Masculine female
I was raised primarily by my dad. Grew up very Tom boy. I know my way around a car, power tools, etc. As I got older, I wanted to be more feminine. Started wearing make up, dressing up, and having a more feminine look. Met my husband some years back and he really liked the fact that I was independent, not only financially but that I have handled repairs and maintenance on my own. While I’m fine with being able to do these things, I feel like the more I do them, the more masculine I feel again. My husband is a jack of all trades. Id prefer he handle all that stuff and leave me out of it. But, he has a habit of always bringing me into it. Wanted me to learn to weld, replace a faucet in our bathroom, caulking around the house, using a circular saw, power drill to fix the fencing, the list goes on. Just because I know how to do a lot of things doesn’t mean that I want to. I’m tired of being pulled into a man’s world. I just want to maintain my femininity, keep my nails nice & clean. Wear my makeup without getting grease or dirt all over my face. I know none of this is what separates a man from a woman but I feel like I’m losing myself sometimes. Maybe it turns him on? Idk I’d much rather be in the kitchen baking cookies and shit than use power tools. I used to feel empowered that I can do stuff without a man but in a way, I feel like my husband is taking advantage of it and I only did things because it was just me, I didn’t have anyone else to help me when I needed things done much less did I want to burden someone else.
Sorry for the long post, just needed to vent I guess.
