EMT I Am Not Most Women Shirt, hoodie

“I was OK until I was 14 or 15,” she said, but then she started having some trouble. She was sent to mental health professionals who at various times diagnosed her with depression, bipolar disorder and ADD, among other things, for which she was prescribed Zoloft, Klonopin and other drugs. She now questions those mental health assessments and is no longer taking any psychiatric medications.
“One thing I was treated for that I think is nonsense,” she said, “is I was diagnosed with OCD when I was 15. The reason for that was that I was spending too much time on grooming, they decided. Meaning like hairstyling and things. That, to me, is gender enforced through psychotherapy. I strongly disagree with that, because if I had been a girl, I don’t think anyone would have been concerned that I was spending half an hour a day on cosmetics … Gender is very aggressively enforced on teenagers.”
After Berklee, she became a philosophy major at Georgetown, where she started exploring her attraction to women’s clothes in a more public way. “I would cross-dress in bars. It was fun, although a lot of alcohol was involved,” she said, smiling wryly. “I would paint my nails and do makeup and stuff. By the time I was in grad school” – at Northwestern, where she pursued a PhD in philosophy – “I was 25. I wasn’t passing as a woman or anything. People still recognized that I was a man.”

Wynn recalled a woman in her department who was a “terf”. “She told me that I needed to get psychiatric help because of the makeup and nail polish. I think she was very hostile to any feminine ornamentation, period, and viewed that as the dressings of male oppression forced upon women.”
Wynn’s ability to see the other person’s side of things often extends to those who have hurt her as well. “I always sympathize with these people,” she said. The woman at Northwestern “is not a happy person”, she said. “I feel bad for her … I think there’s a lack of understanding about male femininity and what that means in our culture and how it’s treated. Men wearing makeup is not appropriating female culture. There’s no such thing as female culture. Gender is within a culture, and gender mandates categories of existence, I guess, and it forces you into one based on the sex assigned to you at birth.”
