CIRCLE WITH A DOT

A friend of ours walked into the room after just having masterminded a truly fantastic barbecue and openly admitted in a discussion that followed: "I think I'm actually very feminine coded". He's a doctor, rides motorcycles and barbecues like a god, but wants to stay at home instead and raise kids. And he has no shame in the admission of that femininity. And maybe that's the moment I needed, to learn to embrace both, to be the good girl and the weightlifter at the same time, to just be me.
