How would you put into words what gender means to you apart from societal gender roles and expectations? - eviltoast

I know that it has significant meaning to me but I struggle putting it into words to explain it to other people (especially other dya cis people). So like a few years ago I was thinking about if I may be trans femme. I have since realised that no, actually I was just struggling with it for a while because I don’t relate to the gender roles and expectations society puts on men. I now identify more strongly with being a man than ever before, and I love being a man in a gender-way. I just absolutely hate being a man in a “what role men have in society”-way.

    Or I was implying what the prefix “trans” implies. You can’t be “trans” if there’s no “base”. I wasn’t saying any were “superior”.
