All of my life I have hardly been interested in hobbies and activities that are considered feminine. I do my makeup (not on a regular basis, especially during the pandemic and I only do it for dates/work/school), I like to dress nicely when I have somewhere to be, and I’m not the gregarious and obnoxious type; I’m quite shy. However, a lot of my other characteristics aren’t too feminine, like my sense of humor, how I speak and hold myself, and how I act overall. I’m not cheeky and I don’t have a beaming smile a whole lot. I’m a bit socially awkward and I have never really been into hair, makeup, manicures, doing “girls night out” activities, etc. I’m very nerdy when it comes to politics, foreign affairs, dark humor, certain Reddit subs, and theoretical things (as a lack of better wording). I’m very independent physically, mentally, and emotionally and I know I can be hard to understand. I take a while to open up and the idea of “submitting” to someone almost disgusts me a little. Seeing a man in a hero type of way is okay to me and I think that’s a great way to view a man of course, but I could never blindly submit to anyone or anything. I want a partner as a compliment to my life and someone to support me with my goals. I know there’s a natural biological hierarchy but I just can’t wrap my mind around it so I’m asking you TRP ladies if you have any input or advice. What are your thoughts?
