I connect the word with rugged body, charming smile, in suits, chivalry and stuffs.

I don't want to stereotype but I can't deal with men or women who are emotional and can cry at the drop of the hat. If you are above 18 it's high time you learn to control how you behave.

Masculinity is a social construct.

There is a myth that aggression, assertiveness, physical strength, devil may care attitudes, sexual prowess, high libido, and so on are characteristics of people possessing a penis and labeled 'masculine'.

There is also a myth that coyness, shyness, softness, compassion, nurturing, virginal virtue, and so on are characteristics of people possessing a vagina and labeled 'feminine'.

These are all human qualities. Any human can have any combination of these qualities irrespective of the organs they were born with.

I just looked that word up. So apparently androgyny is a combination of both feminine & masculine traits? I don't understand what you implied by the last line though.

I was talking about new laws allowing men to use (Women's) public restrooms and vice versa...

As far as I know, all they have to do is say they consider themselves woman, they don't even have to give up their equipment or undergo sex change surgery
