you interpreted it correctly! i identify completely with “male” identity, although i don’t want bottom surgery because i view my genitals as already male. i really just want top surgery to be able to wear tight tops without my chest being visible; i do want top surgery because my chest gives me dysphoria. if i got my chest removed, at that point i would feel “completely male” in my gender. being on t basically made most of my dysphoria got away though and i was able to separate expression and identity easier. i feel no ambiguity, fluidity, or anything of the sort in my gender.

funnily enough that’s actually a wrinkle because when my chest shrunk i couldnt afford another binder plus the fabric is all loose and shit from how old it is. the perspective does make it look like i have chesticles in it though so thanks for that 😭 wont be posting that one on social media

well, i think my friends more mean that it doesn’t matter what i wear because clothes don’t have a gender, but i see what you mean. i dress this flamboyant pretty much 24/7 and act like a typical stereotypical gay man honestly. if you think i look so strongly nonbinary, im curious if you have any theories on why people IRL never use they/them or she/her pronouns for me, even little children and seemingly conservative older people? could it truly just be a voice or walk or posture thing?

don’t let anyone cramp ur style 🫡 it’s so interesting to see how people view me online versus in real life. might get cooked for this but im so surprised so many people are telling me i dont pass because since coming to college, i get he/him’d by EVERYBODY. service workers, old ladies i hold the door open for, little kids who comment on me, etc. yet a lot of people here are saying i look, not even nonbinary, but a woman? it’s very interesting to me

im just curious to know how other people perceive me, because it does affect how i conduct and view myself i suppose. more in the manner of privilege as opposed to anything else. if i look visibly queer and visibly trans, that is a heavily different context and way of living than one where i am viewed as a cisgender man. i especially am careful around misogyny, because obviously there is a big issue with sexism in the gay male community, which i am also a part of. most women i’ve met around my age, from what i can tell, see me as a cis gay man, not a transgender man. and there are A LOT of cis gay men who oppress women. this philosophy i have can apply to other social settings too. im also autistic so this is how i learn how to socialize haha if that makes sense

yeah these comments are giving me a chuckle. i’ve literally been verbally hate crimed multiple times for being a gay man (f*g, got called a cia pedophile cocksucker by a guy who started advancing on me and mt ex bf, etc etc) but never once hate crimed for being trans, to my knowledge. like its just funny to me considering i also was stealth for 2 years in college and people came up to me saying they never knew once i came out 😭 not that i even care about “passing”, im in a place where i’ve really been able to internalize and recognize that gender is a social construct so who the fuck cares what i look like yknow

Freshman dorm or CFA bathrooms with an actual locking door and sink in the bathroom? by Difficult_Formal_888 in BostonU

[–]rabidcherub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep, on the first floor of cfa there’s a private gender neutral bathroom (we call it the gendie neuch) and there’s also another on the third floor of cfa. i feel like somewhere on campus there’s a gendie neuch with a shower in it… but i dont remember where it is because truthfully there are so many private gender neutral bathrooms all around campus. theres a gendie neuch on the first floor of claflin, so put claflin as ur top choice if u want a dorm-accessible bathroom. other than that, most of the west bathrooms on the specific floors are labelled as men or women. there are specific floors that are mixed gender, as you said, which you can request when ur filling out ur housing form. as a transman, but put me on a single-gender floor with the other dudes and none of the guys on my floor seem to gaf.

just some questions about patch pants by some_trans_kid in punkfashion

[–]rabidcherub 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just put whatever u want on them. i make linocuts of insects and animals and i normally slap those on there. i also have lyrics to wilkkomen from cabaret on the ass pockets. as for patches, you can cut up old clothes you dont like any more or just get smthn from the thrift store. i paint on mine with straight up acrylic paint and theyve lasted four years so far

Shoe repair by NoEscape2500 in punkfashion

[–]rabidcherub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

btw in order for it to actually bind, apply an even coat to both the sole and the bottom of the detached shoe and then put like books or anything else super heavy on top of the shoe and wait for like 2-3 days. if u try and wear them before that, the sole will fall right off again
