Just a magical kitten
And thanks! I might have gone through this lifetime staying as a woman and be okay. Gender isn’t that big of a deal for me since i neither want to be strictly femine nor masculine. Yet i don’t exactly feel non-binary. But having realized i havw the choice to be a man and still be as feminine as i want, i def 100% want that. It just sounds more fun, and the fact that i so look forward to fully living that perspective as i transition socially fills me with excitement the more i process it 🙌🏼 so this is permission to post a wall of random gender thoughts, right? As a child I was into masculine things because I thought that it would get me taken more seriously (was such a Mulan fankid, practically know the entire movie by heart at this point) but as an adult I realize I'm not actually a man and I don't want to be one. I get very aggravated when I get assumed to be male on the Internet and I'm not especially masculine but nor am I feminine. However (thanks patriarchy) I still think if I could have done it all over I'd prefer to be amab instead of afab. I'm a nerd, men tend to be more accepted in nerdy hobbies/professions in general, and there isn't any especially feminine thing I like that it would be seen as unmasculine for a man to like. (maybe cats? do men who like cats still get stereotyped as feminine?) plus, there's just male privilege in general, the pay gap, the pink tax, doctors understanding/listening to men's health problems more than women's etc. the only thing I'd probably be sad about is not getting to get married to my husband, because he is straight. To be fair, I don't really feel oppressed, harassed, or discriminated against for being female in my day-to-day. So I'm not exactly part of the in-group of angry feminists either. The worst I get to be is annoyed that women are perpetually sidelined in all the media genres I like. On the other other hand even without the patriarchy I'd still probably want to get rid of my fem-assigned organs, I never want to birth biological children so those things are USELESS to me, all they do is cause me pain every month, I'd gladly donate them to a good cause if someone wanted them. "ok have you considered nonbinary" I did, I discovered I really don't vibe with they/them pronouns, and all in all it doesn't give me enough "gender euphoria" (I still have no idea what the actual heck that is supposed to feel like, fwiw, because I sure don't get it from being female) to be worth my time to try to socially transition and get other people on board with it.
