Another example: a woman I was a university with - extremely successful in her career, but one confided to me that she was always worried she came across as far too masculine. It actually made me laugh, because she was one of the most feminine (and least masculine) people I knew.
She was probably mainly referring to her behaviour and trying to 'compensate' for it through her looks.
