Ya, I am a man that doesn't mind being seen as feminine sometimes. I've never thought of myself as a woman or wished I was a woman, but I have wished people cared less about gender and presentation.
That's been exactly my concern, too. It's why I never considered my own gender past my birth sex. That being said, I've wished throughout my life that I could switch from man to woman and back, but never thought of it as more than fantasy until I had a life-changing experience a few days ago.
I still wish people didn't care so much about it, which is why I like using a numerical scale; it removes the social construct of labels and their myriad implications/connotations, and allows us to just use simple, universally-understood numbers.
