If it brings you joy

The appetite for pure gender expression is far more expansive than we thought. I see it every day among youth who thumb their nose at convention.

My generation was full of huge hang ups and males in particular ended up in secret societies, late night walks around the block and other such methods. All in the name of escaping detection. Women were marginally better off but also suffered pushback whenever they dared to test social boundaries. If their sins were considered less grave it is because aspiring to be more male was at least more admirable than embarrassing oneself by donning a dress.

Youth are free of that stigma and they could care less what you think about how they present or how they identify. Pure expression is perfectly fine and should be celebrated and, if it brings you joy, it is all that matters. 

If perturbed just be prepared to be a nasty piece of work because most people back down in front of confidence. Thank goodness it's very unlikely to happen because so many people are walking around scared to death themselves.
