Feminism and feminine are different, as being feminine and gender roles are different.
Gender role is simply, how we have a tendency to be socialized to conform to certain roles according to social and familial expectations. They are not good or bad, unless the role does not somehow match your genuine desires for certain type of service. So then, if some gender role does not fit with 'who you are' but we continue to play such roles, there will be tendency towards unhealthiness. In order to know whether something fits or not, we each have to understand who we are and what we would like to do as our service... If certain gender roles are not congruent, one lets it go. There will be sense of guilt or censure from those who want us to conform, but that's just another lovely yellow ray balancing catalyst to accept.
Back to square one: who are you? What are you doing here?
The issue with feeling uncomfortable in certain roles is just catalyst. It's really awesome catalyst bc you can look at what compels you to do something, while feeling rather uncomfortable doing it.
