AYRT

ah sorry, I should have phrased that much better:

I actually agree with you, but that's not what I was saying. It's the phrasing that really bothers me - OP literally HATES HERSELF for liking something girly because of HAVING to reaffirm masculinity. I'm detecting some really messed up stuff there, I might be projecting because I used to be just like that but I'm seeing the having to be masculine because being feminine is bad and if you ever like anything feminine that's awful and not someone you want to be. Of course OP might just not want to be feminine because that's not who she wants to be and that would be perfectly fine, but it's the "hating herself" and the "having to be masculine" that is setting off my alarm.

Sorry for sounding like a jerk the first time.

Yeah, but you have to understand, not everybody's identity is as easily changeable as that. If something happens to make you question yourself, isn't your first reaction "I'm not supposed to be doing, thinking, or feeling this"? It isn't who you want to be or are comfortable being, and a lot of people's knee-jerk reaction is wanting to reaffirm who they were before...

[(Anonymous)]

That's also true. Well, I can hope that OP doesn't really REALLY hates herself for that and that this is really just the kneejerk reaction and eventually she'll come to terms with the fact that it's okay to like whatever she likes regardless of being "girly", and that doesn't affect in the least who she is.

no...? why on earth would it be? wtf do you even mean by "not supposed to be doing/thinking/feeling this"? you're "supposed" to be doing whatever you decide you want to do.

i literally don't even understand what you're trying to say here.

MTE. As someone who just likes whatever the fuck I want to like, it is baffling to me that people would have such an identity crisis over liking something too "masculine" or too "feminine". o_O

Being interested in a piece of media should not make anyone question their entire identity. Anyone who defines themselves by what they watch/read/buy is either avoiding something about themselves or is just boring as shit.
