y’know, i’ve been wondering. is it still considered trans if i use they/it/he? like, i am absolutely more masculine than feminine, but i wouldn’t really call myself trans. i identify as blankboy, but also lean a little more towards genderblank and genderfree, hence why he/him is my third preference. i’m genuinely curious about the technicalities, so if someone has any answers… :)
HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!!!!!
these are just my headcanons for these characters, lemme know yours!
ive come to realize something about the way we think about ourselves. gender isnt a social construct. heres why:
it implies that if there was no society, there wouldnt be any gender but people who are isolated from society can still have a gender
if all it took to be a woman was to simply identify as a woman, a transmasc egg would be considered a woman
it kinda feeds into the gender = gender expression myth
people from ye olden days and from other cultures who have different words for being trans like hijra instead of enby wouldnt be that gender because its a different label
tying back to that first point, if you need society to have a gender, wouldnt that make it a choice?
i propose this: gender is a psychological connection to femmininity/masculinity/androgyny/etc. like zodiacs, youre stuck with it for life, but how it applies to you is different then how it applies to someone else with the same zodiac/gender. how you interpret it can be different. you can call a color teal or cyan or turquoise but that doesnt change what color it is. and even if youre really short, that doesnt stop you from wearing heels, like how being a man doesnt stop you from wearing a dress. to be a woman, you have a psychological connection to femininity. you can present masculine, but inside its still femme. same thing for feminine presenting men and feminine/masculine presenting enbies.
thanks for reading, have a great day :)
hi
you're not alone
<3
am i the only one who's gender feelings involve leaning away from your agab on the inside (in your feelings, gender identity and affirming terms...)
and then the second you include that in your presentation, it feels weird and overwhelming and not accurate to yourself?
like genuinely is that just me?
hi, i'm questioning whether or not i'm a trans demigirl, and I'm looking for clothes to try to see if a femme presentation is something i like/love/adore.
Would love any tips and recommendations you may have <3
Note: yes, i know that being a demigirl and transfemme and presenting femme are not the same AND i want to try it as part of the process
struggling to figure out what to do when there's no gender neutral bathroom? Do what I do in these circumstances:
be a little sad about it
say "good thing gender is fake"
pick

Am I asexual because I’m trans? Or do I just have dysphoria because I’m asexual? Or do I just hate my body?
