I need to find someone who worded this better but. This is your friendly reminder that a woman can be as masculine as she wants. A man can be as feminine as he wants. A nonbinary person can be feminine and masculine and androgynous and whatever they want: everyone can! Your expression and appearance and hobbies etc do not have to conform within a box to be allowed to exist, do not have to match those rigid lines of societys expectation of gender roles in any way at all for you to Be the Gender you Are. You are the gender you feel you are. Your expression can be and is whatever you want, and does not have to match up to expectations.

#rant #gender #by this i mean: a woman can never want to have a baby. a man can love childcare #a woman can be butch and LOVE being a woman. a man can be feminine and love makeup and dresses and LOVE being a man #a nonbinary person can LOVE their beard and their suits and HATE #dresses and STILL BE NONBINARY #changing ones expression of masculinity and femininity to make yourself feel more awesome and happy? YAY #but also. many people have to be a certain amount masc or fem for societal pressures.#how many people wear makeup (a feminine expected activity) out of pressure and not joy #how many people NEVER wear a dress cause it will get them attacked or arrested in some places (even if they LOVE DRESSES)#their choice to wear makeup or to avoid dresses may not be THEIR preferred life. it may be the choice they make to fit in and avoid attack #if a trans person is not being respected at work pre hormones? is misgendered constantly? is disrespected?#then yes. hormones and gtowing a beard might finally get fucked up strangers to shut the fuck up #(also for many people the physical changes are cool and awesome! but its also like #a person should and does not Have to change anything physically or lifestyle wise for YOU to #believe them when they say im X gender. period)#i am a huge believer in people not needing to conform to stupid gender role boxes if they dont ficling want
