War Journal Entry number 982 - Gender Expression
Femininity and Masculinity are not polar opposites on a single scale; instead they are their own separate scales like the color balance on your television. Almost everyone has both, and whichever one they have more of becomes their dominant gender expression. It’s exactly how your picture becomes red if you have too much of that even if the other bars are in the middle. I’d personally add a third scale for androgynous traits, i.e. personality traits that are not typically considered either masculine nor feminine, but I’ll admit my desire for that is simply that I am uncomfortable with separating EVERYTHING between feminine and masculine.
The point here is that you don’t need to choose. Seriously, you don’t. It’s not one or the other; it’s instead all at once. The balance can constantly slide, not only throughout someone’s life but from situation to situation. Accept it. Things are more fun that way.
