I always say that men only look weird in skirts, dresses and the likes, because those are tailored for female bodies. None of these men look weird or feminine (not that that would be a problem). Men in kilts don't look weird. What looks weird is non fitting clothing.

Also, note to myself: I have to watch bollywood movies; they look like so much fun.

I’m a proud dad today.

In her English test my daughter was told to read an autobiographical text and then infer the author’s gender from hobbies like ”skateboarding”.

She wouldn’t have any of it.

If somebody says to me "Man up", they're basically saying the way I'm acting doesn't conform with the recognised normal behaviour for a man.

As a #HighlySensitivePerson #HSP I often don't conform with expectations as a man.

I also feel hurt by the term #ManUp, and believe many men don't naturally conform, but are molded by society to do so, such that they don't feel out of place.

This is particularly the case for teenagers and also gangs.
