Wooh Tucker’s finally done! Did he sew all the patches for Team Phantom? Absolutely. Is he bros with Wulf? Yes. (The guy saved his afterlife and is one of the few (friendly) people that understand *Esperanto. And they’re both carnivores, need I say more?)

Now who to draw next? Sam or Valerie…🤔

#Tucker Foley #Danny Phantom #Wulf #dp fanart #e-ghost series #cryxdraws #e-boy series #with e-girls/nbs on the way #i know the crossdressing was a ‘’joke’’ but listen #🙏#nb tucker and sam #genderqueer sam #break all the conventions #and tucker idgaf: agender #everyone is queer au lets go #anywho HC time #i j really vibe with the idea that Tuck is great at making friends with ghosts to a point his house becomes a safe haven in amity for them #his parents are really chill about it once they realize they’re safe and arguably more protected from hostile ghosts than even FentonWorks #based off community and kindness instead of weapons and ectophobia #the juxtaposition between Danny’s and Tucker’s house could be insane #also from Tuck’s POV he really just is that anime protag with nothing but the power of tech and friendship on his side lmao #like yah my bestie is a full time superhero #who is also the ghost king #a ghost convict #that is a giant dimension-tearing werewolf #a ghost princess #that turns into a fire breathing dragon #to name a few #go ahead and try shit #danny doesnt have to worry about him at all lmao

venting in tags about gender n shit (long as hell) (u can comment and talk 2 me as always :3)

#okay so i got a really masc haircut about a month ago and i know it's just a haircut but holy shit has it changed EVERYTHING for me #like.... i've always leaned masc except 1) before i came out 2) when i was actively in love with someone who i knew liked femmes #and they always described me as a fem. because that's what i showed her. because i wanted to be with her.#but lowkey whenever i'm in a not-impressing-anyone raw-dogging-life-no-crush era i always resort to a very masc style #like masc being my default and i'd only lean fem to impress people whether it's for love or peer pressure in a specific setting #like ''dressing up'' has always been a form of drag to me. like something i HAD to do to fit in or impress my parents (scott favor core)#but ever since this haircut i've realized... i could just BE masc innately like i really don't have to be womanly if i don't want to #which i usually don't. again i have only ever dressed fem for other people. but it's not even being masc that attracts me on its own #it's like. being masc in a distinctly lesbian way. as in whenever i look in the mirror i don't wanna be like a Guy i wanna be a dyke.#like lesbian as a gender identity too sort of thing honestly. okay i've been waffling but basically i sort of want to call myself butch #but i don't know if i like... can?? if i'm allowed to???#everyone always says it's MORE than just wearing boy clothes and not wearing makeup and having short hair (which i already do all those)#i mean i've always id'd as genderqueer because it literally just means gender weird and i experience gender in a queer way #what's probably the most telling is that my friends (all queer) CALL me a butch lesbian #like every time they do i feel really internally validated. it's not just my clothes but my personality too ig is what people tell me #i have a higher pitched voice relatively speaking but apparently the way i talk is quote ''very clockably into women''#which?? gender euphoria asf. my best friend specifically he (gay trans guy) always uses butch to describe me very intuitively #people have also noticed that i ''transitioned'' in all aspects except hormonally. like ppl have commented and noticed my masculinzation #but at the same time i always feel rly haunted by my ex relationships because one wanted me to be more masc #(she's the one who came out as straight and would treat me like a man) which i didn't like and i didn't like playing up being fem either #bc now it feels like she (butch) won't believe me if i called myself butch too bc she remembers me being femme #idk i feel like there's her voice in my head all the time that sees everything i do through her eyes (i'm lowkey still in love)#i feel like even though this comes so naturally to me i must be putting on a performance #even though i've actually read stone butch blues and done research into the history and i truly love and id with the culture like i rly do #that im still just a sad imitation of a butch lesbian and can never really be a part of it because i used to enjoy dressing up sometimes #like it's so stupid but can i still be butch if i wore a dress to prom and i think i looked good in it??#even though i was envious of my friends who wore suits?? that i used to try goth makeup?? that i liked long dresses??#that i enjoyed stacked necklaces and rings on every finger???#and tbh ALL OF THAT CAME FROM A CONCIOUS EFFORT TO FEMINIZE MYSELF IN JUNIOR YEAR OF HIGHSCHOOL WHEN I WAS 16 #because omfg it was 2 months before junior prom and i was worried that i was too masc and wanted to get comfortable with being fem

Heya! so this is probably really dumb... I figured I am aegosexual but I don't feel comfortable (yet) telling anybody irl since it's such a niche sexuality and I don't wanna do the explaining or have people thinking I am weird. would I still be valid if I just said I am ace/on the ace spec? I think that would make me feel most comfy but I don't wanna be a hypocrite. idk, sorry I cannot own up to it (yet?)

hi, i wrote a response to this then i read it over again and realized it sounded harsh. so, you know, just assume i'm not being harsh at you, i'm being harsh on your behalf.

you don't owe anyone shit. do i tell everyone i'm a genderqueer bigender graydemisexual omnigay bi lesbian turigirl every single time? no, i say i'm genderqueer, demi, and bi. not even most of my friends know all my specific labels. (just strangers on tumblr i guess..)

you are asexual. absolutely nobody needs to know anything more than that if you don't feel like telling them. your comfort comes first.

Any tips for getting over genderqueer imposter syndrome?

Hey, that's a good question. We've struggled with this somewhat

I think the important thing to remind yourself is that there is no one way to be genderqueer- it can be anyone and everyone. Genderqueer can refer to how you present, or how you feel on the inside. The way that you are genderqueer is going to uniquely different from how other people express their genderqueerness, and that's the beauty of it.

Whether or not you present in a binary fashion, or mix and match masculine and feminine clothes, you are genderqueer. I've had people tell me that somehow, my outfits weren't genderqueer enough, so I think it's pretty safe to say that logic doesn't make any sense. There's no way to be genderqueer "enough", you are more than enough just by being you, and by identifying as genderqueer. You do not have to jump through hoops, have dysphoria, or look like the most androgynous person to ever have existed.

You can just be you. You can be genderqueer in your own way. All of us are. There are no two genderqueer people who are exactly alike. Blaze your own trail, define what it means for you. No one else has the right to tell you what you are or are not, especially with a term that can mean so many different things. So many different people can be and feel genderqueer.

It can be big or small, quiet or loud, something or nothing at all, doesn't matter your reason, you are welcome to the genderqueer community if that's who you feel you are. Once you realize no one else can be genderqueer the way you are, it frees you. I hope that helps some, take care of yourself, good luck in your journey. You will always be genderqueer "enough". -K

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!

I'm only a little late, but better late than never!! Today I have for you: 16 recolours and an overlay, totaling to 17 pieces of cc!

I know some of these have been recoloured for pride before, but I've never been happy with some of them, so I did it myself!

This started out as a personal recolour series for myself and my partner, but I wanted to share it with everyone! Because of that, please note that certain flags/terms were chosen with my personal wants/preferences in mind first, and then others I thought others might want/are never included in any recolour. If a flag is included that isn't the most popular version of it, or feels as though it might not fit, this would be why.

BGC, some meshes included, some not.

150 swatches per item, not including the overlays.

Overlays are located in the Toenail category.

The hoodies are an update to This Piece of CC that I made last year, and will replace the originals.

I realize this is a LOT of flags. It’s a lot for me to even remember. Feel free to remove swatches you’re not going to use, the original will always remain up if you want any back!

I won't be doing flag requests for these, but if you have a flag you'd like to see in game, may I interest you in This?

Every single item uses the same flags; if you feel something doesn't fit a particular piece of CC that's not my problem.

Don’t claim it as your own, and please feel free to tag me if you use it!

Most textures were sourced from Pride-Flags Deviant art, LGBTA Wiki, Tumblr, Twitter, or google search.

T[SW]ERFS/Bigots/Exclus die! You are not welcome to this CC :)

DOWNLOAD: [SFS] | [MF]

Meshes: [Answer] [Illusion] [Paper Plane] [Circle Earring]* [Bottlecap Earring]* [Adult Hoodies] [Bandana]* [Necklaces] [Child Hoodie] [Binder] * = REQUIRED

Below is a list of every flag included. Some flags include uncensored reclaimed slurs. If you don’t care for/disagree with a flag/term, just delete it from the file. I do not care, I will not be involved in any discourse, and if you message me about it, I will just ignore you. Please respect my boundaries. Thank you. Happy pride!

See also: [Pronoun Hoodies] [More Pride Flags v2] [Pride Thigh Highs] <- Made by my partner, using the same flags as below!

i love chuuya figuring out they're nonbinary during the time they're with the sheep or it always being something the just sort of Knew. i like the idea of them feeling that disconnect from the gender binary as far back as their memory goes and just rolling with it. but the more i think about it, the more i also like it not being something they figure out until post-doa arc/post-canon.

like.. chuuya not having the language or the means to figure out what they feel in terms of gender while with the sheep (or even in their early mafia days) and so they just sort of. push it down and ignore it. and they hold onto the concept of masculinity because fitting into the binary keeps them human, in their eyes. they don't need any more reasons for people to question their humanity; they don't need any more reason to question it themself. but slowly, they begin to realize they've been holding themself to a different standard than everyone else. gin can play around with their gender identity and presentation, and chuuya has never seen them as less human for it. ranpo can casually drop that they're not a man after chuuya mistakenly refers to them as one, and chuuya will correct themself without batting an eye. when akutagawa starts referring to atsushi with they as well as he, chuuya makes a mental note of the change and that's that. so why is it when chuuya wants to separate themself from their birth gender, it's suddenly an argument against their humanity?

maybe it isn't until chuuya is twenty-three (ish) that they truly accept their own genderqueer-ness. maybe it takes years of ignoring the obvious signs before chuuya is ready to accept that part of who they are. maybe ever-confident port mafia executive nakahara chuuya is still unsure about some things, and that's okay, because they've got time to figure it out.

#this post is sponsored by me making chuuya come out as nb near the end of my kunichuu fic #bc i didn't want to go back and change all the pronouns #but still wanted it to be nonbinary chuuya #and also me debating having chuuya come out later in altocbto. if i ever write that far #also i like the idea of them telling kunikida before dazai #like they don't even really Mean to; it just sort of Happens #theyre just talking with kunikida bc they like talking with kunikida and casually mention it and only after the fact #do they realize. oops. probably should have told dazai first...... oh well. kunikida can deal with That mess #chuuya nakahara #bsd #hello grace here

How does Davy go about coming out about his gender in the glam au? 👀

Boy am I glad you asked! So first I wanna talk about how he realizes he’s genderqueer which all comes from Micky convincing him to do the Glam Rock fits for a show.

Davy does the sorta androgynous glam rock stuff, he gets his makeup done, and he assumes that everyone feels a little euphoric when they get their makeup done and put on nice clothes. He didn’t think anything of it until he talks about how he understands why girls will go out and pamper themselves because when he feels like such a pretty princess when he’s all dolled up. Micky and Mike sorta laugh off his phrasing at first assuming he was joking about enjoying feeling like a pretty princess but after making enough comments like that Mike decides to take him aside and ask him about what he really means by that. In that moment Davy realizes it’s not actually normal for guys to want to be a pretty princess and he sorta spirals for a bit having lived so much of his life under the assumption that EVERYONE felt like they had to choose to dress in their assigned gender and that everyone guy had to make a conscious effort to not act in traditionally feminine ways. He tried at first to assign this difference to his sexuality but eventually realizes it really is his gender that’s causing this feeling. Davy doesn’t come out in like a straight forward way, mostly because he isn’t confident that he’s actually right and not misidentifying whats going on, and instead just asks if they think it’d be a good look for the band if he started wearing more feminine costumes too. His friends sorta get what’s happening because they’ve seen and talked to Davy about his gender crisis a lot over the years but Davy credits his coming out as when he first preformed in a feminine costume and felt this insane build up of euphoria during the show and then backstage told Micky and Mike that he thinks he’ll keep doing this even off the stage (this being dressing feminine) and this results in Davy being accidental publicity because news in the late 70s is really curious as to why this guy is so casually wearing “girl clothes” out in public.

Davy’s public image when they started blowing up is that he’s one of those gender non conforming men in rock (like David Bowie style) and while the public doesn’t know about him being genderqueer they are very aware of him being a gender non conforming glam rocker. Mike and Micky are very supportive of his dressing however he wants even though they tend to save the glam stuff for the stage and during big public appearances (Davy is the only one of them that will occasionally wear makeup just out and about but usually only on days where he’s very feminine and/or feeling dysphoric about looking masculine.) Davy doesn’t really have a word to describe what his gender is but he does try to explain to Mike and Micky that it’s not just how he dresses it’s like how he is. Davys really open to Mike and Micky about his gender but always tries to act macho when he’s doing interviews and making appearances because he’s really nervous about what’ll happen if any of this gets out.

One of the first things Peter asks Davy about when they’re back on speaking terms is the way he dresses and Davy at first just snaps at him (because he still doesn’t really feel like he can trust Peter again yet) but the turning point of their relationship is represented by Davy coming out to Peter (who spent most of his time away from them on the queer scene in New York so he ends up understanding what Davy means a lot faster than Mike and Micky did)

TWST GENDER AND SEXUALITY HCS

thanks again for submitting stuff on twitter! i tried to include everyones hcs somehow but also keep it true to my own hcs. again this took forever so sorry for any writing/grammar inconsistencies

⚠️ warnings: i typed the word "transmascpilled" with a straight face, light chapter 3 spoilers!!

last updated: oct 6, 2023

HEARTSLABYUL 🥀

Riddle: Unlabled Questioning Asexual, Transfem (she/any)

because of her parents i think her identity was the last thing on her mind

after going to nrc they found out about... expression?! crazy i know

started to cautiously experiment with his identity, but isnt very open about it and is still figuring himself out.

Ace: Cupioromantic Bisexual, Cisgender (he/him)

is always getting "crushes" on people (he cant tell the difference between platonic and romantic love)

after pining for someone for like a week he gets a little "OHHH" moment

asked cater about it, got laughed at, and was directed to the lgbt wiki

despite this he can feel romantic attraction! he just feels very little. is deuce's qpp/possible romantic partner

Deuce: Pansexual, Gender curious (he/him)

hasnt really thought about his identity much but after some research (an Am I Gay Quiz) he realized he was pansexual

still figuring out his gender

type of fellow to say "HIS PRONOUNS ARE THEY THEM" /j

Cater: Queer, Transmasc NB Genderqueer (he/they/any)

@/heartslabyulian on twt explained it better than me but the resistance against his mom and sisters about "being like them" (feminine) is so transmascpilled

also i think theyre just having fun expressing themself like who cares? wear a skirt, dont bind, grow out and dye your hair, use fem terms, literally just go crazy

Trey: Cisgender Bisexual (he/him)

male/nb preference

pretty confident in his identity but isnt opposed to experimentation

SAVANACLAW 🥩

Leona: Unlabled, Intersex GNC Transfemneu (she/him)

lions are one of natures queerest animals

i think he wouldnt care too much about gender presentation

i was inspired by that gay lion in kenya (as well as the real lion king) and have come to the conclusion that leona kingscholar is bisexual (bangs gavel)

Ruggie: Pansexual, Agender/GNC Transfem (he/she/they)

read a fanfiction where ruggie used she/her and i havent been the same

expresses herself how she wants but doesnt really align with any gender

im conflicted if he would be agender or nonbinary SIGH

Jack: Panromantic Asexual, Gender curious (he/him)

still figuring out his gender just give him a minute

sex repulsed ace, hes really uncomfortable w the topic and thought of sex

all he knows is he likes boys alright

OCTAVINELLE 🐚

Azul: Bisexual, Intersex Transfem (she/he)

i think one of the reasons azul wanted us to get that picture from the museum so bad is not only cos hes self consious of his younger self but because he looked "more masculine" and he just really hated it

me when im in a depressed and self conscious competition and my opponent is azul ashengrotto [insert enel one piece shocked face reaction image]

Floyd: Unlabled, Genderfluid (he/any)

doesnt care for labels he just wants to have fun in the sun!!!

type of guy to go "im a boy but a girl but a Man but a pretty princess but also a mud eating warrior but also--"

just like me fr

Jade: Aromantic Asexual, Agender (they/he)

fucking battery

look i get its probably stereotypical to hc the typically "stoic" guy to be triple A but just hear me out: i dont care (also jade isnt even stoic he is such a silly guy!!)

its MY headcanon account and EYE get to choose which anime boy i project on

SCARABIA 🌞

Kalim: Lesbian, Transfem Genderfluid (she/he)

she has lesbian eyebrows okay?

always sliding around from fem to masc, his outfits often reflect how hes feeling

blink and she switches from ultra pink miniskirt sparkly frilly femme girly teengirl into a baggy pants oversized band shirt beanie wearing 7/11 mountain dew big gulp drinking Creature. seriously iconic

Jamil: Bisexual, Nonbinary (they/he)

they dont have time to worry about their identity

he has BILLS to PAY

but seriously they never got the time to do any self reflection when they were younger and after their OB they were able to fully come to terms with and explore their identity

POMEFIORE 👑

Vil: Queer Polyamorous, Genderqueer Transfem (she/her)

said this already on twitter but she/her vil is so real

figured herself out even before NRC

i dont have much to say about pomefiore as a whole tbh like theyre just Gay it just makes sense?

Rook: Pansexual Polyamorous, Agender (they/them)

this is the one hc i will never ever budge on

i cant explain myself. rook is just agender okay.

the panpoly bit is because he sees beauty in everyone and wants to share beauty with everyone (and he wants potential romantic partners to share beauty with each other as well)

Epel: Gay, Trans man (he/him)

also took an Am I Gay Quiz

asked vil about her identity and for advice on finding himself and stuff

he came out to leona as trans during practice and leona was like "okay? me too? now do 30 pull ups?" and epel was so happy

IGNIHYDE 💀

Idia: Bisexual, Nonbinary (he/they/xe/it ++)

i think lilia canonically uses he/they pronouns for gloomurai. im not fact checking this i will just saw someone on twt say it once and choose to believe

probably found out he was bi after playing an otome game

list of neos: xe/it/exe/cy/vi/byte/if/gore

Ortho: Experimenting (he/it/neos)

someone on twitter said ortho was that ""cringe"" baby queer who is constantly changing his identity and trying out different pronouns

and it reminded me of myself when i was 12 and named myself ""moth"" 😭 so its canon now

idia is supportive and uses his heaps of money to buy new pride flags/pins for whenever ortho comes to a new conclusion

DIASOMNIA 🐉

Malleus: Pansexual, Agender (any pronouns)

doesnt care about gender constructs, but in a way thats like "human gender doesnt make any sense so you can perceive me any way you want and it literally will not matter i dont care"

didnt even realize that going by different pronouns and wearing fem clothes was considered to be out of the norm until being introduced to human society

Lilia: Unlabeled, Agender (no pronouns)

again for fae gender isnt a construct as much as it is for human societies

id imagine lilia doesnt really mind using he/him pronouns after learning about those constructs but really doesnt care for them

Silver: Lesbian, Nonbinary (he/him)

when lilia took silver in, lilia didnt want to get too close to him, so lilia just used he/him on silver as a bitter reminder that silver isnt fae (contrary to raising silver without pronouns like he would typically for a fae child like malleus)

but then lilia got attached anyway LOL but the he/him stuck

kalim and silver are nonbinary lesbians in love

Sebek: Questioning, Questioning Nonbinary (he/him...?)

hes like "STUPID HUMANS AND THEIR GENDER" but at the same time is secretly questioning if its okay to use she/her pronouns, wear a wig, and put on makeup

because his dad is a human he got pronouns and grasped the concept of human gender constructs but was also able to experience his moms side of not caring about it

The way you can see Loki change and grow though the book is so amazing and it's such wonderful writing. Splitting the book into parts was such a good idea because you can see who Loki is before The Situation and after.

Plus the way that Thor is more over the top and stands out compared to Loki following the rules but Thor is praised and Loki is shunned isn't represented better than at the meeting with the elves. Thor can get away with breaking the rules if it makes him look good and therefore makes Asgard look good. Loki will always be in the wrong whether he's following the rules or breaking them.

The way he still wants his father's love and attention after this, how he goes on the mission anyways despite knowing it's just a punishment. It all leads up to when Loki find the mythology book, to when he returns home and realizes that no matter what he does he will always fail. Even in the eyes of Amora he wasn't enough, even Theo suspected he'd be betrayed. Despite everything, this is how he's seen and how he's known.

Plus there's no way Marvel had any say in this book despite their name being plastered on it. Loki gets more genuine characterization and love in this book than in the entire mcu (mostly looking at the TV show). Loki is shown to be more than just a villain in the book, he's shown to have layers and have a complex reason behind the way he is.

I've never seen such good characterization before for the Norse gods before in media except in God of War and it's so so good and I will be thinking about this book for the rest of my life

this is why i heavily HEAVILY recommend this book to everyone who likes loki. this is the perfect book for people who love early MCU loki, this is the perfect book for people who feel like the loki series missed the mark, and this is the perfect book for people who DID like the loki series.

it's a much more sympathetic view of him and his character, it addresses asgard's horrifying politics, he's much more in character for the large majority of the book, he's bisexual, he's genderqueer (this loki read as bigender to me, personally!), he's smart, he uses his magic in clever ways, it does SO many of the things that i really, really wish the series would have and manages not to be racist, transphobic, or antisemitic while doing it

also omg i love god of war too

No offense but are you sure you want to have characters who require a gender study book to understand? Not to mention how hard to read it will be if they keep switching pronouns.

no offense but it's actually not that hard to understand at all. we can start with some basic vocabulary:

non-binary: a term for people whose gender identity does not fall within the traditional, western societal gender binary of man or woman. non-binary identities have existed for millennia and are found in various cultures and societies around the world.

transgender: this is an adjective used to describe someone who does not feel that their gender identity aligns with the gender they were assigned at birth. this includes trans binary people and non-binary people. trans people have always existed, and anyone that tries to tell you otherwise is factually incorrect.

gender identity: this is a person's own internal sense of self - what they know their gender is. someone is a man, or a woman, or a person, or various other terms and identities that exist outside the binary (like genderqueer, agender, bigender, etc). someone's identity is not always outwardly visible, since some people may express their gender differently than what is traditionally expected of them.

gendered pronouns: include he/she/they/zie/xe/ey/fae etc. this is how you refer specifically to a person when you are talking about them (or in this case, reading about them). some languages already have a gender-neutral pronoun that allows you to not ascribe gender to a person that you are not familiar with (for english, it's singular they). nb!Lea and Clementine both use they/them. pronouns are a part of someone's gender presentation, or gender expression, and some people use more than one set of pronouns.

gender presentation: how a person presents themself - typically in regard to fashion as well as pronouns and various other external characteristics. this is how the person chooses to express their gender identity. gender presentation does not always coincide with traditional gender stereotypes - this is gender nonconformity. a woman can present masculine. a man can present feminine. some people do neither, or both. a non-binary person can be gender nonconforming, they can be feminine or masculine or whatever they want; they are still non-binary.

Noel is a non-binary person who uses two sets of pronouns alternatively. he has a more traditionally feminine gender expression but still prefers traditionally masculine gendered terms. xe likes to wear makeup and dresses and likes to be called "sir." alternating pronouns for xem is very easy - i just did it. a little bit of practice and you can do it just as easily.

if you're worried about getting confused in scenes with m!Lea, don't worry, it's already something i am being careful about. it's something i've always considered with my gender-selectable characters, and is why i previously changed Noel's nb pronouns to begin with, since i didn't want it to be confusing in group scenes with Clementine and nb!Lea.

of course, there are plenty of games where all ROs are genderlocked one way or the other, and have the same pronouns - people don't seem to have any problem differentiating characters in those games when all the ROs are together, and i'm sure people will have no trouble with my game, either. or maybe this is just your first time reading about a character with neopronouns, which in that case - how exciting! the more you read the more familiar you will get with how these pronouns work.

if you're still confused then maybe you should pick up one of those "gender study books", i'm sure it will help. or you can use google, which is probably easier. there are plenty of lgbt and trans resources online now if you are curious to learn more. the older you get and the more people you meet the more you are going to realize that not everyone has the same experiences as you, and sometimes you may not understand something right away; that's not a bad thing. it's a chance to learn something new, and a chance to better understand people that are different than you.

and, no offense, but if it's too difficult for you to spend a few minutes searching this stuff up, if it's too difficult for you to have an open mind and consider other people & their identities & their experiences, then maybe this story isn't for you, and you can go back to reading all the other IF games and romance novels that were made for you with their cishet love interests & non-existent trans or gay characters.

trust me, there are plenty of those, with all the gender stereotypes and boring gender roles you could want. that's why i'm writing this game with all the trans characters i want :-)

the fact that there’s bisexuals that are aro and/or ace exclusive is just wild to me bc like you realize what a large part of aspec history is included in bi+ history? we’re two sides of the same coin. especially those bi/mspec people who define their sexuality as “liking everyone equally” that’s why for so long ace/aro people were using bi to describe themselves. bi ppl were the “yes” side of “liking x gender equally” and aro/ace ppl were the “no” side of it.

also bi ppl that are exclusive of other mspec people?? like why are you so concerned about what word someone uses to scribe themself? “they mean the same thing so x label is useless” yeah have you ever heard of synonyms? also fellow trans bi’s that are exclusive of other bi+ people who use words besides “bisexual” are sooooo funny to me. like yes not only are you ignoring bi history in the way that the bisexual manifesto literally states that not all bisexual people use the word bisexual and that’s okay. but if your reasoning for using bi instead of pan (or pan instead of bi!) because one label is more or less transphobic than another is such a horrific erasure of trans history to push a cis narrative lol. nonbinary/genderfluid/genderqueer people (you know, people who are a part of the trans community) were some of the first people to start coining similar language to talk about their gender and sexuality experience. plenty of people identified as “bi-gender bi-sexual” or “pangender pansexual” or “omnigendered omnisexual” or “multi-gendered many-sexual” and even “agender asexual (and/or aromantic)”. there’s plenty of history of people using the same or similar words to talk about their sexuality as their gender so claiming that “cis people made up x label to be transphobic” is erasing trans history to push a cis narrative.

also the amount of cis bi people i’ve seen hate on other labels for “being transphobic” and then ignore transphobia in the cis bi community and push cissexist definitions of bisexuality is astounding. have you considered that maybe you’re using sexuality discourse as a way to sound like you actually care about trans rights without actually doing anything to make trans people feel welcome and rid queer spaces of transphobia?

How did you figure you were a they/them? If too personal, feel free to ignore this

Yeah, no problem, I'm opening to answering this!

To be honest, it took me a LONG while to figure it out, even though when looking back on it a lot of signs were there (I was in my late 20s when I sat down and slowly put the pieces together). The main one being that growing up I never really liked things associated with my assigned gender. I would also often wear clothes more commonly worn by the opposite gender. But aside from not having the vocabulary for or knowledge about what I was feeling at the time, I think the thing that kept me back the most from finding out that I was genderqueer was the fact that I never felt particularly dysphoric about my body or myself. I'm still pretty happy with the body that I happen to have been born with.

The "ah ha" moment was realizing that it's gender euphoria more than dysphoria that is an indicator of gender queerness. I realized that folks "mistaking" me for the opposite gender made me really happy. I got kind of excited that I could confuse people in that way. Online, using "they/them" for people you don't know is much more common, and when I saw people using those pronouns for me, that also made me feel happy.

Though, to be clear, I'm actually fine with people using he/him and she/her with me as well. I prefer they/them in general because it is the most ambiguous pronoun set, and I like the anonymity it affords me when online, but gendered pronouns are cool with me, too (I know that's not the case with everyone, but that is the case with me).

What I've found is that it's kind of like how cats are with boxes. I hated being forced into the box of my assigned gender. But if you just left the box out, along with boxes of other pronouns/genders, I might hop into all of them from time to time if left on my own. I think the importance is more if it's my decision to play in the boxes or not. Otherwise, I feel no need to really present as any specific gender. I'm not one for that kind of "performance" so to speak, I like just being me and comfortable in my own skin.

So in short, it's the combination of not really liking the box that I was placed in as a kid and feeling happy when people refer to me with gender neutral pronouns that made me realize that I was non-binary. Everyone is different, but those were the indicators for me.

Hope this helps anyone questioning or just interested! Thanks for the ask!

i saw you mention you're nonbinary and like i've wanted to ask someone cause i think im nonbinary but all my gnc friends are like binary trans i guess? and don't really have any answers for their discovery beyond like "i always really connected with girls and felt more like a girl than i did a guy" and it just leaves me questioning because i feel gross to think of myself as a boy and gross to think of myself as a girl. not sure where this is going, i guess what was the discovery process like that led you to recognize yourself as nonbinary?

hey that's a really awesome question actually!

my journey has been kind of back and forth- i identified as a binary trans guy for about. 7 years. and during that time i realized i was really, really unhappy. i was being seen as a man, or at least, not as a woman and it was making me happy, but i had to wear very traditionally masculine clothes, never wear makeup, never talk about being gay, etc. in order to pass

so, i'll kinda give you my two big moments where i realized i was nonbinary, so to speak!

1.) when i first found out what transgender was, it was thru a local lgbt pride alliance group. i learned what the word "Transgender" was there and it literally made my heart stop. i met a transfem person who kinda explained what being genderless was, but the term "nonbinary" wasn't in circulation at the time. i went home and started researching trans stuff and i found terms like "neutrois," "genderqueer" and "agender" and immediately vibed with those.

i identified as neutrois/agender/"other" gender for about 3 years. when i came out to my family, they didn't take it well at all. i told them to please stop calling me a girl, that i wasn't a girl, i wasn't a guy, and that i was just a person. they couldn't handle it, and i realized that most people couldn't, so i felt like i had to go full tilt into being a trans guy in order to be taken seriously. it kept me up at night because i knew deep down inside that i was different, and that this wasn't something that would just go away, and that there was nothing i could do change who i was. i didn't quite know who i was yet, all i knew is that i hated people dictating how i was to be referred to and if i was allowed to keep the beard i naturally grew due to being intersex or not

over the years i started realizing how miserable i was forcing myself to look/act like a cishet guy, because while i am partially a guy, i'm definitely not a cis or binary one

2.) 2020 rolled around and everyone was wearing masks constantly. i wanted some cloth ones around for safety, and my landlord's grandmother made me some. one of them was a cute flowery fabric, and i started wearing it around with my traditionally masc hair and clothing. someone approached me one day and went "sir? ma'am? ... i'm sorry, i can't tell." and i tell you what that gave me the most euphoria i've ever had in my life, more than being called "sir" by itself ever has

it made me remember that oh RIGHT i was my happiest when i was being referred to as something nonbinary adjacent. i still identify as genderqueer and use that term when i don't want to go into detail, or am around people who aren't very familiar with queer terms. most doctors and professionals seem to get the term genderqueer too.

i have DID and am a plural system, so there are alters in my system who still identify as neutrois, too! many of us have attachments to the terms that we used when we first came out. being a trans guy is an awesome experience and during the times in my life i've tried to stop identifying as one, it's made me really fucking sad. but that's okay!

i have several genders at once and that's rad. i'm glad you decided to ask this because coming back around to realize i'm nonbinary has made me the happiest i've been in a long time. i really am just a person !

i hope that helps!!!! thank you for asking this, i've really been wanting to talk about being nonbinary, genderqueer and "other" gender in general, and what it means to identify this way. thanks for stopping by, if you have any more questions feel free to ask = )

fic stats meme! 💌

Tagged by @thewolvesof1998 who did probably not realize what they're in for with my most eclectic fandom mix. This is bound to be interesting... (I'm going only with AO3 fic since...stats, ya know?)

rules: give us the links to your fic with the most hits, second most kudos, third most comments, fourth most bookmarks, fifth most words, and fic with the least words.

most hits: 13.354

The Truth Lies Beneath (15k M Fandom: Supernatural, Lie To Me): a Supernatural/ Lie to Me crossover with outsider!POV on Dean Winchester as a study in psychological basket-casery. Winchester meets law enforcement, law enforcement bites off more than they can chew.

second most kudos: 453

Surface Tension (3.2k T, Fandom: Hawaii-Five-O): Hawaii-Five-O McDanno fic, Aftermath/Coda fic from season 5, after McGarrett is taken by Wo Fat. Dealing with PTSD manly man style (i.e. not for a long time and then all at once).

third most comments: 33 threads

All-Nighter (11k M, Fandom: Mr. Queen): A 21st ct. South Korean womanizer star chef breaks his head, takes a spirit hike and lands in the body or a 19th ct. Joseon princess about to be queen. Obsessed with the king's concubines, getting back home to working indoor plumbing and trying to navigate literally cut-throat politics, they discover it's not quite as bad being married to a king than it first appears. Last part in a verse of three, soft, romantic, steamy bodyworship wrapped in DYI-therapy. Genderqueer hijinks ensue.

fourth most bookmarks: 73

Object Lessons (7.2k E, Fandom: Mr. Queen): see 'All-Nighter' -> first in a verse of three. Comedy porn, K-Drama style (like, yes it's porn, but it's also hilarious). Genderfuckery and loss of virginity go very well together, garnished with a dash of time travel.

fifth most words:

Wicked Game - Full Edition (28k E, Fandom: Supernatural): Podfic available (and very much recommended). Demon!Dean era Wincest, highly dubious consent, power struggle, Sam Winchester is a wicked witch, moral greyscale of the most delicious order, original lore-centric.

fic with the least words: excluding separate podfic posts, art/vid posts and FILKs

Battle Wounds (421 G, Fandom: Merlin BBC) hurt/comfort bingo square 'fighting' (I wrote this 2011 in Honolulu, waiting for the ball to drop on New Year's Eve, just under the wire for the bingo deadline, while everyone at home was already celebrating) - Merlin takes care of his king in the way only he knows how.

WOW, what an eclectic mix. And kinda surprising too, what came up and what didn't in the selection. Thanks for the tag, wolfie, that was fun!

No pressure tagging: @fourth-quartet, @queenklu, @cal-daisies-and-briars, @ariaste, @caranfindel, @ahhhnorealnamesallowed, @randomingoftherandomness

🧡💛 for the queer asks :3

How has the way you presented yourself (ex. Clothing, hairstyle, etc.) changed since you realized you were queer?

Oh, it has changed so much. I used to be super femme. Like, dresses, blouses, heels, jewelry. Don't get me wrong: I still love feminine clothing. It just has to be the right day for me to wear it, or else I'll have dysphoria. Now I dress very masc, but I would like it if I had nicer clothes than just jeans and t-shirts.

Who or what made you realize you were queer?

Well, I realized I was ace when I was 14 when everyone started talking about sexual attraction and fantasies involving real people, and I was just like: "Huh? That's a thing? I only fantasize about fictional characters getting together."

Then at 15 I realized I was biromantic. I had a friend at the time that I thought was so beautiful and I had the biggest crush on her. I realized I was thinking of girls the same way I was thinking of boys. I realized I could like both!

At around 18 I figured out I was genderqueer, but it's only been in more recent years that I've identified as transmasc/nonbinary. My partner and my trans friends helped me figure that one out.

From this ask game
