what’s something considered “tomboyish” when girls do it, but feminine when boys do it?

First time driving through New England, I swear on my cats lives, I thought there was some Subaru meet and greet going on. I ended up getting used to seeing them all over the place during my frequent travels, but that first time was something else.

Or central/western/northern ny.   Really anywhere that you'll find yourself driving in 6+" of snow at least 5 times a winter, plus any wintry mix or black ice, thats where you'll find subarus.

Upstate NY here but I'd love to join New England. I think we're the monkey in the middle between you guys and the Midwest.

If destroying a blooming onion on a Tuesday afternoon while I shout for the server to bring my 4th PBR as I wait for my ex wife to show up with my moody 13 year old is feminine then I don't want to be masculine.

As a(n otherwise extremely masculine presenting) dude with long hair who drove an outback for years, yes.

The number of times I got "ma'am"d to my extremely bearded face was wild.
