Of course women of the past hated being women, they weren't treated as equals across many cultures.
It's the same now, TIFs are running away from sexism, internalized misogyny (and homophobia).
Ask them what they like about being seen as guys and you'll likely hear them describe what they hate about performative femininity. What people expected of them, and what they silently fear they are incapable of achieving so they don't even try because they don't want to be humiliated when they fail.
They convinced themselves that they were unique by leaning into the "I'm not like the other girls" cliche, but a lot of them are insecure and bitter that they couldn't be the blonde bimbo stereotype even if they tried their hardest, so they mercilessly mock women who embody that look.
I think there are tomboys and dykes who really do hate feminine clothes, but if you ever see the wedding dress shows, you'll inevitably see a tomboy who tries on a dress that they love, and the family inevitably says "that's so weird. It's not
your style.. I don't think you suit girly dresses."
And their face just drops, because they really felt beautiful/womanly in it.
It's their wedding day, if they cannot be feminine then, then when?
They're scared to
want to be feminine because they'll feel like a like shit if they try on the dream dress and don't feel that they look beautiful in it.
You also see the alternative brides who are convinced they don't want a traditional wedding dress but a lot of them end up falling for a white princess gown, they're shocked that they can look feminine, pretty
and look like themselves in such a dress.
It's a massive cope for some tomboys with a personality type that hates failure and so avoids trying.
They try to do the feminine thing, make up and hair, but they end up looking awkward because they haven't learned how to style themselves/body type, or apply makeup, and they end up just saying "whatever! I'm different. I'm not vapid and vain! I'm one of the guys!"
You cannot fail if you don't try. They convince themselves that they're happy but they'll mock the fuck out of girls who can do makeup, hair and style themselves.
The bitterness seeps through.
The butch lesbians and tomboys who are comfortable with themselves don't feel the need to constantly shit on the bimbos, even if they they think it's ugly or stupid.
