Is the bigotry in this section a reflection of the level of bigotry in general ?

I don't think having qualities typical of the opposite gender have to mean you are the opposite gender. If I was dating a male who was really pretty, did his make up, wore a skirt and was in touch with his emotions I would introduce him as my boyfriend. It's really sad that people can't accept you as you are without insisting you have to be a different gender. Why should girls be one way and boys be another? I don't see how you can't just be the way you are without someone judging. My boyfriend is really feminine and everyone keeps asking me if he is gay. (Which really irritates me, obviously he is not gay if he's with me.) I think the only thing that you should qualify a as is their lower parts and chromosomes. That's all that should matter. Girls or boys should act and look the way they want to and not be labeled.
