It is #EnigMarch, and I might design a puzzle if given a nudge.

It's interesting that PULL and PUSH are antonyms and yet have the same number of letters. Not just about the same, give or take, but exactly the same. Furthermore, both the former and the latter in the pair have a couple of letters that are the same and in the same positions. Anyhow, here's a puzzle:

exert force on so as to cause movement toward oneself PULL PU PUSH exert force on in order to move them away from oneself
existing in thought or as an idea _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ existing in a material or physical form
viewed independently _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ viewed in terms of something else
 
stock market buyer _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ stock market seller
consisting of two equal or similar parts or things _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ individually separate or disconnected from others
person accused in a court of law _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ person who brings a case against another in a court of law
maintain an upright position or posture _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ give way to pressure or influence

You should get a phrase that's not exactly an oxymoron, but not exactly not an oxymoron, either. (Alas, it doesn't have any same-letters, same-position thingies; I'm not that amazing.)
