I wouldn't haven't apologized in the first place outside of a general apology from a place of regard for others' feelings when you intended no harm. The statement itself was an honest and reasonable expression of experience shared in a space of supposed acceptance. I'm sorry you've been through this with your friends.

That said, as an ignorant outsider, this looks like a tempest in a teacup. If I wore a strap-on, I'd probably say it made me feel like a man/masculine as well. If that offended someone, I'd politely apologize for offending them. Seems like that should have been the end of it. The fact that it wasn't seems a bit like a drama bomb went off and there might be a feeding frenzy on the attention spotlight. To my experience, it'll blow over in a few months, and if they were friends worth having, they'll find a way to mend bridges together. But I realized that right now, being in the middle of it sux. Hoping it blows over soon. *hugs*Tamarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16850864663751815820noreply@blogger.com
