Description: A three panel comic. In the first picture a caption says “As a cis person, you have to try really hard to be your assigned gender.” A smiling stick figure responds with “OK.” In the second picture a caption says “As a trans person, you have to try really hard to be your true gender.” The same smiling stick figure responds with “OK.” once more. In the last picture the caption says “What if you let go instead?” The stick figure stares with eyes wide open.
This one made a serious crack in my egg back in the day.
That was more or less what convinced me to just say: “fuck it, I’m either gendergluid or non binary and I don’t care enough to actually fund out” so now I just say I’m enby
Gendergluid, like it changes but sloowly 😁
My gender will adhere to any porous surface.
no, i feel comf actin fem <3 <3 <3 <3
i jus which i lookd fem or felt fem or sounded fem or smelled fem or actulli acted fem ;(
Same. I resemble john belushi except with a goatee, long hair, and glasses; also a bit taller and deeper voice.
Actually just bigger in almost every dimension. I highly doubt anyone makes nice womens style shoes in a large mens sizing with 6E width and flat feet 3+ inches thick🥲
I wasn’t sure if I was genderfluid or feminine or enby, but then I found a fun term called genderfae. It means fluid between feminine and enby, but never masculine, and it fits me so well.
Is there a term like this for masc/enby?
“Genderfaun” is one I’ve heard before!
I love it, thanks!
That’s me.
I mean I still have an [M] on my ID card and have the usual boy-bits and features, but I never really cared — or fit in — when I was expected to do well in sports or defend myself against bullies. I always wondered why dudes were expected to wear drab or identifiable sports colors, or the same uniform tuxedo.
But today I am not a man. Man-null. The boolean opposite of man. Enby or agender when I can tick those boxes.
I’ve long turned in my proverbial man card.
The definitions of manhood I had as a kid turned out to be simple adulting by the 90s (everyone is expected to do accounting and housework and late shifts). Everyone not in the ownership class (or their police contingent) are expected to act maturely and be responsible.
Exemplars of men include Donald J. Trump, Matt Walsh, Joe Rogan, Ben Shapiro, Andrew Tate…
…my MAGA loyalist, FOX-news–watching father.
I want to be as unlike these guys as I can.
I have no gender.
is it possible to identify as anti-identitarian? someone who is against the concept of having a target identity, gender or otherwise, and tailoring behaviors to craft an image of that identity? because why should you? you’re a mote of dust floating in a sunbeam. literally nothing matters. go ahead and get weird as you please.
As the psychologists love to say: “You cannot have no behavior”, because even completely passive behavior is still behavior. Identity is the same way. But semantics aside, I definitely agree that people should get as weird as they please.
there’s a difference between “i identify as” and “other people perceive me as”
fuck other people. stop perceiving me.
- Make up some ridiculous behaviour trait
- Not doing this behaviour is still this behaviour
- We are all exhibiting “insert your ridiculous behaviour of choice”
agender, I like it
Agender does seem very in line with the idea of letting go of gender.
There’s a bit of nuance, but ye it’s essentially not wanting to deal with gender. Or just not having shits to give about it
