idk if I've ever heard anyone (cis, trans, enby, whoever) explain their experience of gender in a way I could relate to or understand as being unique to the particular gender identity they're describing

it's like people trying to explain to me the precise vibes of different high schools in their hometowns that I've never been to. no like I genuinely believe you that mcwilliamsburg kids are posers and forrester-smith-tailor students are snooty potheads, but I have no way to apply and no reason to internalize this information

#agender #nb #enby #I can relate heavily to the trans experience of masking and self-discovery but that's mostly bc I'm also a late eval autistic so #but in terms of the static/settled in gender identities I just genuinely don't understand #it's not really a purposeful choice on my part es solo que no hablo gender #like I think it's cool I think people should be able to do whatever they want with regards to gender identity and expression #but ya'll are seeing gender as shrimp colors that I can't fathom
