This might be a weird one. I have loved fics about Sherock turning out to be trans or genderqueer and exploring their gender, such as the Composition of Makeup on A03 (very good gender fluid Sherlock fic, unfortunately unfinished).
Last night I had a similar dream but aboht John, working through toxic masculinity or internalised homophobia and trying makeup for the first time. Anyone got anything like that?
Hi Lovely!!
First the fic you suggested:
The Composition of Makeup by InkedViolin (E, 46,433+ w., 10/? w. || WiP || S4 Was In Sherlock's Head, Trans / Non-Binary Sherlock, Genderfluid Sherlock, Recreational Drug Use, Dead Mary, Implied/Referenced Suicide, Makeup, Gender Issues, Gender Neutral Pronouns, Genderqueer Sherlock, Internalized Homophobia, Background Mystrade, Implied / Referenced Torture, Self-Confidence Issues, Mental Health Issues, Sherlock's PTSD, Body Dysphoria, Transphobia, Gay Sherlock, Virgin Sherlock) – What makes a man a man? A woman a woman? What do you do when you suddenly don't know yourself?

Secondly, ah, this is a good question... I've only ever been suggested gender issues with Sherlock, though I do have lists with John tackling internalized homophobia. Here are some lists related to the topics:
John’s Internalized Homophobia
Internalized Homophobia Pt 2
Trans / Genderfluid / Genderqueer / Enby Characters (MFLs)
And doing some quick tag searches on my offline lists, nothing related to John seems to be coming to my attention.
Here's where I see if the community has some fics that you may enjoy! Anyone able to help us out?
