Welcome!
Hello, Ilfinestrino, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 03:13, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

Ideas
1.Female masculinities 2.Third gender 3.Transfeminism 4.Bi-gender 5.Androgyny

I will be deciphering the various analytical frameworks of female masculinities such as: penis envy, female masculinity as a “defense mechanism” and the correlation between homosexuality and female masculinity. I will be analyzing the works of Robert Stoller and Judith Butler.

Comments on your sandbox draft
Hello Ilfinestrino! I read over your sandbox draft and have a few comments. First, you will need to have a lot more citations. Basically, everything you write on Wikipedia has to be verifiable through your citations. Wikipedia doesn't allow any original research or original arguments. Statements like "Those lacking a penis use their minds to create their explanation of why they are homosexuals instead of accepting that they could be a lesbian without a penis." definitely need a citation or they will quickly be removed from the article. Second, your existing draft is a bit too heavy on theory and jargon. Wikipedia articles should be written in a style that is accessible and understandable to as many readers as possible. Instead of jumping straight into analysis on how female masculinity is related to penis envy, start with the basics: Basically you should write your content as if you are trying to explain female masculinity to a 12 year old, not to a college professor. Hope the feedback is helpful. Let me know if you have any questions. Kaldari (talk) 18:38, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
