Good morning all! I’ve been up since 6:15am, and I’ve got a thing I’ve been meaning to share since National Coming Out Day, so I’m gonna do it now while I’m not awake enough to care about this being “perfect.” So we all know I’m bisexual, right, and how I thought I was straight until I was 21 doing a production of Three Musketeers? Well, over the past year, I’ve come to realize that I’m also not as cis as I thought I was all my life! I’m genderfae! And my pronouns are fae/faer! What does that mean for me? It means that I fluctuate between many genders, but all of those genders are at least vaguely feminine. (Fun fact: woman is one of them! But it’s not the only one, it’s very tied to my race, and I feel so much more myself when I call myself genderfae) It also means that I do not want to be referred to as a girl or a lady, though other gendered terms such as daughter, sister, aunt are fine. Woman is sometimes ok, but I really only like it when my Blackness is also being talked about, and when other Black femmes are doing the talking. I’ve attached a picture of the genderfae flag and a pronoun worksheet for anyone that wants to practice, because I know I had to practice my own dang pronouns, so I want to help other people do the same thing! To recap! Gender identity: genderfae Pronouns: fae/faer Good descriptors: person, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, girlfriend, fae Personally painful descriptors: girl, woman, lady Love you all 💚💛🤍💕💜 #genderfae #nationalcomingoutday #latepost #rightontimepost https://www.instagram.com/p/CVqNTFyFoPx/?utm_medium=tumblr
