I always thought that song where they say he looks like a woman was kind of funny, given his facial hirsuteness.
Bob Seger?
I think that was the point of the original version Steny: it's an autobiographical take on what it's like to be different (i.e. a long haired rock star on tour)
Here I am - on the road again
There I am - up on the stage
Here I go - playing star again
There I go - turn the page
So you walk into this restaurant strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you, as youre shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesnt bother you, but you just want to explode
Yeah, most times you cant hear em talk, other times you can
All the same old clichs, is it woman? is it man?
And you always seem outnumbered, you dont dare make a stand

Yes, but whose going to mistake Bob Seger for a chick, unless she's one of those prison chicks you see on MSNBC specials.
Now any number of British singers I could see mistaking for a woman, but not Bob Seger.

Bob looked quite a bit different back in the day:

Tho the beard should usually give it away.

He's got more hair on his face than most women have on their crotch these days.
The last time I saw Seger & Silver Bullet live,they were opening for Kiss on the "Destroyer" tour at the Capital Center…..
I saw something really funny years ago. I was driving up Wisconsin Avenue at around 2:30 in the morning, a time of night when the only people on that street are drunk drivers going home to Maryland from the bars of Whore-hey-town. As I approached Tenleytown there was this huge pickup truck barreling down the road ahead of me.
Anyway, we both saw the same thing at the same time – a slender figure at the side of the road, silhouetted in a streetlamp's glow, long hair flowing in the breeze, thumb held out for a ride.
The truck slammed on its brakes so hard smoke came off the tires, and I had to stop too to avoid hitting it. Then he saw the same thing I did – the slender figure was a man, with a full beard, looking just like Bob Seger. The truck jammed on the gas and took off just as dramatically as it had stopped, tires peeling as it left the hitchiker behind.
