    Queer theory aside. Who wants to be manly?
    Seriously tho, I honestly think that we're all basically gender neutral. We just choose not to see it. Or rather, we see what we want to see.

    I don't think you should let an online test define who you are. Not only are they not always accurate, but they don't know you personally.

    I was born female, but I'm pretty gender neutral. I have a lot of masculine traits as well as feminine traits, and don't feel strongly for either gender.

    Everyone has different ideas of how men and women should be, but only you can decide what you should be.

    ISTP - The Mechanics

    Ideas of masculinity and femininity vary widely between cultures. However, the "western ideal" has really been taking over all around lately. People are people, and as long as they are happy and not harming anyone, why should anyone really care? Societal ideas of things like this are very interesting to me, but the interest quickly turns into disgust when discrimination becomes involved, as it inevitably does.

    In the western viewpoint, I am very feminine in appearance but very unfeminine in my attitudes, etc. I think this can be very jarring to people sometimes, because people are uncomfortable with the unfamiliar.

    As human beings, we thrive on adjectives. They help us put people into categories. The definitions of masculine and feminine are more partial to each person's own perspective. One person could base his definition solely on what equipment's inbetween one's legs. Other people's definition, which I believe is most people's definition, of masculine and feminine are moreso based on gender roles i.e. girls like pink and boys like blue. My personal opinion is that it's all BS. And from a Christian perspective, man and woman were one single creation before they were separated. The original creation of mankind possessed both male and female qualities. I think that's why it's important that we find balance in life. Don't be overly emotional, and don't be overly logical.

    I really dislike the whole "men aren't supposed to have feelings" stuff. I love a man with feelings. I want a sweet innocent man with feelings!

    My dream man is all man- and I want him to be overcome with feelings as I love him into bliss and I want years, many years- old age for the both of us.

    Is that weird?

    Hmm. I scored very high on femininity and very low on masculinity. On these sorts of tests, I usually score closer to the middle....Maybe the test is overestimating everyone's femininity.

    30/100 on masculinity and 94/100 on femininity.

    ...and a whopping 2/100 authoritarianism. Rawr. Take that, mods. >:3

    The test results weren't surprising by any means. :3 I don't know what masculinity and femininity refer to exactly, but everything else was very well rounded, even the things I don't like about myself.

    ENTP - The Visionaries

    Whoa! That is remarkably unexpected.. The test basically called me an ENTP (inventor/ free wheel), which is quite understandable. However my masculinity score is 96 to 2 Femininity! I am a blokie sort of guy, but wouldn't have thought by that much!
