Different person here

Aggression. Outgoing nature. Physical action. Anger. Lust. Domineering. Genius. Just to name a few. Why are they masculine? Because up until the past 100 years or so, these were traits/emotions that were idealised for males to have, but females were encouraged to be shy, demure, nurturing, and so on. This holds true across most cultures.

And what, pray, is wrong with the most positive of these traits? Can't a female character be smart, sexual, and outgoing? Fuck the past 100 years. I'm looking forward. These traits get things done, and they shouldn't be gender-specific.

And can't said female character combine, say, shyness with strength of character and bravery? Be both nuturing and outgoing? I want active females, not damsels-in-distress. It's a story. The worst sin a fictional character can commit is being dull, which is frequently correlated with being passive.

And people may have believed that these traits were masculine, but that doesn't mean they were right.

So you mean that these traits have traditionally been viewed as masculine in large parts of the world for a set amount of time? This is undoubtedly true. This does not, however, mean that we should go on doing it.

It also doesn't mean that they are innately masculine. If we'd just stop putting labels on traits, moving forward would be a lot easier.
