This is something that's been bugging for a long time. I'm sure you guys know about gender policing, which is people policing the behaviors based on a perceived sense of gender roles or norms. Examples would be phrases like "Skinny jeans are for ****. Real men wear normal pants," or "You like pink? You must be closeted." I'm not a fem guy, but I do have an androgynous state of mind, and I like to emulate that in my appearance. But because of that, I face statements like the ones listed above, as well as weird looks.

It also seems like gender policing is less common in women, which I envy a lot. Women don't go around calling each other ****s for doing something masculine, and they don't tell each other to get back in the kitchen or to be more feminine. To add another point, it seems like there are a good portion of women who like to police male gender behavior, which is hypocritical considering those women have broken out of many gender roles and have benefited from feminism, but want to keep men in their roles.

I know I'm ranting, but this crap is so prevalent in society, especially here in America. Does anyone else experience this a lot?
