Leave femininity aside, but don’t ruin it. Think of it like a castoff piece of clothes, fold it gently and leave it out where some young thing who wants it can pick it up. Imagine, just for a minute, a young thing raised the reverse of you but longing all his young life for what you hated. Imagine him picking up the feminine you sloughed off and taking home with great glee and breathless anticipation, putting it on in the mirror when no one’s home, smoothing it over himself, smiling shyly at himself, thinking about being asked to dance.
