Random question that I imagine the answer to is no for everyone except Misha: does anyone have any experience figuring out any genderqueer aspects of their personality or such? PM me if you don't want to talk about it in public, but since I came out and all this stuff came to the fore it's something I've been thinking about. Like, I think that's where all the cute, cheery stuff is coming from, and when I was like 17 I did mess around with some crossdressing, so it's something I want to explore a bit more, make myself feel even more comfortable with myself you know?

To be honest I have no idea what gender queer is, but if it has to do with cross dressing or using make up or stuff like that, then no...I never felt inclined to do/use that.

You remind me so much of my Scottish friend from a different site :p

Something that might be of interest: I don't feel like I have a different personality when expressing myself in the correct gender but I feel more complete.

Queer just essentially means aside from the ordinary. In this case is basically a catch all for everything that's not blatantly masculine/feminine

It covers androgeny, bigender, agender etc

I guess it's kind of like...while I am a man, there are aspects of my personality that are typically more feminine traits, and I'm not sure how to explore them fully? Like, if transgender is you feel like your body doesn't match your gender, this is like my body matches most of my gender?

I don't know

It's weird and complicated and I can't figure it out, haha

what a helpful response ;p

Hey! How's it going? :3

Haha, what site?

And yeah, I guess it's kind of like that. Like I'm still the same person, but in certain moods I don't feel like I can express myself as well as I want to?

Hmm.

I had this discussion with friends too. I personally think a response with 'no' is actually helpful (albeit not as much as yes) because at least the person who asked the question knows he cannot expect the thing asked from that person instead of feeling ignored.

If I ask in a room: Does anyone know how to convert a PNG file, I rather hear 'no' than no answer at all.

Yeah I did for a while, let's sayI explored those feelings and I came to the conclusion that I'm extremely happy as a man.
I knew I could never really be that feminine since I'm not even remotely attracted to masculinity.

It's a private forum so you wouldn't know it.
Also I find I'm a ton better at role playing female characters than male (which sounds dumb but it happens). I end up playing the same flat male character every time but I'm much more willing to be expressive and even assertive with female characters. That comes across on forums too I think but due to circumstances, not yet Irl


I don't know if you've seen the genderbread person before but it's worth thinking about

One thing I think is worth considering if it's how you act that's not completely male (expression) or who you are (identity)

I'm attracted primarily to people who are similarly feminine to me.

If you lie to your sexual partners and lie to yourself, eventually everything will work itself out.

You just have to lie often and convincingly. For your whole life if necessary.

You know I've wanted a mass effect pen and paper rpg for years, but a Star Trek one would be 10x better. It really has the best universe for such a thing

Gender identity has no bearing on what you're attracted to

Some interesting stuff here. I'm more comfortable role playing as guys, but I feel like if I try roleplaying as women I feel like I'm just being an imposter I guess?

On identity vs expression...hmm. I really don't know. I need to think.

It does sound like it's more expression related from the way you talk about it but that could just because you haven't explored it much yet. Then again, my desire to wear girls clothes came from feeling like I was a girl, not any initial attraction to them in particular


I'm not sure tho how one who presents as a man can mix some femininity comfortably in their daily life. Like that would take some thick skin but maybe it's just important enough that one would be able to get over it.
I mean Jaden smith does a good job of mixing styles and such but of course people treat him like a joke unfortunately

Also of course it doesn't entirely matter that you find a word to describe you. What matters most is allowing yourself to be comfortable with who you are

Hmm. I mean I do feel like most of me is male but there's a part which isn't I guess? But then I get into a weird semantic thing of "what is male/female" and I don't know. Maybe it is just expression, maybe it's not. Maybe it's just that part of me wants to be cute and mot masculine, but is still male. Though I have thought about using female pronouns every now and then. Basically...I am confused as hell, haha

Yeah, there's definite social problems with being more feminine while still presenting as male, but I think if I ever get to the point where I would be comfortable going out like that it should be ok. For one, I live in Brighton, it wouldn't be far from the most out of the ordinary thing anyone would see. Also, I've had a lot of people think I'm female anyway because of the hair, haha

And of course. I guess I'm not so much looking for a label I'm just trying to figure out who I actually am. I kind of don't know too well anymore, haha :3
 
In all seriousness, Jaden may be on the autism spectrum.

I mean his twitter feed is pretty lol at first but then you dig deeper and then you're like "Ooooohhhh shit, he may be on the spectrum."

There's also people who alternate between genders (can't remember the word for that). If you feel like both but not necessarily at the same time it could be like that.
It's definitely something I don't understand tho. Nonbinary genders still escape me a good bit. Definitely harder to understand something without experience in the matter

Might be worth checking out your local LGBT center and see how other people deal with similar things.

No, he's just a spoilt rich idiot who's been parented weird, people get fucked up later in life when theres no one around to tell them no, imagine how strange you'd be if from day one nobody said no to you.

Well there's gender fluid, dunno if that's what you're thinking of. And yeah it's weird and confusing and hard for even me to wrap my head around it, even though I'm the one experiencing it, haha

That sounds like it might be a good idea. Might wait until after CBT though as even talking about it here is giving me a slight bit of anxious discomfort

I appreciate the talk though :3 Thanks c:

Need to do laundry, hit the gym, head to the bank, get my weekly haircut, eyebrows cleaned up, pick up alcohol and things, then somehow wait patiently to go out

Anyone else have a Friday ritual they do every week?
