Bigender (nonbinary-leaning) Pride Flag

[Image: 7 stripes colored with darkish yellow, lightish yellow, violetish grey, white, violet-ish gray, light-ish yellow and dark-ish yellow]

Bigender: having two distinct gender identities, either at the same time, or at different times. Not necessarily ambigender.

can you do a neutrois-leaning bigender flag? it would be like man-leaning/woman-leaning/abinary-leaning flags, but green instead. similar to the gender-neutral flag. there are also another design format by @velviflags. and androgyne-leaning with purple could be a thing if you could

man leaning bigender | woman leaning bigender nonbinary leaning bigender | androgyne leaning bigender agender leaning bigender | maverique leaning bigender neutrois leaning bigender (ver. 1) | neutrois leaning bigender (ver. 2)

I didn't really like the pre-existing bigender leaning flags (I personally don't think purple is a perfect color to represent bigender, since that kind of implies bigender is male+female. No hate to those who prefer it though), so I made my own set based off of the 5 stripe bigender flag.

I decided to include other nonbinary related bigender leaning flags, as well as my own versions of man and woman leaning bigender flags.

The flags are fairly simple, the use the 5 bigender flag colors, as well as 2 extra stripes (or 3 in the case of nonbinary) for the gender leaning. Extra shade blue for man leaning bigender. Extra shade of pink for woman leaning bigender. Extra purple, yellow, and black for nonbinary leaning bigender (based off of nonbinary flag. And since just adding black didn't seem quite right). Extra shade of purple for androgyne leaning bigender (as suggested, and since pink and blue were already present in the base bigender flag). Light green and dark grey for agender leaning bigender (based off the agender flag). Orange for maverique leaning bigender (like in the maverique flag, and since yellow was already in the base bigender flag). Green for neutrois (as suggested). There's also a second green and black version (more closely resembles the neutrois flag).

(why do I always get carried away with making sets of things? I think they work though?)

i have such a love/hate relationship with being unable to transition in my life currently, for a multitude of reasons

because while it sucks, not feeling like the body im in reflects me 100% (i do feel like its *me*, always has been *me*, just not like..the full picture of me) the entire reason it took me so long to come to terms with being fully a boy is that i don't hate being a girl! i enjoy a lot of it! but in the way that i don't want it to be my entirety. i want womanhood like a cosplayer wants to out on a wig. i love being a girl in the way a drag queen loves being a queen. i love being feminine, but i don't want to be seen as just feminine.

so now that i've come to terms with the fact that i won't be satisfied until i'm actually transitioning, instead of feeling trapped by femininity i feel like...i'm doing a victory lap. a farewell tour.

i don't hesitate to compliment other girls anymore because I know when i'm fully passing as a guy it won't be seen the same way. when i meet a girl for the first time instead of shying away from "being a girl's girl" and gossiping about her trip in italy where her boyfriend cheated on her; instead i lean into it, not thinking twice about how i might make the conversation awkward because i know one day this isn't going to happen one conversation in with a girl i've never met before. because now that i know why these things always made me uncomfortable despite how much i like them, i can enjoy them while they last. having a pad on hand for the random lady in walmart. being in a thrift store and an older woman approaching me to ask if the yellow dress or the purple dress looks better, and i say the purple one because it suits her eyes. because i know one day, i will be happier because ill feel so much more comfortable in my own body, but i know i'm going to miss these parts of being a girl.

i love women!!! and i love being among women! but i don't love being a woman, not like the joy ive felt after accepting that i'm not. but that's okay, and i know i will miss it, but that means i can enjoy it while it's here ❤️

BUZZCUT PROS: get gendered correctly more/get male gender euphoria, i live in texas and its 100 fucking degrees every day, low maintenance (can cut + maintain easily myself)

BUZZCUT CONS: i have dermatillomania so the scabs on my scalp will be visible, grows super quickly so it's hard to dye it one color consistently and hide the roots

MULLET PROS: messy long hair like a "mane" gives me creaturegender euphoria, fun to style, look goth/alt with low effort, boyfriend likes it :3

MULLET CONS: get misgendered constantly, like a blanket on my neck in the heat/other related sensory issues, high maintenance (have to get it cut at a salon, bedhead before work is a nightmare), is gonna take like 8-12 months to regrow

just took your uquiz lol! about being trans! what do you think it could mean if I wanted to be a guy but didn’t really mind being who i am? it’s not even any guy, it’s like specific guys (like actors,. I don’t know). Sometimes people say they’d rather be an ugly guy than a good looking woman, and I couldn’t relate less. Part of the reason I’m so scared about this (and it’s a big part) is that I’m just so terrified of being ugly. I’m finally conventionally attractive after years of trying to be, and now I’m scared I won’t be anymore. I’m wondering if maybe the first time i thought i was trans i went about it the wrong way (i was obsessed w masculinity, cut my hair, things like that). And is it even worth it doing anything about it if I’m not dysphoric? I’m also very scared about the finding someone to love me and also losing all my friends and family thing (100% will happen). This whole maybe not ever finding a guy to love me thing is really bothering me, too. You can ignore this I’m just venting a lot. Sorry.

hey friend! i think it could help out a lot if you looked into the idea of gender euphoria. the quick description essentially is the opposite of dysphoria, where rather than "being x makes me feel bad," its "being x makes me feel good". there's been a lot of discourse about this over the years and you will still find people out there who will be shitty, but as someone with dysphoria, i have always fallen firmly on the "you do not need dysphoria to be trans" side of things. i believe that if it makes you happy to be a specific way, you shouldnt have to hate being the way you are to be allowed to pursue that. i dont have to turn down a cheesecake just because i don't hate poundcake, suffering is not a requirement to get to the things that make you happy.

i will also say, to me it does sound like a lot of this struggle is based around your ideals irt attractiveness, and while that is very human, it sounds like you also know that your relationship with that is somewhat unhealthy? like, yes, people by and large want others to think they look nice, but that shouldnt come between you loving the body you're in. there are billions of people with billions of opinions and you will never be able to satisfy all of them, and if you try then all those opinions pulling in different directions will draw and quarter you lol. so to me it sounds a bit like itll be hard for you to really unravel your thoughts irt your gender until you're able to work through those hangups around attractiveness? or even that these may be something youll have to unravel in tandem

something that might help start that is next time youre feeling unattractive, rather than pulling away from that feeling or changing something about your look or wallowing in it, take some time to sit with it as a friend. ask it what's so scary about being unattractive. is it societal pressure telling you Girls Have To Be Pretty? is it your parents picking apart your appearance often? is it your friends treating you poorly because of your looks? figure out what it is that has created the unattractive=bad association in your mind, find who has been punishing you (literally or metaphorically) for looking "bad", and ask if you actually did anything wrong that deserves punishment by simply existing on your default settings, or if perhaps it wasnt actually about you at all, and was just about those peoples insecurities. when you pay attention, you start to notice that 99% of the time, attacks against others are defensiveness, they are insecure about something and something you did or said reminded them of it, so now they feel uncomfortable and want it to stop, and the way you do that is either investigate why, or take it out on someone else. and investigating why feels bad and takes a lot of time, so, yknow. path of least resistance, most people will lash out. and that does suck, but in my experience, realizing that made it a thousand times easier to not worry abt other ppls opinions' anywhere near as much. the way that i look is the way that /i/ like, not how society does, because im the one that has to live with me 24/7. society can deal with the horrific terrible burden of seeing me getting gas looking like a 1 occasionally, bc like literally how does that effect them yknow? theyre not harmed in any way by me existing and not looking how they want me to, and it would be weird for them to expect that of me because I Didnt Know They Existed Before Now so how could i possibly dress for them? and why would i?

(that can help w insecurities too ime is like. imagine someone else saying those things to you, would you think theyre an asshole and tell them to fuck off? if yes, you have permission to tell your brain the same thing)

as far as finding someone to love you, i definitely feel that fear but 1000% you have nothing to worry about. the adult queer scene is bursting to the seams with people who will want whatever it is that youre bringing to the table like a man lost in the desert for fifty years being offered a crisp mcdonalds sprite. "but what about-" yes that too. like, enough that they had to make a word specifically for cis people who Really Really Want To Date Trans People A Creepy Amount to distinguish between them and respectful ppl. i promise your dating pool is not small, you're just still in school and/or a small town and dont have access to them yet. give it time, you have decades ahead of you

as far as family and friends, honestly, yeah, you might lose them, im not gonna sugar coat that. and that sucks . so much. and i can tell you theres more people out there to befriend and that you can build a new family but id bet thatd hit about as well as it hits for me. bc truth is that yeah, you can make a new family, but that just isn't the same. there will still be a little hole in your heart reserved for the accepting and loving family and friends you deserved. and i cant really offer any advice on making that go away if thats how it turns out bc its still there for me.

but i also gotta say? the hole is a lot easier to deal with than the knife that put it there. theres still a painful spot but at least im not still actively being hurt More by them. so like im trying very hard not to just say "fuck em who needs em" here bc i know its not that easy and for a lot of people that isn't the right answer anyways, but yknow. thats what i did and im doing better, and at the end of the day i can really only speak from my own experience. either way, just know that there are in fact people out there who will accept and love you regardless of who you are or how you look, and in fact will encourage you to do things that make you look "worse" by society's standards if it makes you happy.

anyways. i hope that wasnt too depresso there, i think ill finish this off by addressing "is it even worth doing anything about it if im not dysphoric?": imo, yes, absolutely. there are parts of me that i wasnt dysphoric about before starting t that now make me ridiculously happy. i never knew i wanted chest hair and yet now i sometimes just sit here staring at it like "!!!!!!". you deserve a body that makes you happy. not a body that makes the people around you happy, not a body you can tolerate, a body that makes YOU happy. you could probably tolerate living in a featureless square apartment with all the bare essentials and 0 decorations if it was cheap, but would it make you happy? personally, i think you deserve to put up posters even if the world thinks theyd look dumb.

Boyishness Discovered.

Ronin x trans ftm reader, comfort fic, fluff, reader discovering that he's a man

Words: 898

Cws: Spoilers for Killer Chat maybe, this work is very much self indulgent,

You were sitting in your room, nervously checking your phone every now and then, Ronin was supposed to get to your place shortly. You were stressed, you were about to reveal the biggest and most important fact about yourself. Something you've just assured yourself of.

Something you've been discovering since you were a growing child.

You were about to come out to Ronin, come out as trans, tell him that you're a man, that you feel like this female shell is the worst prison you were ever in.

"Shit... why is it so fucking stressful." You whispered to yourself, clutching your hands on your t-shirt, holding onto it for dear life.

Ever since you discovered the concept of gender and that people thought of it as something incredibly important, you experienced a very strong discomfort, a feeling of depression in a way.

You hated it, hated the image of a girl in your mirror, but you couldn't wrap your head around it. It all felt alien to you, these feelings of hatred even. You wanted to destroy your mirror, break it so you never have to see that weird girl in it, someone who was definitely not you.

You started to lean more into the queer cultures, read about all the sexualities and gender identities. Since you were fourteen you had eight different identities, all of which always involved being masculine in some way, or at least not gender binary. You were a demigirl, a demiboy, genderfluid, bigender, then nonbinary and then trans.

You remembered the slight feeling of warmness growing in your chest when you referred to yourself as a boy as a child, but you quickly came back to being cis, because that was safer, that was right.

So right it was burning your throat, so right you were choking on your held back sobs, so right you never felt more wrong.

It took you a lot of time to find it in you, the courage to find yourself. You were afraid, afraid of being taken for a fraud, for a liar, it was scary. The world isn't a kind place for those out of ordinary, that included minorities, queer people counted in.

You were looking at yourself in the reflection in your phone, you looked sad, afraid, uncertain.

Your hair put half up, half down because that's the only hair style for your semi long hair that didn't feel feminine, your clothes baggy enough for you to drown in them, baggy enough to cover all shapes you hated in yourself.

You weren't happy with your appearance, but that's the best a newly born boy can come to, at least in your case.

"Hey baby." Ronin's voice came from behind you.

You turned around, the devil standing in your doorway. Smile never faltering, mischief in black-hole eyes, boy created by guts and slaughter in front of you.

You were near crying in front of him, crying out the jealousy you felt every time you saw him and how satisfied he felt with himself. You hated yourself more for this jealousy, how could you be jealous of your boyfriend's happiness?

"Hi Ro..." You replied, a soft smile on your lips when he approached you and kissed your forehead.

He noticed how stiff you were and titled his head to the side. "What's up, darlin'?"

Your breath hitched in your throat, you were barely holding back a sob.

He sat down next to you on your bed, took your hand in his and caressed its back. "Hey, talk to me. 's fine, I won't get mad, I'd never get mad at ya." He reassured you.

You took a sharp and shaky breath. Closing your eyes and opening them again to look at him.

What if he thinks that I'm a fraud?

You were scared of that possibility and your brain racing with these thoughts was not helping you in any way.

"I-" You paused, feeling the tears slowly roll down your cheeks. "I'm trans Ronin. I'm a man." You whispered these words, almost uncertain of admitting the truth in front of him, or maybe even yourself.

Ronin's expression softened, then he chuckled and held your hand firmly in his.

"Oh baby." He purred. "I'm so proud." His eyes never left yours, not when he cupped your face, not when he pulled you in to gently kiss you, not when he was wiping your tears.

"You... you don't think I'm a fraud....?" You asked, sniffing. You were leaning into his touch, trying to claim all the warmth his body shared with you.

He shook his head. "Nah, you wouldn't be such a nervous wreck about this if you were lyin'." He shrugged. "You're genuine, about yourself and your feelings an' 's enough for me."

You bit the inside of your cheek.

"How do I start this Ro?"

"Transition?"

"Yeah..."

He thought for a second, looking like he was collecting his thoughts. "Well, we can go slow if you're scared sweetheart. Cut your hair, teach ya how to do a more masculine looking make up, get you tape or a binder, whichever you like more" He paused and nuzzled his forehead against yours.

"We'll do it however you'd like, darlin', and I'll be your guide though this beautiful mess."

Maybe all you ever needed was a devil, ready to help and listen. Letting you be yourself in your own way.

Hiii

Sorry it's short, it's late and I'm sick ;w;

Love ya! N <3

Keep being the awesome people you are, and don't let other people get in the way of letting you be yourself. Even if you're in a situation where being completely out isn't an option, or nobody else is able to know for safety reasons, know that I am here and I respect and value your internal feelings and identity. If you ever need someone to talk to, someone to be a listening ear, just know that I'm always a DM away. If you want to try out a new set of pronouns for yourself, I will happily help you explore that form of self-expression. I love you all. Stay safe, stay happy, and stay yourself 💛

A WILD COINING APPEARED ! ! !

[pt: A wild coining appeared]

Transmasc-ish A transitional label describing an individual who does not fully identify as transmasculine, but may feel some form of connection to the label, may partially identify it, or may feel like they're “almost transmasculine but not quite,” such as an individual who is bigender and considers one of their genders transmasculine in nature, a nonbinary person who is masculine-leaning but does not consider themselves transmasculine for whatever reason they have, or someone who just doesn't think transmasculinity fully describes them or their identity.

Transfem-ish A transitional label describing an individual who does not fully identify as transfeminine, but may feel some form of connection to the label, may partially identify it, or may feel like they're "almost transfeminine but not quite," such as an individual who is bigender and considers one of their genders transfeminine in nature, a nonbinary person who is feminine-leaning but does not consider themselves transfeminine for whatever reason they have, or someone who just doesn't think transfemininity fully describes them or their identity.

these terms do not not referring to individuals who one may perceive as "not trans enough" or "almost a trans person" and should never under any circumstances be used in that manner; this is not a pejorative or an exclusionary label, and doesn't necessarily describe the experience of "almost being trans," though depending on the individual, being "almost trans" can apply. it describes the experience of not quite fitting into a transitional label, or feeling distanced from it, whatever that means to the individual.

extremely self-indulgent. feel free to coin other -ish labels!!

MM1 + MM2 Robot Master Genders(tm)

Ive wanted to infodump about my headcanons for genders for the mm1+2 (mostly 1 sowwy) for a while now and im FINALLY DOING IT

All purely my headcanons for my uh... au? Interp of Classic Megaman?? ... Scatterverse????? Idk whatever you wanna call it

So the first line designed by Light was always meant to be fairly gender-neutral. The "man" suffix wasn't intended to imply every bot was male, but rather was meant to be derived from human, and meant to embody the fact that the robot masters are meant to work alongside humans.

Though, as designs came along and the bots began interacting with the world around them, they found that things just sort of defaulted to more masculine presentations for the bots, and in most eyes they're all considered pretty male

As time went on though, the DLN were definitely way "looser" when it came to playing with gender than the DWN. They were very much encouraged by Dr. Light to explore their own identities and what things meant for them, and so there's a lot more fluidity in how the DLN present themselves

Cutman (he/him) doesn't really care about gender, but is chill with being called he/him or masculine terms. Doesn't really care to label his gender- MAYBE nonbinary if he HAD to choose a label but like he really doesn't care to label it

Gutsman (he/him) definitely the most "cis" of the bunch but also the biggest trans ally on the entire planet. Certified Transphobe Puncher(tm)

Iceman (he/they) Like Cut, doesn't really care for gender, but feels that demiboy is the closest label to how they feel about themself

Bombman (he/she) If there are "rules" for gender then she is determined to break every single one. Torn between id-ing as bigender or genderpunk... definitely leaning towards genderpunk

Fireman (he/him) Like Guts, also very "cis" but also supremely enthusiastic about being an ally. He specifically practiced using your pronouns extensively so he could surprise you with getting it right next time he sees you

Elecman (he/him) "Cis" but like. "If gender is a performance, I'm going for a Tony". Super gender non-conforming and loves playing with gender presentations. 100% does drag and loves it

Timeman (they/them) Agender. Thinks identifying with a binary gender is stupid because they are a machine that doesn't have a sex. Frustrated why Oil won't explain what they mean with his own gender identity

Oilman (he/they) "I'm nonbinary, but in a boy way." Will refuse to elaborate if you ask him what that means. Drives Time insane with this

The DWN are a lot more "rigid" on their genders. Created to be weapons and not companions, they see way less point in "playing" with gender. Gender is a social construct, and the DWN very much want to tear society down so like. Yeah. They don't understand gender let alone gender nonconformity. They're all very masculine in presentation and gender identity.

THAT being SAID I have 2 exceptions to this and their names are Quickman and Bubbleman

So Quickman (he/him) was originally built to be a female bot, but due to naming conventions giving all bots the -man suffix (see above), Quick's name was always Quickman. The only female bot of the line, Quick had trouble feeling "right" in his frame, especially when all of his linemates were much more male-presenting.

For reasons he couldn't explain at the time, Quick decided to "pretend" to be a male bot during the events of mm2, and like- Quick being treated like a boy by the Lights was an instant shot of gender euphoria through his circuits and there has been no going back since.

Very shortly post-mm2, Quick came out to the others about being a boy now and they were all shockingly cool about it. Because no one other than Wily and the mm2 bots knew, they were very secretive about it, very much a "we take this to our graves" response, and as a result Quick was actually super closeted as a trans man. Everyone else (even the other Wily bots) were under the impression that Quick was cis for the longest time

Later down the line, though, Bubbleman (they/them) starts playing around with gender, and eventually comes out to the mm2 bots about being nonbinary. Again, they're received well, but Bubble runs into a different problem than Quick.

The general public always thought Quick was a boy, so Quick had no problems being perceived as his gender. Bubble was always known as a boy before presenting as enby though, and isn't received as well as Quick in some public spaces. Bubble will even get bullied over being enby by some transphobes, which really destroys their self confidence

After having enough of this, Quick decides to start being a lot more open about his trans identity in public spaces, and is much more vocal about his own experiences. He absolutely doesn't do this because of the transphobes, no they can all eat shit. He does this to try and give Bubble more of a safe space to be around. If Quick can be publicly proud about his identity, maybe that can help his linemate feel more comfortable being themself too

As a result, Quick and Bubble actually end up being, like, super close, and it's sweet. and i love them. a lot.

Streetsmart tactician, varies between Friendless and Puppetmaster scar, and between Anger or Revenge motivation, depending on playthrough. Mob Boss who's friendly with her crew and showed them her face and base. Base is in the luxury property. Armor is Imposing.

- She's reckless, loves to banter and fight even being a tactician, and despite being very driven and able to be quite ruthless, she's got a strong grip on her morals and lines she won't cross for the most part. However, she is still of the opinion that the ends justify the means. Passionate and stubborn, struggles with caring too much about others when she's supposed to be detached in order to be safe and achieve her goals. Can be very caring when she allows herself to be. Has a lot of hobbies, but the main ones include reading children's books, fashion, singing and playing guitar.

- Main vice is sweets, but drinks alcohol when she hits rock bottom as well.

- Main romance path is Ortega, but has also been with Daniel or Argent in some playthroughs.

- Has mild scoliosis and chronic pain in her hands, especially her right wrist due to repeated injury. Sensitive skin can get easily irritated from various materials.

Nathane Mariom

- Femme-leaning Bigender, she/they pronouns, asexual lesbian, White.

- Blue leaning stats for the most part, but ruthless levels are unstable. Tech savvy tactician, Friendless scar with Revenge motivation, sui tag true, Anarchist who wants to break the system. Base is in the tunnels. Armor varies between Mysterious and Terrifying.

- She's apathetic, shy but blunt, struggles with recognizing her own emotions, has severe depression and does not take care of herself at all. Doesn't know how to connect to people, and though they're not openly malicious, struggles to set limits for themselves in their villainy, which often hurts a lot more people than they acknowledge. Fucked up tendencies they're not completely aware of. Main hobby is doodling and learning about ocean creatures, especially whales, sharks and jellyfish.

- Has a vice on coffee and extremely caffeinated energy drinks.

- Main romance path is the poly with Argent and Julia, though they have also been involved with Mortum as the puppet in some paths.

- Has widespread chronic pain and fatigue, likely due to fibromyalgia worsened by trauma and nerve damage. Used to just suffer without support, but as of Retribution and Revelations, has gotten a manual wheelchair with power assist and an upright rollator to help with the pain in their daily life. Sometimes uses a single crutch around the house.

Matheus Carvalho

- Trans man, he/him pronouns, gay, Black with a Brazilian heritage.

- Bluestep, very empathetic, though there's some minor arrogance there depending on playthrough. Tech savvy tactician, Outsider scar with Fate motivation, sui tag true, varies between Hero Hunter and Anarchist. Base is in the tech shop. Villain armor varies between Mysterious and Functional.

- He's empathetic, prefers to be gentle when he can, is quiet and very shy, struggles with getting close to people or believing he's able to make connections. His beliefs in Fate are very strong, and he believes he's doomed to fall and fail no matter what, which both comforts and terrifies him. Has an all-or-nothing approach to things, struggles with nuance and rigid thinking. Despite everything, he tries his best to be kind and tell the truth when he's able to. At the same time, struggles with transitions between lies and truth, and as such often gets caught up in trouble when he holds on to a single instance for too long. Hobbies include baking, fashion, reading poetry and practicing capoeira.

- Maxed out Daring and Arrogance stats with extremely high Empathy to balance it out. Tech savvy tactician, Hunger scar with Better Life motivation, sui tag true, art Thief who's very good at hir job. Villain base varies, armor is Terrifying.

- Zie's chaotic, mischievous, thrill seeking, self-destructive and hyperactive to cover up the fact that hir senses are dulled and hir senses of personhood and connection to the world are messed up. Zie's usually kinda sweet, if snarky, and doesn't mean to cause unnecessary harm, but will often do so due to hir reckless behavior. Has a distorted mentality when it comes to the logics of villainy and manipulation, genuinely believes that zie's doing good by hurting the heroes and giving them a "challenge", for example. Constantly looking for intense sensory feelings, which makes it drawn to eyestrain, Scene and Weirdcore stuff, fidget toys, snacks with strong flavors, and abstract art. Has a special interest in space and galaxy stuff, which is where hir name comes from, and hir main hobbies include art and singing.

- Has an extreme sweet vice, but will often indulge in caffeine and alcohol as well.

- Romance path is with Danny.

- Has chronic pain and nerve damage in hir right shoulder, lower back, left hip, both knees and right ankle. Uses very colorful crutches to get by in civilian life, and relies on hir armor's pain management systems for villain work.

thank you for the encouragement @liamgallaghermpreg :3c some brief points about bigender Majima that i was marinating since making the more casual post:

>reclaims own masculinity by cutting his hair short and growing facial hair; keeps this look for decades even when fashion changes, so we might infer comfort and/or enjoyment of the style

>performs feminine caricature of self as a goof yes but also that goof was done with time and care, evidenced by the extremely customized outfit tailored to her own fit and favored patterns, was not fazed or challenged by wearing short dress & heels

>whole character is about exaggeration, performance, and radical change of the self after a period of deep trauma, discomfort, and being trapped

everything comes back to Goromi and how i don’t think that was just a bit to be a menace to Kiryu lol. buuuut at the same time, i don’t see Majima as struggling with masculinity/wanting to transition away from masculinity, (s)he’s moreso trapped by broader social expectations that the yakuza lifestyle puts on him and such. the shift after Y0 is Majima’s self-actualization, and that step is just as important to my read of Majima’s gender as Goromi is in Kiwami 1. i think there are a good deal of things about being masculine and feminine that are euphoric for him! but also, i don’t see her as nonbinary, Majima is VERY LOUD and ASSERTIVE when claiming identity. not that you can’t be loud and assertive about being nonbinary or even having no gender, but i think Majima is the opposite of that where (s)he leans in HARD to both ends of this spectrum… all in a really personal, eccentric way, too, of course! he’s not adhering the social standards of how proper men should dress and behave, but also she’s not the most ladylike woman who shaves all her body hair crosses her ankles. (s)he’s just unhinged in all directions and full of her own brand of gender 💖⚧️🐍

[tmascearth]

If Earth is a boy now…. WHY DID HE NOT GET RID OF TITTES????

did he keep them for fun??

Like someone calls him a girl and he like “Ooo! Sorry pal, I’m just a guy with boobs!”

LIKE HUH?

ok so i know i didnt answer this ask for a while bc i. forgot. but its been rattling around in my head bc it is genuinely the funniest thing ever i am SO sorry op

but i WILL use this time to talk about my hcs!!! and go in depth with them. going in order so if just you want an explanation for earth just skip to his section

SUN — sits comfortably somewhere in the transmascneu range i think. pangender, encompasses anything and everything. makes little to no effort into really transitioning simply because he has better things to do! he has a solar system to run! also he is above the concepts of gender. whether you think hes more "masc" or "fem" means nothing to him. hes the sun.

MERCURY — the most trans transmasc to ever trans. i dont know if hes more male or nonbinary leaning but that honestly just depends on the day for me personally. probably more nby. he 100% would go through with physically transitioning because the dysphoria is killer

VENUS — literally the complete opposite to mercury, the most trans transfem to ever fem. honestly see her as more butchy, but only really becomes more comfortable with being more masc once she has transitioned (transitioning in this case just meaning socially, though physically i imagine shes on the fence abt it. change and whatnot. she does have a bit of a chest though i think #boobs)

EARTH — transmasc like mercury, but unlike mercury he does not give a FUCKKK!!! i think you're confusing my earth for a trans man, which he very much is not considering hes a lesbian LMFAO. i see him being more bigender/genderfluid than anything, he doesnt really care to transition physically bc he likes his body! he likes the mother earth thing yk. obnoxiously transgender but you still cant misgender him. tragic. also yes he did keep them for fun

MARS — transneu but also doesnt gaf. like im dead serious he did NOTHING to transition no prn change no nothing he just woke up one day and said im agender. hes so iconic

JUPITER — cis i fear... but hes the biggest ally u will ever meet

SATURN — TRANSFEM!!!!! but in a yaoiful way. you know? physically transitioned but still considers himself somewhat male adjacent? but not really??? basically can be described as "what i look like with he/him pronouns in my bio"

URANUS — also transfem! serious gender envy from saturn. shes veeery jealous and i imagine just figured out that shes Girl recently. also dont think it helps that she has a big fat crush on saturn but you didnt hear that from me! i think venus is also gets envious of her and saturn... ura also wants to continue transitioning but i see her as more mid-process

NEPTUNE — transmascneu adjacent!!! genderfluid like earth, doesnt mind being called anything. forgets what pronouns he uses on a regular basis so he'll just respond to whatever you call him LMFAOOO. hes too busy being a goober to persue any kind of physical transition i think but i do like to imagine him with fun top scars.... mayhaps wavey... or trident.... idk it just looks silly with his gills n i like it

NON-PLANET BONUS SPEEDROUND: luna is transfem and nby, titan is nby, triton is unlabeled, callisto is nby, ceres is.... Um, pluto is transfem, astrodude is transmasc, makemake is transmasc, ganymede is.... closeted??, titania is transmasc and nby, the list goes on im sick of writing these
