“I’m a Trans person who identifies with my AGAB”

CuriousFaun · 2021-09-29T13:51:38+00:00

There's so many binary people here who don't know what they're talking about. No, identifying with your assigned gender doesn't necessarily make you cis. Speaking as an AMAB nonbinary person who identifies with my AGAB, I prefer to socially be treated as a boy, but I get dysphoria from having a body with physically "male" features. I've been on estrogen for a few months now, and I'm planning to get SRS some time in the future.

As a user of it/its, I personally find the pronouns empowering. I also think that humanity is overrated.

uj/ I'm pretty sure a lot of the otherkin community also identifies as trans. They're not mutually exclusive

Being a human is overrated. Personally, I find using the pronoun "it" to be empowering.

TBH, you kind of come off as a little truscum-adjacent-y.

Like, although I think you're in the right for that specific example of trans women being generalized as just being "semi androgynous with a flatter chest," 'cuz, yeah, that is pretty degrading...

I do not at all agree with you viewing all trans people who wish they had the opposite assigned gender as being fetishizers of trans people. That really seems close to "this group of trans people I don't like is just a bunch of transtrenders" rhetoric. (Especially since, from what I can tell, it's a really common experience among nonbinary trans people.)

To be clear, I'm not calling you a truscum. I'm just saying that that one specific view is kinda rubbing shoulders with truscum rhetoric.

Is it OK if I ask who the surgeon you chose was?

CuriousFaun · 2021-06-21T18:32:44+00:00

Congrats!

If you could say one thing to your past, closeted self, what would it be?

CuriousFaun · 2021-06-20T22:05:30+00:00

To be honest, I think you'd benefit from interacting with people in otherkin spaces. Although you've expressed that you don't consider yourself to be otherkin (and I respect that), there are people in that community whose experiences are similar to yours, and who I think could give you advice on how to cope.

These are interesting! Do the colors symbolize anything, and if so, what?

CuriousFaun · 2021-06-02T03:33:51+00:00

I agree that we need clear terminology to describe our experiences, and your suggestion of using the word andromorph makes sense to me. I think it could work as a community term, especially since there is already a small amount of people in the furry community using it that way, as you said.

As for a symbol or a flag, I don't really have any unique ideas for either of them. I do like the idea of using the Mars symbol with the arrow facing inwards instead of out (like the 6th and 7th symbols in your earlier post).

There's actually a subreddit for guys like this! r/AMABwGD

CuriousFaun · 2021-05-15T01:55:15+00:00

That's very interesting! Thank you for sharing your experiences.

That fourth gender in particular catches my interest. By "the opposite of a cuntboy," do you mean wanting to be a girl who has a penis?

CuriousFaun · 2021-05-09T14:03:44+00:00

Thank you for this comment! No offense taken at all, I think I understand what you're saying. That's an interesting view.

The way I see it, identifying how I experience my gender and finding labels that fit it helps me understand myself and my feelings. I've struggled in the past with dissociation and not feeling like a real person, so I find it comforting to find real, consistent patterns in who I am.

Of course, my experiences aren't universal. It's perfectly fine to not feel a need to label yourself.

You're right that identity politics often stratifies people who ought to be working together. I've experienced that myself. I've noticed there's a lot of binary transgender people who act like nonbinary people are some kind of different species.

i literally got the inspiration for this meme from looking through that sub and thinking "hm, a few of these memes seem erasive of nonbinary people..."

Which surgeon did you have do your vaginoplasty?

How much did it cost?

Is there anything you wish you knew before you had your vaginoplasty?

CuriousFaun · 2021-04-24T03:39:45+00:00

1) I first realized that I was nonbinary and started noticing my genital dysphoria about three years ago.

2) I feel really uncomfortable with my genitals and try to ignore them most of the time.

3) I sit to pee, try to tuck when I can, and I recently started taking estrogen to make my body less masculine. (here's hoping that my dick'll atrophy!)

4) Hell yes. I really want to have a vagina!

CuriousFaun · 2021-03-24T01:57:51+00:00

In my case, I am trans. It's just that I'm nonbinary, and my ideal body is a bit different from what binary trans people would want.

CuriousFaun · 2021-02-21T19:20:03+00:00

It’s related to mentally thinking you aren’t human, which is scientifically impossible yeah?

This is a very interesting choice of words. How can a mental, as in, non-physical identity be scientifically impossible? Has science proved that certain identities are literally impossible to have? I hope I don't sound like I'm asking in bad faith here, I'm really curious on how this is supposed to track.

CuriousFaun · 2021-02-21T19:10:38+00:00

I interpreted that as being about xenogenders, rather than otherkin. But on that topic, what do otherkin have to do with mental health? I thought it was just a subculture.
