Transman feels unmanly after screaming and crying over bee. Pooners reassure xer that that many men fear bugs (without mentioning the crying part)

OP:

i feel some parts of me r way too feminine to ever pass

for example, i have an intense fear of bugs for some reason. when i was younger i didn't at all but something switched when i became an adult. i'm deep in the closet but today at work i kept my hair natural, didnt wear any makeup, and wore a more masculine outfit and felt really good ab myself. then a bee landed on me and i screamed and literally started crying and freaking out. it was super embarassing but i feel like the girls at work were trying to make me feel okay about it and saying they wouldve reacted the same way and the guys just saw it as typical girly behaviour i feel. but that really made me annoyed with myself because i cant even imagine a cis man doing all that over a bee 😭 its kinda funny but also really stressing me out. i feel like certain aspects of me r just extremely feminine in that sense and idk what to do about it

>even if you do have 'feminine' behaviors, that might just mean that you're a slightly feminine guy, not that you aren't "feminine enough to be a guy" or to pass or anything. Its totally normal.

god darn the mental gymnastics they do
