After I discovered trans people exist I realized I never really identified with being a “boy.” I was a pretty gender non-conforming child. I liked certain things about myself “cis” and in trying “fem” things I liked them too. By default I tend to use they/them pronouns for others regardless. I feel gay for people regardless of gender (pan, leaning “fem”). IMO none of this matters because gender is a social construct and I support its abolition. I’ve encountered many specific gender terms online, but honestly, labels are silly; “a rose smells sweet regardless of what you call it.” My advice would be just experiment with expression and don’t care about labels bc fuck gender. Y’all binists are valid and all, but it doesn’t do much to undermine the patriarchal gender system.
