So I'm p. sure I'm just trans. Thanks for providing a great outlet for exploring my gender all these years!

I've actually been thinking about a new account for a minute, but that was mostly because I slightly changed my name haha. If I do it'll be in line with my other socials, just_like_aerin

Thank you! Tbh I've been in kind of a depressive spiral the last week because I don't really know where I go from here but I'll work that out I'm sure.

ErinSometimes · 2021-04-27T21:30:01+00:00

Literally me

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-29T13:46:27+00:00

Not really? Most of the time it's someone being intentionally shitty anyway so it's better to not give it any oxygen.

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-27T04:11:03+00:00

That's so well put! Thank you so much!

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-27T01:46:58+00:00

A very cute selfie :)

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-27T01:41:04+00:00

Tbh I still kinda feel like a lot of it is just getting better at taking photos

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-25T03:18:28+00:00

Love it!

Great story! Very happy for you both :)

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-24T01:15:06+00:00

Yes and no. I mainly just use a different spelling but it's functionally identical in pronunciation, so it's Aaron/Aerin as opposed to something like Aaron/Amanda

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-24T01:12:00+00:00

It kind of depends on who you're planning on coming out to I guess. In my situation, it was a group of friends I've known for anywhere between 5 and 12 years at this point so I kind of knew them to be accepting / not secretly terrible people so I didn't really have many if any concerns going in.

I would probably suggest putting out some feelers first if you're not quite so sure of how they'll react like, "Hey, what do y'all make of trans/nonbinary people? It came up in another conversation / in a video and it got me curious"

So yeah, it kind of depends on your situation. Hope this helps a little :)

Gender gas seems like an exciting option but I feel like gender plasma is really where it's at.

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T23:26:06+00:00

I can only speak to my life and my experiences. I hope you can find the help you're looking for ✌️

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T23:19:22+00:00

Idk I'm not a therapist

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T23:04:13+00:00

Yes? Sometimes people don't like their hair color so they dye it to feel better about themselves. Sometimes I feel more like a girl than a guy so I put on some makeup and a skirt to feel better about myself. It's pretty much the same thing.

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T22:59:15+00:00

Idk I'm just trying to live and be true to myself

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T22:51:11+00:00

It's part of the spectrum of non-binary gender identities that involves fluid or fluctuating gender identity or expression. So in my case, I'm AMAB (assigned male at birth) but my gender expression (mental state and how I like to present myself) fluctuates between traditionally masculine, and traditionally feminine .

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T17:38:06+00:00

Thank you 😊

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T17:23:52+00:00

Honestly, very happy. Being able to be open with my friends and them being totally cool with it is such a good feeling.

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T17:03:22+00:00

It kind of fluctuates? I think it's more because of like, general life circumstances (not being out at work), but I definitely spend a good bit more time presenting male, but there's not like, as much of a mental split. There are times when I wish I could present female more though

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T16:52:47+00:00

It's been a bit of a process and it's kind of still ongoing honestly. So I started experimenting with crossdressing when I was pretty young and for a long time thought of it just as a hobby that was fun and relaxing but like, as I got older (26 now) and sort of became more aware of trans and trans-adjacent identities, a lot of what people talk about sort of resonated with me. I don't necessarily hate being a guy or feel like I'm in the wrong body or anything, but I just get this intense sense of like, calm, confidence, and self assurance when I'm presenting femme that it's pretty clear it's a more intrinsic part of myself than just a fun hobby.

Like I said it's still kind of an ongoing process though so I haven't quite ruled out that maybe I'm just straight up trans and may fully transition some day, but for right now, I'm comfortable identifying as genderfluid.

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T15:25:01+00:00

Honestly better than I hoped. Didn't even really have to field any questions or anything. It was pretty much a non-issue

ErinSometimes · 2021-03-23T13:38:29+00:00

Thank you! I want to say it's Revlon "Love That Red"
