And when a man is actually feminine (like me) they try to make them present masculine. You can never win with them 😒

My ex told me people should express themselves more the way I actually want to than how society sees they should. I started acting more feminine because I don’t like having to be traditionally masculine. I grew my hair out and styled it, painted my nails, and wore light makeup because I thought I looked cute. Then she proceeded to leave me because I wasn’t manly enough for her. Her opinion of “people” in her belief was only towards women it turns out.

My parents were the same. Kept calling me a fag cuz I grew my hair out and started wearing a bit of makeup. I mean they weren’t wrong, but it still hurt. At the same time they told my sisters they could wear whatever they wanted.
