The same reaction happens when you talk about dance and gymnastics and call them what they are, sports.

It's almost like any and all fields are valid and noble until they're woman-dominated and/or stereotypically 'feminine'. Then, suddenly, to call it anything but frivolous earns you more backlash than actual misogyny.

I can't imagine initiating anything in a romantic or sexual relationship, because the second my partner doesn't like something or doesn't want to do something, I'd be crying before I even knew what happened, and people say showing any sort of emotional response to rejection means that you're pressuring them, which is coercion/sexual harassment/sexual assault, and emotional responses with RSD are completely beyond your control, so your options are either 1. never initiate anything at all and risk coming off cold, or 2. initiate something and be rejected, then cry uncontrollably, which is coercion, even though you don't want to coerce them.

I feel like something is missing, or I'm supposed to be somewhere else, doing something else.

It's weird. It's like how I feel when I look in the mirror, sometimes. I'm not who I'm supposed to be, I don't look how I know I'm supposed to. My hair is wrong, my body is wrong, my clothes are wrong, my face is wrong. Even other things, like my voice and mannerisms, just aren't quite right.
