This article explores the recent celebration of tomboy chic as the latest attempt to discursively intervene on female masculinity. First, the article contextualizes tomboy identity within theories of female masculinity and butch identity. Next, it maps out the proliferation of tomboy recuperation narratives throughout popular culture, from fashion magazines and daytime television to online advice sites. Framing tomboy identity as delayed maturation in need of an intervention, this re-fashioning of tomboy identity as style-over-substance jeopardizes an important outlet for gender rebellion.
本文探讨了近期对“酷帅假小子风”的推崇，这是在话语层面干预女性阳刚气质的最新尝试。首先，本文将假小子身份置于女性阳刚气质和女同性恋身份理论的背景中。其次，梳理了假小子形象在大众文化中的广泛传播，从时尚杂志、日间电视节目到在线咨询网站。将假小子身份界定为需要干预的延迟成熟，这种把假小子身份重塑为注重形式而非实质的做法，危及了性别反抗的一个重要渠道。
