My 40+yo coworker who is probably more manly than you (don't feel bad, me too lol she's a beast) loves cute shit and bows, has stuffed animals on her desk, wore pigtails (I think, dual braids anyway) the other week, and meanwhile is better with tools and shit than most guys I know. You tell her bows infantilize her you might find yourself in a fight lol. Maybe we should just let people like what they like and not try and go all Freud on everyone.
