Dressing up as a character of the opposite gender.

In my group John and Ivan have dressed up as the opposite gender. They are very nice and funny to dress up as woman and played very excellent. They do not make me to think about gender roles because they make up as women are just for imitate the roles in the movie. I just feel funny about their dresses and their tried to imitate women' voice. And some Chinese theaters like Beijing opera，Guangdong opera, Huangmeixi and so on that need the men to play like women. Some players are played extreme graceful and beautiful than real women. This is a kind of art, do not make audience feel they are gay. People always hard to learn themselves, so men may be more learn women than themselves. Therefore, man play women in theater will be better to personation than women play women. However, if I saw a man dress up as a woman in real life may have different feeling. I will think he is a gay or the men is strange and eccentric.
