I Am In Support of Transgender and Genderqueer People
I'll reflect on my experience tonight, and whether or not, things be negative?..I'll intend to follow my own, comfortable approach, should nothing feel natural...Natural??????...Well what I mean by this is? >>>..My ambition to transition was all due to gender disphoria. Feeling uncomfortable during puberty, or growing up. If it had anything at all to do with stereotypes?..be it mannerisms or posture??...well I could have only hoped I had inherited the "female" stereotypes. That's not going to happen in a male dominated family. Years of being taught brotherhood...and you mimic your brothers as grow......Then there's obviously the realisation, that I was insecure in my body...and set to transition to suit myself...And therefore shouldn't need to change everything, like mannerisms and personality..especially if It's body conscious, and gender expression (How I present) that's getting me down!?
One massive problem!!!...this world were stereotypes define us!!...and as comfortable as I am being myself personally...it can be discomforting if people are more questionable of your gender, because of how you act, like a woman, acting like a guy??...tonight I tried a feminine approach..a ladylike persona .. and may I say, I'm generally against any of this stuff!!...I mean really?? how should a lady act?? ....People should really just be themselves!
But I done it tonight...Lets change how I act and neglect my true self. And I was talking to other girls there, and talking to guys there. Went back to an after party for drinks. And one of the guys said he liked me...but!!..How tiring!! How draining it is...to keep up this fake behaviour. It's not you. And whether born male or female? I don't think it matters. I reckon its your upbringing....with me...I have eight cousins, all male, and three brothers.....I find it extremely exhausting trying to perform a stereotypical behaviour to match the gender I present....but it's the only way people understand you on this planet[image][image]
