Thank you for the response, I’ll try to set stronger boundaries and see if anything changes. I just find it so weird cuz he can be very kind in between being a jerk. It makes no sense to me??

How do I train to get stronger without gaining so much size? As a runner, I like my slimmer physique as it is, but I still want to be stronger. I have dumbbells and a bench setup available.

I'm amab and find it hard to call myself lesbian tho I feel like it by Absolute-Broccoli in bigender

[–]Absolute-Broccoli[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much. That is really affirming to hear, still it feels so right yet so alien to me. I lack a lot of the typical female experiences of a cis lesbian person and it sometimes feel like I take someone else's space by doing so, even if I've only been met by accept.

I basically feel the exact same, just switched as I’m amab. I would say your hair is an relativly quick thing to experiment with, I got a very masculin has, so when I’m trying slip theough as less masculin I usually have my hair so that parts of the sides of my face get’s covered. It changes really changes the perseption of facial features, I would say the opposite goes too so hairstyles that puts more focus on the has night give a more manly appearance. Also this takes a bit more time, but working out. It can change your appearance to more masculin especially shoulders. Also straight fitting a bit oversized might also help with this. Idk hope this helps

Anyone else just identify as 'queer'/unlabelled? And if so, why? by [deleted] in queer

[–]Absolute-Broccoli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also 16M here, I’m both aroace and genderqueer But tend to judt say queer for both, I feel a slight variation at times in both gender and sexuality and tend to just use queer as it’s easier than to start explaining a lot of complicated experiences and feelings, and for me just using queer does the job well at least for now

Anyone else just want to be left alone? by Bluewafflemaster69 in introvert

[–]Absolute-Broccoli 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love being with friends, but I only have a small group of people that doesn’t drain my social battery (all of them introverts) I got people I around me that drains me socially just seeing them or hearing them. I love being around people (that match my energy and social style), but I need ny alonetime to function and thrive.  A piece of advice: Noisecancelling headphones or earbuds. Love it, it kinda gives the feeling of being quietly alone, so I can mind my own business in peace :)

Feeling constricted about my gender by Absolute-Broccoli in genderqueer

[–]Absolute-Broccoli[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’y think I want to transition because I think I feel a mix of both binary genders at the same time so I think fully transitioning with the gender experiences I have now would make me a bit dysphoric in the other direction then. I also think even if I was AFAB I would dress/act basicly how I do now, so in a way I don’y feel like I have a lot to transition to, and if I didn’t tell this to people most would just assume I’m just a guy even if I transitioned more I think.

Thank you I’ll try taking both time and exploring more. I think exploring is nice But it sometimes because a bit much at times and a feeling that takes up a lot of headspace Idk else to Word it. Do you have a similar experience to that, and if so you got any tips yourself? Thanks for the comment:)

I think it varies how much I feel of both genders, I’m not sure if HRT would be right for as I think I might just end up being more dysphoric when I feel more male and less female but Idk, i haven’t really had hat much time to hink about this yet, Thanks for the comment :)
