Likes singing, reading, and classic cartoons? This may sound like a stupid question but I had to get people's opinions on this. I don't know.

Not at all, man. I love reading - in fact, I want to be a writer. And there are lots of male singers and male fans of classic cartoons. I wouldn't worry about it.

Never mind. I'm watching Beauty and the Beast on the Disney channel right now and discovered men can't read.

Nope. I love singing (even if I'm not that good at it), I love reading when I can and I shamelessly watch cartoons, the classics as well as the newer ones. So no, it's not weird. Just interests.

I love singing too man, that's why I asked about it But I am kind of worried about what T is going to do to my voice (because right now I'm good at it) when I start transition.

Okay first of all, classic cartoons are the best! I don't care what gender, sex, species, or whatever you are, everyone should watch old cartoons!

and also, reading is definitely fun =)
and i am a horrible singer but i sing to the radio anyways sometimes, i don't care who's around X3

so there you go =P another guy that likes those things.
(p.s. i like unicorns too hehe)

No, not at all.

John Lennon love all those things.  Nobody would ever suggest he was not a man.  It also made him rich beyond his wildest dreams...

singing and reading are gender neutral.  And classic cartoons, well, I love the classic disney moies. not all guys have to be matcho and only want to watch cars exploding.

Real men have a wide range of activities.

Singing- Ummm, how many male vocalists are there?

Reading- How many famous writers are male?

Cartoons- Gender neutral

All activities are gender neutral.

Bugs Bunny cross-dresses all the time, dude.

I wouldn't sweat it.

Weird? Not at all!

I love to watch classic cartoons, and so do a bunch of the guys I work with. One of them is a singer in a band too (and I sing in the car....aheh....).  As far as reading goes...I work in a bookstore, and I can safely assure you that yes, men read. A lot. In fact, its more rare to find a guy that doesn't.  And almost all of us, male and female, who work there either write fiction or poetry.

There really aren't any gender-specific hobbies anymore....Even traditionally 'female' hobbies like sewing and cooking are neutral now. (for example, one guy I work with used to be a pro restaurant chef, and another makes costumes in his off-time).

No need to worry about it. If somebody tries to give you grief about a hobby of yours, they are the uninformed, unenlightened one. 

I can't sing to save my life but my vocalist can! XD I suppose one could say there's a fine line when it comes to singing but then I enjoy anything from heavy metal to the likes of Adam Lambert.

Reading- I use to read daily and now I just read in my rare down time. Currently I have a ritual of reading each night while I relax but that might change soon due to work. Needless to say, my shelves are crammed with various books (I love collecting all kinds of information) and I'll be sad to leave them behind when I move.

Cartoons! My band mates joke that I'm going to end up being the beef cake guitarist who secretly hides out in the back of the tour bus so he can watch Sponge Bob Squarepants. ....And they'd be right. Sometimes, when I get a day to flip through channels, I watch some oldies I grew up with. It's just good times!

Heh. Thanks guys. I was questioning myself when I started to watch some Christmas classics like Rudolph and the Grinch. But I guess it's just a silly thing that I don't need to worry about!

Yeah guys can read lol! When my mom and therapist were talking, she told my mom to write down reasons she doesn't think I'm male, and one of those things was that I like reading XDD I was like really? Can men not read? She seemed really embarrassed when I brought it up to her later. So yeah. Don't worry. You do whatever the hell you wanna do. I mean jeez, I bake like crazy, but I'm still a man.

My husband does all those things.  He majored in music in college, as a matter of fact.

^{Naw, man.  I totally think it's perfectly fine to like stuff like that, definitely nothing wrong with it in the least!}

I was watching the old My Little Pony cartoons with some friends last night.
