Very nice and sharp, no attitude, though. Can't tell whether the
person is male or female, can't tell whether suspicious or
trusting, passive or active. Would be nice to have a window into

Well.. I think mostly I wasn't certain, and I'm sufficiently out of
the world of what women put on their lips that I wouldn't have
noticed the gloss. And yes, the colors she was wearing did strongly
imply that the model was female, but it's interesting what happens to
the human face when you remove some of the most cliched indicators.
I have a photograph of Teddy Kennedy at the helm of his boat and he
looks absolutely like a woman.
