  1. The terms 'gender', 'feminine' and 'masculine' have no place outside a book of grammar. Biological entities have a sex, female and male (except for some groups like earthworms or gastropods that are hermaphrodite). To imply that, for example, to be good at mathematics is 'unfeminine' and appropriate only to boys and men, is essentialist and therefore one millimetre from being sexist. The same applies to the stereotyping of boys or men. So, take your pick: the Gender Industry; OR antisexism, acceptance of homosexuality, acceptance of the political and economic gains that women (in the West) have won over the past two hundred years. You can't have both. And the first is designed to erase the other.
