Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.
Filling out a disability application and it asks for your fucking agab. Quick, why?
I had half a mind to do it up wrong but egh.
I look at this shit and I think of
tbh. You were so right, about everything, please come back!!!! We still need you, sad as it is!!!
It asks later: What gender do you identify as? The options are
woman or girl
man or boy
transgender woman or girl
transgender man or boy
gender non-binary
do not know/won't say
Huh...
Yes but if you looked at my name vs agab you might assume I'm a binary trans woman, lol. They could have just left the fucking agab question out.
I meant like, why ask for both agab and woman or trans woman. If I'm amab, and a woman...
Just seems silly
Ohhhh yeah that is pretty silly tbh. Maybe for out vs stealth? Goofyass government tho.
Honestly I thought that's what you were pointing out.
How would they know you are a woman if you didn't tell them? The first question only asks for AGAB. So how would someone that has never met you know if you were trans and therefore shouldn't be given assistance because fuck you. I assume this is why they are asking. Otherwise it doesn't make sense to me.
Edit: I should go to bed, it's getting late, and I can feel it, my brain is getting mushy. Writing badly/weirdly.
Why would you not ask for agab, then have the options for gender be like:
If someone says amab, and checks woman, you know they're a trans woman. Because their agab doesn't match their stated gender. I don't know, it just feels weird to me. Is that not what Ash's point was? ~~that I was just saying out loud because idk how to make interesting comments I guess~~
Mushy brain can't handle this.
eepy!
Worst thing is, it's when I'm eepy/mushy that I write more.
I hate the “woman, man, trans woman, trans man” thing so much
like yes, I’m trans, and my gender is woman. I swear when I finally muster up the courage to stop boymoding I’m just gonna answer “woman” for this
I think that's what most people do, lile trans guys would just answer "man". I put "Gender Non Binary" because it's closest to
