So about me... I'm biologically male, but identify as agender, which basically means no gender. So my goal, is to look as androgynous or as gender-neutral as possible. If I were born a girl, I'd be masculine for a girl. But since I was born a guy, I'm feminine for a guy.

Physically... I shave off ALL of my body hair. Just all of it. It's not even that tedious to me, honestly. I just put on some music, and do it with patience, and takes me around 25-30 minutes a day.

I have a little bit of facial hair, but I shave it off too. My hair is very long for a guy. It goes to about the middle of my back. And I dye it platinum blonde, but my natural color is medium brown.

I like to keep my hands and skin in general super soft, and apply a lot of lotion and oil and massage daily.

I don't really wear makeup because I like my natural look, but I do use a little to hide blemishes or acne or whatever.

Emotionally... I talk about emotions with people, and I'm not afraid to say I cry at least once a week. I also love cute things, and emotional, sad, sappy movies and TV shows.

I'm pretty happy with who I am, and I have a girlfriend who loves me just as I am. She actually used to like pretty masculine guys, but she fell in love with me, and grew to love my physique.

Oh... and I'm bisexual too, if it's relevant at all. I like men and women exactly 50/50. But if I HAD to pick, I'd still choose women.

However... my dad is completely against me being so feminine, and so are a lot of my older family members.

In many homes women are the the head of the home and she runs things from her husband to her children.
When the father tries to do masculine activity the mother would object... yet she and her daughter do girly things together with each other.. but the boys can't and are not allowed. Mother and daughter can do each other's hair.. but father can't take his son to watch a football game.
When women hear about this topic they get highly offended.
The most ironic thing is that the girl child can be as feminine as she wants... But the boy child is forced to feminized and can't act masculine.

Recently, I've been thinking a lot of the many harmful stereotypes towards people of the LGBT spectrum, especially when it comes to women. Not only lesbians but also bisexuals, pansexuals, asexual etc. because of their physical appearance, fashion choices and gender identity. Firstly, many queer femme or "feminine-presenting" girls & women are always assumed as "straight, that they only look good to attract men or at least masculine-presenting people, even though femmes can be attracted to other femmes. Never the fact that they feel that they have to come out every day, and when they do, nobody takes them seriously, not by their family & friends, not by straight men who always try to hit on them, not even by other people of the LGBT spectrum.

This short comic is a perfect example of the importance of femme visibility femme invisibility:

On the other hand, Butch or "masculine-presenting" queer girls & women also have a problem but different, including the expectations both Lgbt and non-Lgbt people, have (being strong, no emotions, people threatened by them, accused as being either a "man" or "trans" and people telling that they're ugly because they don't fit the stereotypically feminine norm, despite the fact that there's more than one type of femininity and being butch doesn't always mean "masculine". Even women who aren't LGBT and aren't gender-conforming are always assumed, perceived or accused to be lesbians despite the evidence or proof that their not.

Not many image or comic examples but here is one:

To be honest, I'm sick and tired of humans judging certain groups or others by their looks just because of how the media, fiction, books and other forms stereotype them. Humans are supposed to be an "intelligent" species, so when will they learn?

Finally, I would love to see your answers whether or not femmes or butch have it harder.

Note: I might do one for men too.
