‘Physical labor. I learned the other day that my sister has never mowed a lawn in her life. The chore always went to me. There’s a cultural expectation that if the lawn needs mowing, or the sink leaks, or the brake pads need replacing, or the firewood needs chopping, then the guy should do it.’

‘I think for me it would be having my genitalia outside of my body. Also, the expectation of having to pay for dates, when it could amount to nothing – it should not be transactional, but I’m sure there are plenty of women out there taking advantage. Being a provider must carry a lot of pressure. I make sure to tell my boy that it’s okay to talk about feelings, it’s okay to cry. The suppression of emotions can be damaging.’

‘As a man who lived as a woman for MANY years (I’m trans) my answer is other men‘s pressure to fit in. It’s like if you’re not the typical man who likes sport and drinking beer you’re put aside or categorised as not manly enough especially if you dare express any emotions or depth.’

‘All of the cultural issues have gender parallels so it’s hard for me to think they would be the worst thing. Men feel they have to be a provider. Women feel they have to be a caregiver.
We’re all here in the social hell we have constructed.’
