-FWIW-
I am not sure I ever felt completely comfortable until I started to develop a 'figure.' The estrogen has been present since the beginning, but society was not ready to admit that sometimes we are just different. As we age, those hormone levels change considerably. infant, pre-puberty, puberty, post puberty, and "chronologically gifted" are all stages that we go through (if we live long enough).
It is liberating to admit to liking the color pink more than the color gray. The comfort of wearing a bra and the courage to welcome it is also liberating. The enjoyment of soft fabrics, skirts, and pleasant aroma are newly admitted joys. My point is that hormones cause as much (if not more) effect on our psychological makeup as they do on our physical makeup. I believe that we often lose sight of that
It's acceptable to like so-called feminine things - toys, clothing, games, activities, hobbies, posture, professions, and worldview - are but a few of the things that are wonderful to experience from different perspectives. What a shame it is that many don't accept that truth - until we have to.
'Acceptance?' Perhaps 'embrace' would be a better term. I wouldn't change a thing - even if I could.
I yield my soapbox.
