masculine centred feminists and decent ppl

-do not feel easily threatened by others, esp. women & other masculine id'd peeps

- do not compete with other masculine peeps

- do not need to control others by judging and scrutinizing every minute action

- know when to use their voices and do so sparingly and supportively

- have a strong commitment to learning and reflexivity and are open to feedback

- are not rigid

- treat others with sacred respect for physical, mental and emotional well being

- are emotionally available and open

- seek out reciprocal and giving relationships with others

- respect others', esp. women's autonomy and agency and do not unconsensually dominate

- avoid essentializing and minimizing

- believe in building community and accountability

- are committed to working through their own trauma, not out onto others



.... feel free to add more :)
