I think many people have different responses to black velvet dresses than they do to overalls and combat boots. It makes sense to *me*.
Thoughts on the chameleon stuff: you've got a very deeply ingrained sense that the small and weak are to be protected and cared for, and not to be aggressive, harmful or intrusive. A femme is more likely to bring out your sense of gallantry. Moi, on the other hand, if you're not assertive, you might be in danger of getting steamrollered (though with the occaisional reminder that I like it when you're direct and stand up for yourself).
