I present pretty masculine, but if doing something or presenting in a way that I'd enjoy would mean breaking out of that box, I'll do so with total indifference.
I take pains to distance myself from the behaviors and thought patterns of your stereotypical toxic cis men, but on the whole I'm comfortable calling myself a man, living a man's life, and being perceived as a man. But equally, I refuse to do, say, or believe things that I don't enjoy or otherwise hold truck with just because they're expected of me as a man.
