i have no real way of saying it but i only ever felt like i was male ironically. this feels weird for a trans girl to say, but like, the most relatable fictional character i felt growing up was Ron Swanson from Parks and Rec. Like, the masculinity was just a dumb act.

"Look at me. I have big muscles and big mustache. I trim this big fucking mustache every morning! I took this job because I hate big government and so I can ensure nothing ever gets done. I hate government and love America and the Constitution and the flag! I don't trust banks so I store my money by burying gold in the fucking woods. The same woods where I have my log cabin where I go hunting in because I love hunting and eating lots of meat! I was a central character in a show that ran for 7 seasons and I only smiled like 3 times. I'm the manliest man on earth and no one else comes close, and as my reward I get to wear a visibly miserable stoic scowl in literally every scene for the rest of my life

at some point writing that i think i forgot that i was pretending to be ron swanson. honestly it's been like 8 years since i've seen that show anyway what the fuck do i remember of it

Honestly wouldn't be surprised if I accidentally laughed at guys trying to be masculine thinking it was just an act making fun of masculinity because who would seriously do that?

That's always how I've felt, even now!. I can't look at the big guy in the oversized F350 child crusher who works construction or whatever as someone who is genuinely happy with themselves. Like, do you actually enjoy playing this dumb contest with Andrew Tate where you try and out compete each other for #1 man status?

There are types of maleness and masculinity that are enjoyable to people, but that one sure ain't it.

[โ€“] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

yeah it's like, do you really enjoy that?. if you do, then that's great but like, oh that just sounds awful to me

I'm pretty sure the F350 childcrusher construction-is-manly guy is a toxic maaculinity thing, and is universally agreed to be awful :) real truck fans drive a Chevy C10 with an LS1 swapped in. A useless chonky F350 is penis enlargement pills by comparison.
