I opened this at some recent point from someone sharing it on fedi, and just read it now. Thanks to whoever shared it - nice essay on gender and roles.

@cassey I read the post and I’ll admit I don’t get it. They spend a lot of time telling us how all sexes can play all roles, if you have the mental flexibility you can change how you perceive the world and the expectations you impose on others, that people need to be decoded and understood easily by others. I agree with all of that. and then they start reinforcing the idea that you need to change your external appearance in order to be treated differently, be it carrying a kid or transitioning
