Masculinity

Dear Dr. Buff,

I am most often, 9 out of 10 people, perceived as a lesbian while I am straight. They say they assume I am a lesbian because of how masculine I act and look though I try my best to be feminine. I can't help it and it does impact my dating life. What is there to do?
 
-Too Masculine for Men

Dear Too Masculine for Men,

The best thing you can do is just be yourself. While it could be frustrating finding men that are attracted to you, it is also a gift given to you. In this sense, you would be able to know who would be worthy enough to date you. Those men who aren't attracted to you are probably just attracted to different types of girls. BUT lose no hope! There ARE men who are attracted to masculine women. Men like women who are comfortable in their own skin!
