The idea of abolishing all gendering of things is a curiously contested one within LGBT+ spaces, as far as I can see.

I can understand how people wishing to be identified a certain way have a vested interest in the existence of markers for that identity.

On the other hand, I wish painting my nails wasn't fem-coded on some level. Of course guys can do so too, but the only "guy" I knew who did so regularly eventually turned out not to be a guy, which doesn't exactly help me ignore that connotation.
