At, that’s what they call that “Man Box Culture”! I dealt with it by going trans M2F. In my case i at first dealt with it adapting to the male power structures but sticking with my “feminine” values as much as I could. But I was still seen as a Man-Box person to many because I was a man, and I had a strong masculine personality. So now I’m a trans woman, and they like me a whole lot betterz
