There's been lots of discussion about toxic masculinity and dudes trying to "be more masculine" without really talking about what masculinity means or what men who are truly secure in their masculinity look like. What does security and confidence in your masculinity look like and what can you do? The laundry? Knit? What?

...I don't even have to wonder whether I'm secure in my "masculinity". I'm just a seventy-year old man who tries to treat all other people with dignity and respect. Really, that's all it takes. It's called Humanism.

... I can embrace my femininity. "
I tend to disagree with masculinity/femininity, who gets to decide what is what? Tough fishermen used to knit themselves those thick, white, woolly jumpers on nights at home when not fishing. Fishing the cold North Sea made these men tough, you going to tell them knitting is feminine? Why would you categorise knitting as feminine in the first place?
People, you do what you want, masculinity/femininity is pretty much all nonsense.

Yeah, that's pretty much how I was gonna answer! And when it comes to some traditionally ladies garments that fit me well and make this cis male look snazzy and fab, I'm with Eddie Izzard when asked why he wears women's clothes: They're not women's clothes, they're MY clothes. I bought them.

Well, SOME clothes are 'women's clothes' in that they are tailored to allow for wider hips and the presence of breasts, but if it's just a matter of colours and fabrics, then clothes are unisex.
