Good Grid, I don't know any women who successfully or unsuccessfully deny their femininity! Does anybody else? What does this mean? The closest I can come to understanding this is in the case of transsexuals-- in which case, I think Sunny has been saying that she is now (and has been for awhile) expressing her feminity; I imagine, then, that female-to-male transsexuals would be expressing their masculinity. But then expressing one's femininity may not be the same as denying one's masculinity. Andy, do you know any *boring* women who "deny their femininity"? Or Interesting/boring men who do/don't deny their masculinity? Or maybe any interesting or boring transsexuals? And what do you mean by "interesting"? (After all, I know a lot of interesting people on the net, but not all of them I would choose to eat lunch with.)
