Or sometimes people will pretend that they think you're gay if you're not showing any signs of interest in them because their ego has been bruised. Link to post Share on other sites

I used to get read as inhabiting a weird gender category because I did not exhibit the sexually competing behaviors associated with heteronormative masculinity nor the effort of trying to appear sexually attractive associated with heteronormative femininity in a male dominated society. Still figuring how this affects me and my gender identity now that I have some distance from that situation. Anyways, welcome to a place to figure stuff out! Link to post Share on other sites

This caused me to question my own gender for a long time. I finally decided that I am feminine in some way, just not in the same way. Though the qualities you listed are the major ones, there are other masculine/feminine qualities that you could possess. I haven't figured out any masculine qualities I might have, that's been really difficult as I seem to be mostly a mix of feminine and neutral. Link to post Share on other sites

I jokingly say that my gender identity is a femme fatale: I look femme (most happy in skirts and long hair) but have a strong personality and other traits that I refused to call masculine because those gendered divisions are stupid. Real, very real, but also dumb. Link to post Share on other sites
