Only your… ahem… sugar daddy knows for sure.
Raymond Ibrahim has a fascinating (and hilarious) account of an attempted escape by the emir of the al-Nusra Front in Syria, who disguised himself as a woman wearing a niqab in an attempt to escape to Lebanon.
Mr. Ibrahim’s text is below. But don’t miss the photos of this delightful pseudo-mujahidette, who shaved his fistful of beard and dolled himself up with eye shadow and lipstick to try to be convincing.

Jihad Leader Arrested Disguised as Woman in Syria
By Raymond IbrahimYesterday, many Arabic-language Internet news websites posted the following pictures, purporting to be of the leader (or “emir”) of the al-Qaeda linked al-Nusra [“Victory”] Front, which is in Syria waging jihad. According to these reports, Abu Muhammad al-Jawlani had managed to pass several military checkpoints dressed as a woman, until he was arrested by the Syrian army in al-Jaswiya, al-Qusayr, in his attempt to flee to neighboring Lebanon: “He shaved his beard, worked his eyebrows, and put on mascara and lipstick till he looked exactly like a woman.”…

Bear with me, y’all. It took a while to find the NYT pose that traumatized me back when they voted her in.
Evidently I wasn’t the only one, as this original investiture image has been labeled as “Schori Pants Toon”.

I still say Gaddafi but the imam has better lips.
Looks like he’s pretty damn good at going drag. Must have a lot of experience with that sort of thing.
It’s funny and sad at the same time, that so many men who see themselves as having been born into the wrong gender, whether or not they go to the extreme of having an operation, are so tall/masculine looking as to be unconvincing. I’m not advancing any agenda, just saying.
When you look at that photo you immediately think: “Holy warrior!” eh.
