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.
