There’s certain things that are seen as classically female. Shopping, kids, crafting, gossip etc are all seen as women’s stuff, but we dont all like them. What classically female things do you like?

    I love, love, LOVE chocolate. Cakes, biscuits, anything like that I fucking love and could eat all day. I have to be really careful with them at home because I can go into a feeding frenzy.

    I know I shouldn’t, but I love gossip. It’s delicious. I have to make a conscious effort to stay away from it because I know it’s harmful to others. Plus I hate people gossiping about me!

    I love shabby chic stuff, you walk in my house and you can tell right away it’s a woman’s house! Pinks, floral, animal cushions etc… it’s stereotypically female.

    Overall I’d say I’m pretty girly.

    I work long hours as a welder, most of my work clothes are baggy mens clothes from a thrift store. My hair is typically up in a bun and tucked under a cap. I get misgendered a lot when in my work clothes which is fair, I totally get it.

    But when I’m waiting on cooldown, on a break, or at lunch, I like to read a book, draw in a sketch pad, or write in a notebook. The guys are always on their phones watching Tiktok or playing some game.

    It may be a little thing, but I enjoy reading, writing, and drawing which I consider to be a “typically female thing.”

    To a point I really don’t like gendered “hobbies”.

    I’m really tired of society telling me what it feminine and what it not. “Kids” is femine? I’ve met more men desperate for kids than I have women. I’m the most “dad” mom I know. My husband tells me I even smoke weed like an old dad rolling my Js.

    I don’t wear makeup or nail polish, I’ve never like the color pink or purple, gossip is only fun with my friend who is divorcing her republican husband. Shopping is hell on earth.

    I do like cooking, and gardening, but those things should not be gendered. I like mens sandles because they are more comfortable than women’s for me. I like getting my hands dirty in the dirt. I like being tough and strong.

    Im in a bad mood, I’ll step away from this conversation that obviously isnt meant for me

    Today, nothing feels like it’s meant for me. I want to go camping. I want to drink a sour by a bonfire. Sour beer. There, I think that’s feminine. I hate IPAs but I loved sours. I had to give up drinking because of my husbands issue with it. Which is fine, but damn i could go for a sour and a bonfire.

    To NOT be a mom and housewife and for five fucking seconds. Let me on a quad. :(

    tbh, most of it: gardening, makeup, cooking, baking, manicures, pedicures, rosé, mimosas & brunch, chocolate, cute outfits & fashion, arts & crafts, sewing, knitting, skincare, healthy eating, flowers … honestly I wonder if there is something classically female-coded that I don’t like 🤔

    Probably I don’t love sororities, cheerleading, or dance …
