Everyone is Mad At Me for Being Bad
~~cis women are majestic and intimidatingIt puts me in this state of reverence, like I forget I have corporeal form because how could I exist around someone with such a strong vibration~~
As someone who is male presenting, I feel fundamentally creepy approaching women. Like, as a guy, I don't feel like I can, doing so will label me as a creep
I thought I was describing gender envy and my sort of freeze response in social situations, but I made people mad
I wouldn't tell a Hexbearian to "grow up" or that you think "like a teenager". So it's confusing to be called out in that way, I guess. I thought talking about this stuff with other queer people would be constructive, but like some of you said, I have reflecting to do.
Next time you break it to someone that their Catholic upbringing has affected them, I'd ask you to be a bit friendlier as you drive my jaw into the curb. Thanks!
no
cis women do not have a special magical energy. Sorry if this is harsh, but approaching a woman like they're a regular person won't make you seem like a creep, but thinking about them like this definitely will
Riiiight. Cis women, specifically, have an intangible "energy", and of course before even approaching them, you know that they are in fact cis, you can tell , can't we all? This fact elevates them to such a degree that you can't bring yourself debase their (cis) "feminine energy" with your meager presence.
I mean this with all the love in the world. Grow the fuck up.
This was a familiar feeling when I was much younger and also didn't know I was a woman. As someone who is now a proper adult and a woman, I do not get the feeling anymore lol
Sometimes, a particularly breathtakingly beautiful person - man or woman or enby or elsewise - may knock me off my proverbial feet. But I don't stumble so much over my words or turn clumsy or whatever. I guess it's part confidence and self assurance that comes from just living longer authentically and partly, I've met a lot of people and even the pretty have to do stuff like pick their noses or poop lol
They're people just like you and me. I can see how heteronormative social coding would make that sort of, "approaching someone" difficult but also, women are just people Idk. I can remember thinking this when I was like 12, but all the mystique is not real and invented, probably by straight neurotypicals or something.
yeah thought like this until i turned 16 cause i went to all boys catholic institutions and didn't make any real girl friends until then lol
It's cool when you actually talk to women and find out "waow just like me fr fr!" honestly. One of the few cool parts of my upbringing...
I get that they're people, the issue is that I'm not fully people. I look at them and I look at me.

It's like, can I just burst into flames and then look like you instead? Please? How do I look like you? How do I be someone who is pretty and nice and shops with her girlfriends?The social coding is precisely my problem, I don't know how to approach anyone because I'm in-be-fucking-tween. I feel pressured to approach situations as a guy because that's how people see me. Women don't know I'm nonbinary when I walk up to them. When I do get to drop my Man Impression?
I'm tired. Maybe I should take a breather. Come back to Hexbear when I turn 13.
You're supposed to be at least 13 to use hexbear iirc =)
Women be shopping, uh it would be pretty rad if you could just burst into flames and then look like beautiful cis woman I guess. I'm kind of weird I guess because I thought transition kinda rules.
I dunno how the social signaling works with this, too much autism. I have read tell of women being able to tell sort-of-subconsciously that the egg is an egg because they're effusive and dorky and such, but idrk how it works. Not doing a man impression is awesome though
Also sorry if I'm being weird or anything today, stupid, I'm goin off a prescription and my mind is kinda funny.
