Outside of When Harry Met Sally, this movie ranks as one that could easily represent the epitomy of the modern romantic comedy.
A good script, with each of the central actors approaching their roles with quality efforts, despite the lightness of the subject matter. This movie has the heart, laughs, chemistry & even a touch of satiric social commetary that matches the rest of the film's themes in the same way that a nice pair of high heels would match an elegant dress-gown.
Tootsie's end-result is that it satisfies in the manner which was always meant to be of the rom-com when the genre was first conceived.

one of the best and funniest Dustin movies. I think a prefer Dorothy to Michael Dorsey XDDD Her [him] voice is really really funny! She is crazy, intelligent, has a good career,...well, a real woman! XD My fav dialogue: Michael: You should have seen the look on her face when she thought I was a lesbian. George: "Lesbian"? You just said gay. Michael: No, no, no - SANDY thinks I'm gay, JULIE thinks I'm a lesbian. George: I thought Dorothy was supposed to be straight? Michael: Dorothy IS straight. Tonight Les, the sweetest, nicest man in the world asked me to marry him. George: A guy named Les wants YOU to marry him? Michael: No, no, no - he wants to marry Dorothy. George: Does he know she's a lesbian? Michael: Dorothy's NOT a lesbian. ...Read more

A classic comedy, it pioneered a new style in mainstream cinema: lots of subplots, pop allusions, dramatic complications, subversive implications, a happy ending, and marvelous performances by Dustin Hoffman, Jessica Lange, and my favorite, Teri Garr, who isn’t as popular as she could be.

I never get tired of watching this film.
