Masculine...?

Recently my roommate told me one of our mutual friends said something along the lines of if I "got a sex-change, I would be okay with that" - (which is amazing) - "I think she would fit in better with guys".  This sparked some introspection.

Lately I've been exploring my masculine side these past few weeks.  Since I've been surrounded by my male friends I've noticed that I really haven't expressed my feminine side.  Not much of a desire to.  What I believe most unsettles me however is when I pressed the friend who had made the above comment (though not in malice) with "Wait, do you think I'm super masculine for a girl?"  Alone it hadn't bothered me as much.  When coupled with some of the other comments he had made though (mostly about a list of reasons I'm am and going to be alone) it made think about my behaviors.  Truly I should keep in mind he is always much more an ass when he's been on Creatine (yay for the short break we all had). 
     Despite everything I am attracted to rather masculine and powerful men.  Hence being told that I am so masculine made me wonder if part of the reason I am so alone (besides actually choosing to) is that I might intimidate other guys because I emasculate them?  My most beloved companion told me something that made me feel better though:  "Those are just reasons that that person wouldn't date you.  Forget them, you're awesome" and some other lovely things that helped me change back my perspective, make it more positive.  It sits in my mind a little still but not as much.
    I'm glad to be the person I am.  Even if I have my failings in faith in my person.
