~semi-~ Serious question, Idon’t get it. Most of us get why the hegemonic gender system is stupid, why subscribe to the binary role you were assigned? Also, why do straight people exist? Maybe it’s just me but I like to look and feel like my own perception of what is attractive.

I'm trans myself but I think some people just end up being cis. And that's OK. We shouldn't judge them for it...all that much...

No urge to transition to anything other than my assigned gender. I might've experimented with skirts since they seem comfier but won't for fear of transphobia.

I'm cis for the same reason someone would be binary trans, except I think the gender I was assigned happens to be correct.

EDIT: oh it's a bit

[–] QueerCommie@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's not fully a bit, I am interested in how people would actually answer it.

[–] SexbearLmao@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 8 months ago

Fair enough, my answer is sincere for that it's worth.

You're expected to "explain" yourself somehow and I learned the words and phrases about heteronormativity and cisgender(ness?) before anything else. I do wonder what labels I would have taken if non-binary were a term I was taught alongside (and with the same "matter of fact"ness as) masculine/feminine, boy/girl, male/female though.

I already have like eleven boy clothes. I can hardly muster the necessary space for clean and used storage, washing, and drying, the logistical expertise, the time of day, week, or year, nor the necessary enthusiasm to acquire a girl clothe on top of that

I am simply, and always have been, a cissy

[–] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

Because sex is hot and I like it.
