to become a man who looks like an old lesbian.

We asked Keith Mays, author of the blog that started a phenomenon and pioneer in the field of men who look like old lesbians, to run down the 25 best examples of this confounding phenomenon and he happily obliged, including a handful of newly discovered men who look like old lesbians.

... In other cases, it is, I admit, a little unfair ... the result of an unfortunate hairstyle or fashion of a certain era ...

... other times, it may be that it's a conscious effort by the person to look androgynous or just plain weird ...

... or it could even be a role the person is playing that I'm unaware of ...

... then there's Bruce Jenner. In photo after photo, pose after pose

Bruce Jenner. A man who truly looks like an old lesbian.
