How would you describe your gender? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

It doesn't just have to be "oh I'm a man/woman/enby." What qualities do you have or want to obtain as your gender? How do you express yourself? What does your gender feel like?

Subversive tradwife.

I basically only wear dresses and go over the top with jewelry while also I doing the cooking, cleaning, shopping and errands in my household while my partner is the bread winner (even if I the one who bakes the sourdough). But we are both vegan, trans, atheist, feminist, tattooed, leftists. So while we do conform to some "traditional" stereotype, we also break just as many in the process. While in my heart of hearts, I am agender non-binary and vigoursly see gender as a human made role, but I find traditional femininity so much FUN that it's the way I love my day to day life.
