OP, your continuous posts about men not being allowed to wear makeup and be feminine make me think you secretly desire to become a ladyboy. I say give it a try if that rocks your boat. You will kill two birds with one stone: you will be able to express your femininity and you won't have to worry about women and the lack of attention they pay to men according to you.

it isnt about a secret desire to be a "ladyboy". Its about being (physically) a boy but (mentally) a girl and making the decision on which you want to be as a whole. Some like me can be a mixture of both and go through life being completely content while others require years of psychiatric assistance to help them cope which sometimes can result in a sex change. Its no laughing matter.

Im not an alpha by any means but im also not a submissive either. I can plunge a toilet, change a tire, and clean out gutters, but i can also paint your nails, match clothes, and help you pick out the right pair of shoes. Oh and btw my wife loves this about me.
That's fantasy crap.

Not even animal kingdom crap.

I mean ask yourself, who made these things 'feminine' to begin with? Human society did, there's nothing innately feminine about that. In some cultures it is actually men who wear makeup, and in the animal world it's usually males who are the more eye-catching, colourful, 'pretty' gender (think peacocks.etc).

I think there are too many men who buy into the idea that fashion and appearances and looking beautiful is a female domain. This restricted 1950s view of the world will change one day, everything changes. I guess I feel women here at least seem very conservative in terms of their idea of male beauty. Basically men should be 'men' with the very narrow man-made definition.
Why are so many women here against men being 'feminine'?

Well, doesn't it seem that romantic and sexual attraction goes beyond the purely physical differences? Is that thought enough to provide at least one answer to your question?

How are you so sure that gender differences are created by society? Might they be rooted in, well, gender? That's not to rule out that they may have been exaggerated by society at times or that people were expected to too rigidly adhere to typical behavior at times. Are you sure there aren't differences between gender that are natural and that some vocal but confused people in society don't acknowledge? Might those vocal people's influence cause more harm than good at times?

Women probably want enough normal men around so that every woman can have one. The more men that cross some possible line into an extent of feminine-typical behavior that renders them unattractive to the average woman, the less supply there is. I really don't know how accurate I am here, but it sounds plausible to me.

Edit:

This takes it a bit further and is a bit more out there, but one thought I've had that may make lesbians out of some women, assuming female sexual orientation is fairly fluid like some studies suggest, is when they begin to "see through" men and when masculinity, in their personal experience, is tapped out as an attraction, therefore causing them to turn to femininity in terms of attraction. I mean, think of examples of where you know a woman is not attracted to a guy, the guy just doesn't "have it", and she sees right through him with no attraction at all. Take that to an extreme and apply it to very masculine men most women would find very attractive, and you've got what I'm talking about in my theory.
