I know that it has significant meaning to me but I struggle putting it into words to explain it to other people (especially other dya cis people). So like a few years ago I was thinking about if I may be trans femme. I have since realised that no, actually I was just struggling with it for a while because I don’t relate to the gender roles and expectations society puts on men. I now identify more strongly with being a man than ever before, and I love being a man in a gender-way. I just absolutely hate being a man in a “what role men have in society”-way.

    The older I get and the more I learn, the more I have this opinion as well.

    It really really doesn’t matter how someone presents themselves, in so far as it doesn’t impact their quality of life and the way people treat them.

    Of course, it does impact the way people treat them, so it can’t be ignored, but… if you’re happy, respectful, and kind, it doesn’t matter if you’re man, woman, nonbinary, or any mix of any other gender.

    Just be nice.
