24 Year Old Female
I've written about this before. Today, mention cross dressing and we think man in a dress. Women wearing traditional male attire are now so common, that no one thinks it odd to see a woman in pants. That wasn't always true. There was a time when a woman in trousers, let alone a full suit, would have been considered scandalous. My guess is that this photo was taken in the teens or twenties, a time when this young lady, (And yes, I admit this might be a photo of a somewhat effeminate looking man.) would have had people talking. Who knows, she might even have been arrested.
About the title. Microsoft has a fun new doodad. How-Old.net. Upload a photo and the site will give the age and gender of the subject. This one was ID'd as a 24 year old female. Of course, it's not always accurate. I checked a couple of photos of myself, both taken about five years ago when I was in my mid-fifties. One scanned as 41, the other, just a slightly different angle, 57.
