Nice to see someone speaking out against gender pigeonholing without the need for navelgazing woke relabelling: www.distractify.com/p/why-does-harry-style-paint-his-nails?utm_source=dfy&utm_medium=fb&fbclid=IwAR3kxLXpQ0xNCYGQOJeJzSur5org15OKfeBW07o48iN31TtyT28eJRz-hOw

Harry's great, and I love the way he refuses to discuss his sexuality - it really is none of anyone else's business.

And what's more, he's got good taste, and I think he usually looks wonderful.

The thing is, no one is saying a man wearing a skirt/nail polish/make up/dresses is a trans woman, the same as women wearing trousers and not being trans. That’s not what makes you trans or enby, people should be able to wear what the fuck they want. And yeah, sexuality should be nobody‘s business. I remember my stepdad asking me if I was gay and I couldn’t believe it, the audacity of some people is insane.
But my main point is, it’s not about dressing up, it’s about dysphoria and it’s about the self. Clothes are just bits of material to cover us and keep us warm, be it a potato sack or a YSL dress, none of it should be gendered

That's the thing ACat, though, it has no completely agreed definition.
I mean, obviously, we're in agreement that the way you choose to present yourself to the world is not your sex, which is what feminists have been saying for a long time.

An indefinable inner sense of identity is clearly important to some people, and those who experience a sense of detachment and distress about their bodies obviously feel that certain things help them feel better.

But some people are saying a man wearing things gendered 'feminine' in our culture is evidence of Transness, and even though the distinction is made between gender identity and gender presentation, the presentation is obvious significant to many people, and none of it has any bearing on understanding a nebulous and somehow separate gender identity that we are told has nothing to do with gender expression...

Hmm, I don't get GC from him..massively GNC and couldn't give a fuck though! Which is a big plus for me tbh..once more people are just..doing/wearing whatever they want to without being judged, maybe...maybe this trans thing will disappear. Not being transsexual/sex dysphoria of course, but this whole 'I like to wear dresses on a friday so that day I am a woman' nonsense.

Frankly, I think a renaissance in 'Mind your own fucking business' is well overdue.

I very much agree with this.
