does anybody else feel differently about their gender in different languages? bc i do and it's making figuring all this out a bit more difficult............
#ok so. in english im cool w being a guy a man a dude a whatever masculine term you can think off#being called sir or mister and having ppl use he for me feels right#like yeah sure i still feel like a guy but a little bit to the left but it's such a little bit that i feel like it doesnt rly matter#but then we get to fucking german.#and all those wonderfully gendered terms like herr and sohn and er and bruder and mann just feel like Too Much#and idk if it feels like too much in a this is mostly internalized bs way or in a this is smth i should look into more way#w german it's like i dont like the masculine terms but i still hate feminine terms wayyy more so. hm.#and every gender neutral option in german just sounds Wrong to me like all the nonbinary pronouns feel bad to me#like it's cool that they exist but thinking abt using them for me is just very no. but w english id be cool with they too.....#oh and with spanish i fucking love the way you make spanish words gender neutral!#but ofc spanish is the language where i feel most comfortable w every masculine word and adjective form!!#like yes pls do call me hermano or seΓ±or or whatevet#and it's like what the actual fuck am i supposed to do with all this.#why am i the most nonbinary in the language that is the most gendered with the least alternatives that i like??#like idk i wanna use they/them but only in german fkdgdjdg but german doesnt have any version of they/them that i like#and it feels like any sort of experimenting w gender i do here wont rly matter#bc in the end it wont help me with figuring anything out in german πŸ™ƒ#if anyone actually reads this. help me pls lol
