【elder brother. Gender] Leslie Cheung: I'm not pretending to be a woman

"I'm not pretending to be a woman, I'm expressing my clothes as a man."

In 2000, his elder brother Leslie Cheung showed off with long hair and a short skirt at a concert. At that time, some media described him as "pretending to be a woman" and "sadako", and even deliberately featured him in the light, which made him angry and criticized the Hong Kong media as "dirty".

At that time, most of the people who supported my brother emphasized that my brother's costumes were written by famous foreign teachers, hoping to lead the audience to read my brother's performance from the perspective of aesthetics and fashion. However, this supportive voice tends to "de-gender", and the words do not respond to his brother's gender identity.

On the other hand, my brother's response is quite interesting: "I am not pretending to be a woman, I am a man to express clothes."

The above is excerpted from G Spot’s 2018 article:
