...that I've been pondering for a while. I do not include transexuals in this question as I (personally) see that as a different category.
If women have, over time, fought for the right to wear trousers, have short hair, etc. (i.e. dress like 'men') and still managed to stay in 'women' spaces then why aren't the men who want dress like a woman fighting to be accepted in their 'male' spaces?
It's perfectly acceptable for women to be 'tom-boys' among women so why don't they push to be accepted amongst men?
Some of it, I guess, is down to education (in the broadest sense meaning beyond school) but it seems that sex and gender are all too often conflated. I am a female but I am not feminine. Never have been. I'm not comfortable in dresses, etc. and I can choose not to wear them thanks to the fight women before me had. (And I do appreciate that I am fortunate in that sense). Why aren't the males that aren't masculine comfortable in their community - look at that, surely?
I am not trying to be antagonistic and have tried to word my post carefully. I am not talking about individual cases but the 'movement' as a whole. Apologies if I've made any faux pas or am open to misinterpretation.
