masculine kc My dictionary says it's "of or relating to men or boys; male," OR "suggestive or characteristic of a man; mannish". What is mannish? "Resembling, imitative of, or suggestive of a man rather than a woman." Culturally, the masculine seems to be defined as "that which is not womanly." The more women are allowed to be androgynous or masculine, the less room men have to be mannish. When women can do everything, what can men do to distinguish themselves from women? Isn't that fucked up? I think masculinity needs to be redefined. The non-womanly thing is not working for men or women at this point. 050327 ... monika anima animus ying yang endless conparisons contrasts every culture has it masculine feminine 050328 ... unhinged because i prefer to wear pants loose fitting clothes so that i can move easily and be comfortable rather than physically restrict myself with a feminine aesthetic way of dressing (and maybe also to hide my body from the predators) argue than demure or submit be in charge during sex (because i bear too many memories of rape and assault) because i like history science philosophy and i still find the fact that many of these things are considered male offensive like all those years ago when i first found ophelia and all the men around her assumed she was too stupid and weak to understand what was happening to her let alone have any agency in her own love affair and then all acted surprised when she threw herself in a lake male-like because i could care less for the company of males and chafe at being contained by them it seems so contradictory i resume my own femaleness by rejecting the whole thing based on the feelings it gives me just because i don't need a man doesn't make me one 250424 ... sameolme Just because I love myself don't mean I don't love you 250429 ... sameolme not particularly Go this way and that way Go this way and that way Go this way and that 250429 ... sameolme way and this way and that 250429 ... unhinged go this way because i said so and that 250505 what's it to you? who go blather from
