Soft Soft Softyboys/I’m Not Soft, I’m Warm
Everybody who’s a trans guy who is like
“I’m not about that toxic masculine”
Is like
“I’m a soft boiiii”
What about masculinity
For people
Who aren’t soft, aren’t cute, aren’t interested in
Being perceived as weak, but also aren’t
Worried about it– not concerned with such
Low-brow worries.
I’m not a soft,
Or a boy–
I’m a trans man.
Being at peace with my feminine qualities doesn’t make me
Soft, it makes me warm–
Some even find it kind of hot
In the right circumstance, you know–
Like the ones where I’m respected
For who I am, instead of stereotyped
Into some soft, feminine otherness.
