getting intense joy from painting my nails wasnât an expected outcome of my day but it is definitely a welcome one!
#in todays episode of âoh dang cis ppl can also get gender euphoria huhâ#the more this happens the more I am convinced that gender expression is rly a personal thing#bc like. my roommate would NOT like to paint her nails or wear hairbows or skirts. she doesnât enjoy them.#but she considers herself very feminine in her own right by the colors and styles of the shirts she wears and how she does her hair#I didnât used to think I liked looking particularly feminine at all bc I found so much of it uncomfortable#turns out girliepop had sensory issues and the âbeautiful lace dresses and nylon tights and makeupâ wasnât doing it for me#but when given the chance to choose how I look. I find that I actually enjoy some of the stereotypical feminine stuff a lot!#and also enjoy some stereotypically unfeminine things bc they make me *feel* more like a girl even if theyâre not like that for everyone#like my Minecraft socks! and t-shirts from the menâs section at Meijer. and button ups with loud patterns! and my undercut đŠľ#also a lot of it I think is just. I am expressing what I like and enjoy. and part of who I am is a girl. so having the ability to express#myself in my clothing means I feel more like me. which includes feeling like a girl. which is v cool.#like I have other nail polish but I donât like it bc itâs smth my mom picked out for me and itâs not rly my taste.#I have a ton of jewelry but only some of it is smth I would ever actually wear. bc I got it from my great grandma. who had different tastes.#but my Minecraft socks and patterned skirts and graphic tees and hairbows are all things that show what I like!#even if itâs not super matchy or coordinated. I look like me!#and now I have nails in my favorite color and Iâm gonna try and get my hair dyed again in colors I like#I just. have the agency to look like me. and I keep surprising myself by how much I love that.#instead of copying what my family considers to be âgood tasteâ
