to be a masculine woman is to walk the tightrope of “not woman enough” and also “not man enough” at the same time. obviously we’re questioned on whether we’re Actually Women but we’re also constantly expected to participate in mens’ dick-measuring contests and prove how macho we are. (as if when we fail on that count, femininity would be waiting to swallow us back up somehow?) lol. all segments of the population stand ready to kick us out for not measuring up to their standards
