    wear women’s clothes, I have women’s hobbies

    What are women’s hobbies actually? My wife really likes ice hockey, is that a women hobby? Men hobby? What I mean by this is, that for the past several decades we fought for that there are no “men things” and no “women things”. No gender norms, do whatever makes you happy. And now I’m like wondering where we took the wrong turn that we’re back to puting things into the little sex/gender boxes.

    I’m sorry, this isn’t targeted at you personally, I’m just thinking out loud about the society in general

      Gendered hobbies is also a social construct I guess. Hobbies are still associated with men or women though. I think people with atypical hobbies are very hot. I’d be happy to let anybody do anything, even though I was denied the same opportunities when I was younger. I say denied but I think it’s more that my sister didn’t want to share.
