I feel neither masculine nor feminine. I feel 100% me. I hate shopping, am lousy at housework, am physically stronger than most ladies, and cry at weepy movies, something that happened as soon as my son was born, never before.

I'm gay. Should I be "displaying a feminine side"? No-one knows I'm gay unless I tell them. Does that mean I'm masculine?

I'm a natural bottom. Does that display my feminine side? Would being a top make me masculine? Or is that just what I wish to do sexually?

I know how to mend a car. I can strip an engine down and it runs when I put it back together. Does that make me masculine? in WW2 many excellent mechanics were pretty young ladies. Are they now masculine, or does this mean I am feminine?

Is "our feminine side" something imposed on we queers by society back in the 1950s when we were all exhibits in a freak show, or is it real?
