A couple of weeks ago I had an interesting chat with a girl. She pointed out to me that most of my content here on Pink Femme is about being feminine: makeup, clothes, heels, etiquette, etc. Yet, if we take a look around us, at all the cis-women we see, that being super-feminine is not such a common sight.
Surely Pink Femme should be more balanced and “representative” of all the other ways to be a girl, other than just being feminine and girly.
I agree that being feminine isn’t the only way to be a girl. At the same time I like things feminine, it is my favorite part about being a girl. That is why so much content is about feminine things. I am writing about things that I enjoy from my perspective. Hugs.

There are definitely times when I wonder what life would have been like for me if I had been a girl. There are also times where I would wish or fantasize of becoming a girl. Most of that is all dreaming though, even if the dreams seem sweet. Be that as it may, I’m a male and am content with that. Also, my circumstances aren’t conducive for me to make some drastic gender transformation. It’s not the cards that I’ve been dealt.
I like things feminine, though. I love the clothing. I love the attitude, the disposition, the soft feeling, the lifestyle of girliness. I adore the more playful spirit of femininity over the stoic starchiness of expected manliness. I might be every bit “boy”, but my preferred tastes run “girl”.
So, although I am content with being a boy, I’m also learning to be content with being girly and liking things feminine–around me, on me, and about me. I’m happy to say, even if I don’t have the balls to shout it, I’m just a boy with girly tastes.
Have a great day! Find some way to serve others.
