@girlonthenet@mastodon.social Sorry, I totally know you weren't, I'm just still (overly?) cautious about not wanting to centre myself in these conversations if that makes sense?
And thank you, that means a lot! "Thoughtful on masculinity" is 100% what I'm aiming for. Another potentially relevant link is this one, about how I was worried that starting testosterone would make me more violent, but soon realised that the idea that testosterone is why men are violent is bollocks: https://www.genderbent.co.uk/testosterone-made-me-less-violent/

@onqueerstreet@mastodon.social OH! I missed this one but YES. This is bang on the money I think "I can’t help thinking that men are more violent not because of testosterone, but because we expect and excuse their – our – violence." Thank you for sharing!
