coincidentally i just read this post (http://mslorelei.tumblr.com/post/17146809574/so-when-men-do-femininity-they-feel-ridiculous) earlier today. (pasting below in case the tumblr goes away:
So, when men do femininity they feel ridiculous and when women do masculinity they feel awesome. This is what gender inequality looks like. This is interesting but a gross oversimplification. Plenty of men love doing femininity and find freedom, peace, and pleasure in it — ask any drag queen!
yes yes I was talking about this today. men crossdressing = shameful; women crossdressing = empowering. *~Fuck that~* )
