Dido Harding
Fallout from the great coronavirus swindle is still landing years later and one of the biggest scandals appears to be in England. The so-called Test and Trace scheme cost an astronomical £37 billion. It was abruptly halted after 21 months’ operation. Naturally, it did not work. We truly are ruled by kleptomaniacs, who invariably get away with it.
The head of the slush fund was businesswoman-turned-politician Baroness Diana "Dido" Harding. She ran a telecommunications company, how successfully it’s hard to tell. Harding stands at just 5’2 (157 cm), but has masculinized traits, like the lower jaw, big forehead, long ring finger and long neck. No doubt thick skin too…
Amelie Mauresmo
This former tennis player is one of the most masculine looking athletes featured in this series. The hands, the biceps, the shoulders, the Adam’s apple, the jawline. Photos from her younger years depict a not too out of the ordinary girl, but as she progressed through her career, the testosterone really went into overdrive. Or was it steroids?
From 2015 to 2017 she was quite busy, coaching Andy Murray and having two children. Not so hard you might say, except in Mauresmo’s case there was the complicating factor of her being an open lesbian. So who was the father? Andy Murray might have some explaining to do down the line… a Hawkeye review perhaps…
Annie Leibovitz
Photography really isn’t a skill that I believe requires much ingenuity. Popular culture disagrees, for who else to take the photos that grace the covers of magazines but photographers who are lauded as compositional maestros. It’s all a bit like the art world, provocativeness is now respected, while on the business side connections go a long way. Leibovitz is the visionary who managed to convince John Lennon to curl up into a foetal position next to Yoko Ono.
Whatever her credentials, Leibovitz is the one who became this apex photographer—earning tens of millions of dollars in the process. This hasn’t stopped her from major financial problems over the years, which bucks the stereotype associated with the next paragraph of her biography.
Leibovitz is one of those much disparaged Jewish lesbians. She didn’t quite help her cause, being in a long-term relationship with archetypal Jewish lesbian Susan Sontag. In an interview with The Independent she said “I'm not a practicing Jew, but I feel very Jewish”… She looks it too.
As far as the masculinity goes, the real standouts are the long neck and long ring finger. How such women still have a strong desire to reproduce really puzzles me, but Leibovitz is one of those types, having three children (two by surrogacy). Photogenic? No. Photogenial? Perhaps…
