think that since you are a CDer that you perpetuate gender stereotypes due to the societal definition of "feminine" or are you helping to break the mold and push society in a more gender neutral direction?
Why do you think that pushing society to a more gender neutral direction would be a good thing at all. Sure, overly rigid roles for women (and men) have been a problem. But I don't think that "androgynous" presentations are all that. In my own case, I am very, very certain that if men and women in society wore the exact same garments, hairstyles, etc. I'd have blown my brains out many months before the slow process that is HRT changed my face and body enough to make me not want to die everytime I looked in a mirror.

I present in a stereotypically feminine manner because I'm just that type of woman, and my need to be who I am feels like an irresistible physical need, like the need for air. I'm not saying that every woman needs to be this way - I think people need freedom to be who they really are, without judgement. But I think it's ridiculous to replace one overly rigid social template with another overly rigid social template.

There is nothing wrong with a highly traditionally feminine presentation, provided it's not the cruel one size fits all uniform for every woman.

I'd invite people who disagree with me, and view me as a sell-out, a prostitute, or even as a grotesque parody of womanhood to please PM me, and I'd be more than happy to discuss this. (I've heard all of those comparisons, btw.)
