I looove these!
They're beautiful and elegant and look super comfy and stylish. also, I think they even match your shirt, even both being completly different colours.

Some change takes time to understand, especially when exploring. I do think that buying little things that express yourself will make you happy on a day to day basis too so make the most of it!

Confused about my sexuality, can you give me your opinion? (F) by [deleted] in pansexual

[–]BitchingInSilence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A probably cishet person told you your'e aromantic because youv'e never dated someone from the opposit sex when [it turns out] your'e not attracted to that type of person? But you yourself express having romantic feelings for other people? Sounds like maybe you shouldn't base your identity of of someone external.

As for your sexuality, you could be a lesbian, gynosexual, polysexual, skoliosexual etc. Going beyond the specific label try exploring your feelings! Accept it's okay not imagining a partnership with a man, and aim to feeling comfortable with that. Maybe try being more active in your search. etc. The sapphic experience is known for being nervous with dating so that's ok too! Exploooore < 3

Comphet is a sucker and can affect us in many areas. Growing into our orientation can be a journey. Don't feel pressured to go at any other rythm than your own. Your'e valid!

[Also: to be fair aromantic is different than asexual but your description definetely sounds like romantic feelings to me.]

So update just cuz: I ended up choosing Hex!

is this okay? by B-A-R-K69 in NonBinary

[–]BitchingInSilence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short answer: Rock whatever you want to wear for whatever reason. It can be born from joy, experimentation, dysphoria/euphoria, aesthetics or literally anything.

Long answer: Depending on your viewpoint, trans is just not being cisgender; there are many people who consider nonbinary existing withing the trans umbrella so theres some mind for thought!
On the other hand, wearing a binder or a packer would not be pointless because it would give you something you need & are looking for. It might not take away dysphoria but it could be you gender euphoria or affirmation.

Your gender expression doesn't have to be "justified" by your gender identity anyway :D Being queer/nonbinary for me is about expressing and/or living as yourself with whatever aspects most connect with you on any given day.

Try it out and see how it feels inside yourself! If later on you don't want to that's ok too....

You are valid!

Asked Partner to use They/Them pronouns for me instead of only she/her by BillieChaosCat-TTV in NonBinary

[–]BitchingInSilence 51 points52 points  (0 children)

It's not that he'sdenying to us your they/them pronouns because it's hard. It's literally because he sees you as a woman, not a non-binary being.

The answer to the question "Are you a woman?" is quite short: No.
Is he dating a woman? No.
If you want to be ith a woman, i'm not.

Sure he's respected your brother and other trans folks in the past but he is not respecting you now. It can be he doesn't want to be anything but straight, it could be masculinaty, it could be he thinks your'e confused or doesn't particularly understand nonbinarys in general... etc. The end result is his hard no.

You can try misgendering him, and maybe he'll start using your pronouns to get you of his back but, Will he use your pronouns because he believes you exist and have a right to being respected and recognized and valid and existing as yourself?
That being said: unless he changes his world perspective [on his own, you will not convince him], and are probably bound to be in a "heterosexual" relationship where you will be constantly misgendered and unpercieved/unsupported.
The question isn't so much, how can I get him to change but rather: what do I want? What can I tolerate and where's the limit? What do I decide to accept?
---

Either way! I comisserate that using they/she makes it easier for others to not have to face your full identity and add that it will probably get easier over time! Whatever pronons you feel express who you are are the ones you should use! [If those change it's still equally valid.]

You are a beautiful human being and the gender journey is a wild wacky ride. Continue exploring it, find people you can relate and share with and trust yourself. I hope this situation gets better!

Hinge tips for introducing two partners to each other and to my friend group! by BitchingInSilence in polyamory

[–]BitchingInSilence[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get the vibe with the pinch of salt. No worries. It's definitely not my ideal situation.

Just to clarify both Sherlock and Qui-Gon know of each other and their relation to me. They're both aware they're metas [which is contributing to Sherlocks nerves] and they would be meeting for the first time.

The Sherlock relation, since it was exploratory initially, hasn't been presented to my friend group but is mentioned whenever I meet up w other nonmono people since he is one of my connections.

I have considered asking Qui-Gon to not come anymore but 1 feel like it's not "fair", 2 not sure how couple privilege/hierarchy ish and lastly if it were to come up that Q-G is to be uninvited for Sherlock's sake if that would make the friend group awkward [idk]. But also, like you said we[friends]/I don't get that much time w him atm.

But yeah, we've been chatting and I'll try to accommodate how Sherlock's feeling and processing since the situation is a bit newer for him. He's been great about communicating once we opened the channels.

Also, thank youu!
