The general use of being androgynous is a person that blends both male and female gender characteristics into a single presentation, or someone that lacks any specific gender identification. An example of the first might be singers Annie Lenox or David Bowie. An example of the second would be Hirjras (of India) who are often described as "neither man nor woman". The word Androgyny is derived from the Greek words andras (%u03ACνδρας) (meaning man) and gyne (γυν%u03AE) (meaning woman).
