This is in no way a trawl for attention or necessarily even a Thing but...

I was monologuing to my kitchen cupboards and referred to my past self as 'a younger man' and had a moment where I felt like that sounded wrong, and always has?

Similar to the realisation at the age of 31 around asexuality, it just occurred to me that it's always felt awkward to refer to myself as a man.

I'm a beardy masc-presenting person with he/him pronouns, but... yeah, that was an Interesting Moment.

I'm not suggesting that I could be trans, I don't and never have identified as feminine either. But at the same time I've always felt awkward or embarrassed to call myself 'man.' Like I just don't identify with that, on some level I don't quite grasp.

Anyway, hello and good morning. :3

@BrunoHirschkoff Interesting moments are good :3
@Tana yeah! That was a pretty stark one. One of those instant moments of clarity where something went 'click' in my brain but I'm yet to understand precisely what.
@BrunoHirschkoff oh I almost never understand when my brain “clicks” on something xD

@Tana yeah brain is a fuck, thoughts are soup!! But this might be the seed of a new realisation on some level. Not sure yet.

Anyway hello, hope you're doing alright!
