I am a woman. When I was very young, I did not feel feminine nor masculine. I did not feel. I have always despised dresses but I think that is because you can feel your legs brushing each other and I hate soft touch. I don't like the standard of femininity. It grosses me out. But I don't feel manly at all. I am much stronger than most women my age. I was a tomboy. (not sports, just climbing trees, getting dirty) I always thought that I looked more like a guy (my face) until I was about 29 and a friend told me I looked like a Barbie. I realized with horror that she was right! (not exactly, thank God, but similar; blonde hair, blue eyes, fine features) The most attractive women I have seen are those that look 'handsome' in some way. I guess I just don't fit the typical 'feminine' model and I don't even want to. I think feminity has gotten out of hand in our society. Just as no one really likes a 'macho man' no one really likes a 'priss' either. At least not in real life. Do they? (this is a tough question)
