Androgyny

Post Reply New Topic

When I was a child and teen, it was possible to think I'm a boy. Sometimes people asked me hey guy, can you tell me.... I am tall and well-built (not overweight!) and my voice is deep. My motions are far away from cat motions.
Now there's no way to mistake, because my body is very X-shaped. My face is not feminine, it's neutral (it's great, because it makes me photogenic). I can't pretend I'm a boy, but I can pretend transsex

Women clothes look on me like younger sister's clothes. I don't like shiny women clothes. I often buy men clothes from Bundeswehr, they're simple and my size. I love emo style for men, because I can buy longer clothes and look feminine enough. I'm waiting for men dresses. Now I wear skirts, because it's easier than hunting long trousers.

I don't feel any gender. I'm just myself. I don't want to be man or woman.

i've always been effeminate. even in the army. that made me real popular there

Don't know. I don't accept the stereotyped male role, e.g. taking the lead, being the breadwinner, pretending to have no fears. In fact I have a vague prejudice against men in general (apart from myself). Haven't got a lot of body hair and wouldn't want to change that because I think it's ugly. Not gay but find people who are kind of reassuring.

Did this thing called the Bem Sex Role Inventory recently online -> You scored 71.667 out of 100 masculine points, 45.833 out of 100 feminine points, and 53.333 out of 100 androgynous (neutral) points.

I'm starting to think that you should write a memoir of your experiences in the army. It could become a bestseller.

thanx, but more likely it would rapidly become just another abject denizen of the rock bottom remainders, along with such noble titles as "Heather has two daddies" and "Who moved my asparagus?"

i'd read it.

anyway, most of gender is a social construct. so it would make sense that people who can't assimilate "properly" would be somewhat androgynous.

i always felt like i was trying to impersonate a girl rather than actually being one.

I'm mentally and emotionally androgynous, but happen to be very female looking (though I put little to no effort forward to do so).
