I'm in highschool, and i have a theatre class, and i sit at the third seat in a row, next to my friend and with their friend next to them. ask boxįeel free to delete this if you don't give advice or don't feel like answering!! i just don't know any other transmasc ppl that i can talk to about this :,) amab transmascs and afab transfems are just another way of being trans. Some had a very AGAB-typical childhood and life pre-transition, some don’t relate to that at all. Some have their natal genitalia, some have gotten bottom surgery and therefore wouldn’t relate to a lot of transmasc/fem content. I think also some people are concerned that people IDing that way would make transmasc/transfem meaningless, but like, its already true that not all transmascs/transfems have the same experiences. a very uncharitable way of reacting to someone’s identity! people also might think its just “cis people trying to be special”, but that’s just. I think people assume amab transmascs/afab transfems all have a very shallow idea of what it means to be transmasc/transfem (and I’m sure some do), but ime everyone I’ve seen explain IDing that way is either intersex, has had their gender affected by marginalization, or has a very complex relationship with their agab and their gender and their transition (I’m the last two). hard to explain and Aggressively, Queerly Confusing, and its a lot of work dealing with the questions and accusations of being transphobic. Oh same! I feel like thats a common issue because its so. not every person who was afab has unconditional access to womanhood nor does every person who was amab have unconditional access to manhood also me being autistic and queer is so fundamental to my experience with gender m. i was never given unconditional access to either identity. i’m so tired of people assuming that my identity must have been built on the foundation that i’m a woman, when my gender was always “freak” and i was always a failure at being a man or a woman. i grew up constantly hearing that if you had ANY male identity you were a Male and invasive. You have no idea how being multigender affects me! you have no idea the impact it has on my life! you have no idea how it changes how people treat me! almost whenever i see lesbian posts or media (a community that essentially raised me as a queer person) i always instinctively push myself away from it, because it could never really be for me, i’m too male for any lesbian to find me attractive or nice, i’m not the good butch woman they are talking about. So tired of people insisting that I have unconditional access to womanhood and lesbianism by virtue of having been assigned female at birth and so i could never ever understand being excluded.
