Her one-year-old partner finds it hard to understand that she is not a woman. How is she supposed to handle this?

She has never been especially feminine. Growing up, her Asian mother would constantly shout at her to behave more "lady-like," even going so far as to say that she drives like a male. She has always favored to be seen as more manly, worn binders, had her hair chopped, and dressed like a man. She discovers that her appearance turns off the majority of unruly men, defies her mother, and generally makes her happy. In her natural state, she feels like herself.

Her hair was grown out to her shoulder blades when she first met her lover three years ago, and after she reached a base length she was comfortable with, she had ideas for a crazy mohawk. When her lover and she first met, they went on to date, and throughout that time they became close companions. It turned out that she had chopped off all of her hair once more just before they started dating.

Her boyfriend's past relationships have all involved incredibly feminine ladies who consistently wore long hair, full faces of makeup, and elegant clothing. He claims it doesn't bother him that she dresses like a man. He is aware that she will never own a genuine bra and that she wears boxers. In addition, he declares that he is in love with her and wouldn't alter a thing.

The short hair just gets to him. Not just him finds it annoying that she cuts her hair short. When it grows out, she has a full head of thick Shirly Temple curls. It's heavy, hot, intimidating, and requires a lot of attention. Her concession is to plant everything.

the way out before trimming the sides. Her boyfriend detests the notion, even though she believes getting that haircut would be a lot of fun.

She discovered that he really has no taste for ladies with short hair. He finds it strange when women present as masculine, and he detests it. She believes that although he likes her for who she is, he will never embrace her for who she truly is. When someone admires someone's insides but not their outsides, what does that person do?
