Anything related to being trans or gender-nonconforming!
Everyone is entitled to their opinions but please be kind, no hate allowed!

Yo! I'm intersex and trans :3 Had symptoms of very high testosterone before transition and decided it wasn't enough, hehe.
I got a weirrrrrd gender internally but as far as others are concerned I'm just he/him and male terms. A cryptic enby, if you will,

im trans guy (he/they) i jokingly have game/gamer and fur/furry pronouns also because im very epic lmoa

hellooo i'm nonbinary and currently trying to get a legal name change :D
considering getting my gender changed on official documents but ehhhh....maybe, maybe not
in terms of gender, i have no gender >:) but if i had to describe my gender i'd say i'm just a little guy. just a little dude y'know :^)

Hi! I was looking through older forum posts and came across this.
I’ve been wondering for a while how gender feels as a cis person who has never been too aware of my own gender. If anyone would like to describe how their gender or lack of gender kinda feels(?) I’d love to learn!
If this is rude, weird, or anything, I’ll happily delete this reply!

I'm intersex and nonbinary! I was so confused and uncomfortable no matter what I did gender-wise until I finally found out I was intersex, and then everything just kind of... clicked. I'm mostly closeted due to the region I live in being pretty Yikes towards people like me, and I don't really have a choice in which hormones I can take due to how it affects my chronic health issues, but I still get clocked no matter what I do lol

My partner, our friend circle, and my mom are all supportive of me at least, so I can endure it!

One day I hope I can present how I feel on the inside, which is like. Gender: soup of the day. Gender: mad scientist. Gender: convergent evolution el chupacabra mimic. I'm on that imaginary numbers type gender. That outside context stuff. The full [unintelligible] suite.

Genderqueer/Nonbinary here!
They/It pronouns.

How I would describe my gender is: not woman, not man, just me but also a creature! My gender is "that thing" people see outside at night and cannot explain.

Been thinking about dabbling back into xenogenders and neopronouns cause I was IDing with some a few years ago before a thing happened — nothing from the community, but from someone I'm close to — and I dropped and avoided anything to do with them.

@Dandelion
I'm not sure about anyone else, but this is an analogy that always worked really well for me:

Imagine your gender as a sweater that your parents/society gave you: some people(usually cis peeps) like this sweater and keep it their entire lives. Some cis folks might change their sweater a little(those that challenge man and woman stereotypes).
Some people don't like the sweater they've been given - they might swap it out for a new one(trans folks), wear different sweaters at different times(genderfluid folks), or they might not wear a sweater, instead opting for a shirt(non-binary folks). Some might not even wear a top at all(agender folks, though this unfortunately implies that you'll only find them in warm climates).
For many of the folks that don't like their given sweater, being reminded that they're wearing it makes them suddenly very aware if how itchy it is or they're aware that this sweater is incredibly uncomfortable every second of every day(this is called gender dysphoria and it sucks horribly).

Obviously this isn't a perfect analogy(though I've yet to see a perfect one that holds up to scrutiny), but I hope this helps!! If the gender dysphoria part doesn't make a ton of sense, try looking into it!! I'm mainly only able to draw on my own experience, but I've also heard it being likened to suffocating pressure, the feeling of not showering for many many days, like their skin is too-tight over their body, and a few others that I've also heard being/that sound very similar to those used by people uncomfortable with their weight.



Oh, I almost forgot: hi!! I'm non-binary masc! I recently had to give away a too-small binder and can't currently get a new one(enviroment), but for others who need binders/fem shapewear and doesn't have the money, PoP offers them for free in over 90 countries! (Shapewear is a binder for transfems!)

PoP is a non-profit organization that also helps with HRT(12 months of free care!!!) and gender-affirming care(surgeries and permanent hair removal). Tbh if I had the money I'd buy a banner so that more people could access it/donate, but . . . . I don't :')

Hi @Cindertail! Thank you for the analogy! It makes quite a bit of sense. And yeah, that sucks many of y’all go through dysphoria. It’s definitely not fair! Also it’s really cool what PoP is doing, I’ll have to check it out and tell my friend about it!
I hope you’re safe in your environment and are able to get a new binder asap!

I'm still figuring myself out.

But at the time I consider myself Genderfluid.
Woman, somedays enby and sometimes agender.
It can also fluctuate on my mood. Most of the time I just meh. Plus my voice is naturally high especially in recording even if in my mid 20's.

Anyway I am gonna go sleep now. Night!
