When I was figuring my self out, one of the things that cracked off a big chunk of shell was a reasonably famous dude on Twitter (well you know Twitter famous) saying he'd thought about his gender and come to the conclusion he was really a dude.

Up until that point I'd been hiding behind the assumption that anyone who actually thought about this would end up figuring they aren't their gender assigned at birth, and most people have just never thought about it but were probably some flavour of non binary at least.

So... Hay... Cis folk, I... Errr... Think there are some of you following me... Maybe...

Want to do a trans person a solid and chime in with your answers below.?

Have you thought about your gender? What it would be like to not be your current gender?

Did it feel good? Better? "Oh fuck no"?

@mindpersephone Am cis, considered my gender, came out still cis (but like, Wolf Male not Human Male), so yeah I'm like that Twitter dude!

DEFINITELY the idea of being a woman is "oh fuck no" for me. Being agender or something would be less INSTANT NOPE, but still, I like my gender and I'm keepin' it. :3

I still consider myself nonbinary since I'm not /human man/ male, though. I'm both male and nonbinary and that confuses the heck out of people. :3

@IceWolf @mindpersephone hey frost?
what do you mean with "like that twitter dude"?? /gen

@det @mindpersephone The twitter dude mentioned in the OP!

@det @mindpersephone (pop that link into your client search bar, it should show up. If you see that but not my post attached to it, also pop in https://spookygirl.boo/notes/ajhkdqaalr8qkdw7 which is in the middle and is the one I directly replied to.)

(you can also see everything over on Persephone's instance by just clicking it, of course, but then you gotta deal with her instance's UI instead of yours. Upside is you'll see other other people's replies that haven't made it to your instance, too.)
