Doesnt the forced dissolution of those socio-cultural codes of masculinity and feminity also imply a sort of repression from people who subscribe to those notions at large?
Seems like people already know that there is no bound "true" essence of what is maculine or feminine but they still have their preferences and use these labels to destinguish them, like we do with all sort of categories and names. Heck, if history taught us anything is that we in fact love to repress other people and even ourselves with labels, and the investments to do reach them.

It all seems harmless and easy when we are refering to things as "socio-cultural" but when we move that out of the way and see that this is in fact people's subjective opinions and notions that we are trying to overcode to fit with new ones that we are implying to be more "liberating" and "harmless" make it all seem like very naive thinking to me, from what i see you cant really decode something without putting another code running in it, the man that tries to fit himself into a "traditional" masculine model is running a code that is just as dogmatic and oppressive as the other that thinks he is free from those and thinks he is trying to hear the ones to his true desire.

Cant help but compare it to christianity back during its proselytizing eras before and during colonialism, that sometimes would say to pagans that their "true self" was something in par with the christian model and their pagan ways of life were fake codes of oppression. Or how neoclassical economists think that goverments should stop "regulating" the market when in fact wether the goverment truly does something or not about the economy its always a form of regulation itself either way.
