Yesterday I updated my pronouns from she/they/any pronoun to they/she/any pronoun. Something deep inside me feels like that order fits better. “They” feels more right than “she”.

When I joined, my bio started “Cis woman”. Then “I’m a woman… I think” for a year or so. As of yesterday it starts “Woman or woman-like substance”.

Anyone have any tips? Tricks? Things that’ll help me figure out if this is the direction I really need to go? I feel kinda lost here. (and a smidge of imposter syndrome)

    Not to be silly, but for me, it was Donatello the Ninja Turtle. I admired his compassion and curiosity. It was a gentler sort of masculinity that I felt was something worth emulating, rather than more toxic representations that are pervasive on that front

    I just wanted to tell you, that’s not silly at all. I have always really liked Beast from the X-Men for similar reasons.

    It can be remarkably difficult to find gender-related things that I want to emulate so I’ll take them where I can get them.
