@rooster the replies to this thread are gonna be girls, either now or later
but for real if i'd thought to ask some of the cis dudes in my life how often they thought about being girls before i transitioned, i could have saved myself some time. had the conversation after with a few, and the one that i'll remember went like this:
"so have you ever thought about what it'd be like to be a woman?"
"yeah, of course. once or twice."
"a week, right?"
"no. like⦠ever."
@OctaviaConAmore @h5e @zmbush @rooster @Staren torn between the feminine urge to point out that "egg-cracking" culture is as good a way to shove someone back in the closet as any other unwanted interrogation of gender, and the reasonable feminine assumption that anyone in this thread is asking for it
just be a good and loud example, ladies π
@rooster Honestly seeing you on mastodon was one of my inspirations for exploring gender for myself beyond just "not guy". So I'd say you're doing a good job at that.
