Cute - but not the least bit helpful, particularly when you are putting out things into the world that seem to support the status quo without giving any sort of direction or idea how to pull off the absurd notion of strict gender boxes that aren't harmful.

How about instead letting men be whatever authentic expression of masculinity that works for them (including some things that "look" like femininity to a patriarchal eye) and letting women be whatever expression of femininity that works for them under the same metrics, all the while allowing non-binary folks, and trans folks, and androgynous folks, and whatever else you got to just be who they are exactly as they are and want to be without any outside censure or demand from the culture or other people?

Isn't that a lot easier and more sensible solution? If not, please explain to me why not.
