Esme Creed-Miles Quotes

No one has ever seen me as feminine.

I was always just so feminine. I don't think anyone who ever met me would describe me as a man.

I'm pretty feminine.

I've never played on my gender.

I had always been a tomboy - I still am, at heart.

It's definitely part of it, that the men were having fun and doing the interesting things but also, I don't know, I'm just thinking more about gender and how maybe in some way I am more of a boy than a girl.

I am normally the manly-ish girl on the planet.

I never get to forget who I am, my gender identity.

I'm quite feminine.

I may have had the body and emotions of a woman, but I've always had the head of a man. I've lived my life like a man.

I never feel confined by gender, by labels, by expectations, by stereotypes. I'm free to be myself.

I don't feel like a very feminine woman sometimes. I feel manly. When I was in my twenties I would say I was a masculine girl and now I realise the whole idea of femaleness is a construct. I'm a boyish girl, who talks over people and I do a boyish job.

I am not metrosexual. I am not macho. I am normal. I don't even wear nail paint.

I have a lot of characteristics that would normally be present in a guy and then less that would be present in a woman.

I'm more androgynous, because men are supposed to be more spatial, women more literal - I'm a tomboy.

I don't believe in categorising a gender, as it makes for discord. People always say, 'That's what men are like' or, 'That's what women do'; I don't really feel that at all. I think that's because I have two fathers, three brothers, a husband and two sons. I'm surrounded by maleness, and I couldn't possibly summarise them into a type.

I go feminine, I go masculine. I am both, actually. I think the male side is a bit stronger in me, and I have to tone it down sometimes. I'm not like a normal woman, that's for sure.

I believe that anything can be for men or women. I mean, I've worn a lace dress before!

I'm not 'one of the guys.' I don't want to pretend to be one on stage. I'm not going to dress like a guy or carry myself like one.

I don't think of myself as statically a girl.

I've struggled with gender norms my whole life, always feeling like I wasn't black-and-white; I was in this gray area, and gray areas really scare people because you can't define them.

I wasn't a masculine kid; I was pretty effeminate.

I have always fought against being gender specific. I just don't like being identified as female: I'm a person.

Believe it or not, I am a tomboy.

I'm totally fine with myself. It's the other people I run into out there who are so hung up on gender. The way it trips them up is their problem, not mine.
