In a society where the line that divides the roles of men from the roles of women is erroding away, perhaps there is nowhere that erosion is happening faster than in the world of Figure Skating. For years, these girly men non-traditional males have endured snickering and sneers for their outlandish outfits and their rather feminine sport. At the Turino games, Bulgarian couple Denkova and Staviyski have taken additional steps toward gender neutrality. Both skaters, you see, have the same haircut!

Which one is the girl, which one is the guy?
Question: Look at this image quickly. Which one is the guy and which one is the girl?

In all fairness, the woman still is wearing a skirt, and the man is still wearing pants.
(At least I think so – I have a hard time telling them apart.)
