Cis man.
Most of my friends are queer, so I'm usually the outlier on that regard.
Also I wandered in here from browsing "all" so I'm arguably not in the community at all.
welcome to the party we hope you enjoy your stay :D
Right now it's something like this:
ehem
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
That fits snugly into the "???" Category
Binary trans woman? Binary feels like the closest fit, but at the same time, so much of gender is a construct, and I think I would probably have a different relationship with my gender identity if I was 20 years younger than I am, and grew up with more nuanced representation of gender.
Definitely still figuring that out. All I know for sure is that there is some degree of fem in it.
Even though it makes no sense at all, it does feel like the clock is ticking sometimes. That I need to hurry up and figure it out.
It's okay and normal to not be 100% sure and to even change your mind entirely later. The important thing is you feel you have the agency to be whatever version of yourself feels right in the moment đ
Thanks for your kind words!
I, myself am perfectly okay with who I am and my evolving identity (all of us are just PokĂŠmon after all).
There's this anxiety that stems from never being entirely sure how your environment is going to react that is causing this to be a more personal journey for me. Somehow it feels like having a greater degree of certainty is going to make actually being who I am to the rest of the world a lot easier. Confidence is key I guess.
Having had some bad experiences being open about my feelings definitely doesn't help either. So until the need to do otherwise arises, I'll probably just be honest with myself and not entirely with my surroundings.
In the meantime I'm having lots of fun stealthily experimenting with everything not tied to the stereotypical masculine identity. And I'll continue doing so until I feel the need to make those elements part of my public identity.
Trans man
Cis hetero.
I tend to just lurk because this isn't a space for me, but it's a good way to keep connected to the community outside of my local area, and stay aware of ongoing social changes and such.
This is also me.
Genderfluid trans enby, i like he/she/they/any.
My body is base model femme but my brain is rather teenage boy.
Toph from Avatar seems to share my gender, lol
dialup noises
Trans femme, leaning towards enby?
I want to see how I feel on HRT but it feels so far away... very much want to move away from my current state before starting to "really" transition.
Way to relatable. Was thinking I'd like to build up some more savings, so I don't have to worry as much about finances. But thinking maybe I should just try.
There's always going low dose and ramping it up when you leave. Low dose is more gradual and less people will notice as quickly, and you may get some of the mental health benefits from it.
Idk
I'll put you under "???"
cis man
Trans femme / A-gender gurl here to assist your data!
female womanly woman womyn so binary im beeping and booping
Trans or cis
trans đ¤
Welcome! Ultimately transphobia is a cis problem, so it really helps when cis folks educate themselves and advocate to create change. Thank you!
EDIT: any cis ally looking to learn more, I found the Gender Dysphoria Bible a helpful resource.
Binary trans woman, here đŤĄđłď¸ââ§ď¸
Nonbinary trans femme
Nonbinary transfemmeâusing precise terminology for something I consider quite vague. I have a hard time calling myself a woman, but that's essentially where I'm headed. Maybe demigirl.
Cis man. Just stating that makes me feel boring
Cis man
Cis woman representing.
In case anyone cares, I don't care about my own gender identity. I identify as a cis woman because it's easy for me and I don't experience any disphoria or offense no matter how people gender me. Here to support trans and nonbinary people.
I'm in this comment! I'm also a cis lady who doesn't have any gender dysphagia. Also here to support all my LGBTQ+ humans!
So I guess we're twinning now! <3
Male since birth. (Is that what Cis means?)
But strongly of the opinion that whatever it is should only matter to me and whoever vitally needs to know it for providing effective health care.
Anything else should be "fill in the blanks with whatever you like and not make it a big deal."
Yes, that's what cis means. You're okay being the gender usually associated with your sex.

Trans girl
Maybe trans woman? I just learned of the term demigirl from these comments and that seems to fit a little better. Some flavor of girl/femme đ
transfem girlypop cute pink yes please
Genderflux demigirl: I fluctuate between agender and girl. I never want to be called a man or its adjacent terms ever again, but I also don't want to be beholden by the confines of "woman." "Girl" is nice, though. I like being girly.
In other words, varying degrees of girl, but never man. To anyone to whom it may be too complicated, non-binary.
Didn't know there was gonna be a chart :o Kinda wanna buff up that enby slice but the transfem green is pretty close to my colour soooo...
Femby? đ
I'm gonna make another one don't worry
Good that c/trans has an official chart crab :D
I'm a trans woman.
Probably late but freshly cracked trans girl here!
Welcome! đĽłď¸đłď¸ââ§ď¸ď¸ đď¸â¤ď¸đď¸â¤ď¸đď¸
Started as non-binary / bigender trans-fem, but now just Demigirl / trans-fem.
Idgaf - i don't give a fuck, I'm me
She/they trans fem trans girl/woman
Cisco man
Bros lathered from head to toe in Cisco. Don't let him outside in the summer
Oops. No, sorry, I just identify as a switch.
At the moment I consider myself a trans girl but it may turn out that I'm some kind of demigirl as I explore my gender identity more.
What is a demigirl please ?
Why not, special occasion why not bring out the micro label? Trans non-binary Genderfaun ( fluid between agender and masc but never femme).
Me is trans demigirl catgirl :3
Do I categorize you as trans woman or nonbinary trans feminine on the graph?
Either tbh, I use she/they
Transfem demigirl femboy (technically magigirl, but more people know the term demigirl so I just use that)
Agender trans-neutral
Trans masc, not sure where on the spectrum of binary/non-binary
Trans girl đĽ°ď¸đłď¸ââ§ď¸ď¸đď¸
trans girl, the trans part is important to me :3
and I also like being a bunnydemon! :D
Nonbinary (AMAB)
Yes
I generally go with trans woman/girl (I refuse to acknowledge that I'm getting older), but mostly because I feel like that broad classification covers a fair amount of what other people would classify as demigirl or transfemme enby. Admittedly I also take the view that gender can be described as a zone of 3-d grid, with axes "femme", "masc" and "other" (although what "other" really is depends on the individual in question), and my own goes 80-90 femme, ~10 masc, 20-30 other (each out of 100)
Male, I'm just here to observe
I assume you mean cis man?
Yes
It's enby, and definitely not solid.
Now, it almost never feels fluid. I spend weeks at a time thinking "Yeah, I feel I'm mostly a man, breaking out of norms just makes me feel free, and I wanna be strong like all those enbies I admire". And then one month later I see myself equally genuinely thinking "I'm a trans fem~ish, and I wish I could be pretty like all those women I admire."
And it's like I don't emotionally "remember" the other state. Each state is my entire reality while in it.
But consciously, I remember having been through this, not just now with gender, but some years ago with sexuality as well.
So yeah. It's a little bit of everything, all of the time.
I'm just a standard issue guy; always have been. Was raised conservative and flipped to progressive as an adult.
I'm here out of benevolent curiosity. I want to know how to interact with trans folks respectfully. I believe that learning about their thoughts and experiences will foster a perspective that makes it easier to understand how to do that.
feel free to DM me any burning questions you have, btw - I'm happy to walk through anything!
Strong woman
Cis or trans
Transfem - Non Binary
Agender transfem, I think mostly fits me, but I'm still coming to terms with the transfem part (especially since I live in the UK đ )
I am a trans woman that is just trying to "blend in" if you know what I mean.
But if it comes up in conversation and i'm comfortable enough I may or may not reveal the fact that I'm trans.
I'm generally okay with and at ease with my birth gender, though I would definitely say that my inner self isn't inherently gendered and more picked up the qualities of my birth gender along the way but isn't inextricably linked to it.
I tend to think of it like how light when absorbed and reemitted takes on the frequency of the thing which absorbed it, but that coloring of the light isn't really describing the original nature or quality of the light so much as the journey it took and what was picked up along the way.
So cis gendered but not particularly committed to my gender one way or another. Would rank a host of other qualities above my gender in how important it is to my identity.
I'm AroAce-Agender, as well as Isogender. Though I also do say I'm a femboy (don't ask how one can be a femboy without a gender, it's complicated).
I'm a trans woman; I don't tend to comment much, but I am here :)
Non-binary, i can't be arsed to try to find a more specific label.
Female or possibly demi-girl. The distinction doesn't make any practical difference to me, so I usually just go by female. I'm trans if that makes a difference in your graph.
I'm a cis man. I only watch this community because I feel for y'all and understand the discrimination you're going through.
I'm autistic and severely ADHD. It's hard to live when everyone hates you for just being you. So while I'm not an egg or anything I take comfort in being around others who know how it feels to be rejected and fought against.
Transfem fairly binary
Nebulous
I guess I'm a trans tomboy? I'm new to all this so I don't have the lingo down yet. I have two ex-wives and I think I want an ex-husband too. But it'll have to wait. I recently realized I need someone who sees me as a woman and that's likely not happening anytime soon. Right now it feels like I want to wait until after bottom surgery. It'll be a long wait, but I've decided not to let old hang ups and preconceived notions dictate my life any longer so it might change if I meet the right person. I'm not sweating it, though.
I kinda wish I knew and I kinda don't. It seems like it changes every couple days or weeks.
Binary trans woman.
I reach for agender/neutrois. I interpret it under the non-binary umbrella and use that too. Though I also still consider myself 'transfem', or at least 'transfem-ish'.
How do I know?
If you had asked me a year ago what my gender identity was, my answer would have been rather different than if you asked me now. I tend to be skeptical that I have the appropriate epistemic vantage point to have a certain answer to such a question. I'm not even sure there is such a thing as a persistent, innate, or essential gender identity.
Philosophical problems aside, assuming this is a census or something, I would be considered a trans woman.
Sometimes I feel like I know... then I realize I'm not completely sure. 𤡠Somewhere between she and they, I think.
Woman probably. IDK I'm kinda just vibing it out from my brain.
Also this guy
I am also that guy đ
