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 a couple decades ago I started writing a story about a gender-flexible shapeshifter in a relationship with a gender-inflexible one, and I researched trans-ness a bit.

I've been a cis male my entire life. I've never been unsure about it. when I ask myself, what if I were a girl, it kinda "does not compute". gimme a skirt and a vagina, sure, that sounds interesting to try, but I'd be a male with a skirt and a vagina. I have no idea what this "male" essence is, but it's me
