Kinda how I see things, tho not entirely.

Male and female isn't defined by genitals, it's defined by gametes. Males produce sperm, females produce eggs.

Man and Woman are social constructs and choices, with a founding in our root biology and nurture.

Masculine and feminine are juxtaposed natures and attitudes governed by social constraint, biological impetus and personal selection.

Machismo and Marianismo are duel ideals and precepts society applies to one of the above.

All of which is a digital binary myth we built to make society and people a little easier, easy labels we use to get by.

Reality is we don't live with such a fast binary, there is a vast and colourful blur between either parallel and more and more as we look to ourselves and spend time looking to the substance of who we are, people are finding out they simple aren't column A or B or C.

This doesn't even begin to start on who you might fancy...

Least to say you can be a male by birth, a woman by chose and be rootin n tootin as fuck about knitting, or you might be a man with a willy who likes monster trucks and not swearing are dainty folk... either is ok.

Look to know yourselves and don't push others to a identity you or society projects, give lease and understanding for those lost and found.
