Heyy,
Bisexual/ possibly omnisexual actually?
As well as possibly bigender (female & Agender)
I've had to explore a bit, and fun fact: Even as a child my favorite color ended up being a mix of both of my parents' favorite colors lol.
My dad's was light blue and my mom's is green, so I heard that from them and ended up with aquamarine.
I am very much an indecisive "Y'know what? I Choose both" sort of person, and I guess that applies to almost every aspect of who I am lol.
Though, I am not really out to my family, I'm 90% sure they already know lol. My friends know for sure though. Most of them are also in the community.

A few days ago I decided to stop deliberating over whether or not I should define myself as trans, and honestly I'm really happy about it! For now at least, I'm a transmasc enby.
Now that I've got the whole gender thing sorted out, i just gotta figure what the heck is going on with my sexuality. Yes, my forum signature says bi, but it's actually a hell of a lot more complicated. Especially since I have exactly negative one million rizz and have never been in a relationship. Oops.

Please read the bios/broadcast messages of my dragons before referring to them! Many of them have genders other than what they were assigned by the game :)
i've spent most of my (not so long, admittedly) life thinking i'm cis, maybe a little gender-indifferent, maybe even any pronouns kind of cis
but ever since i came out to my friend as a they/them enby and got to feel the comfort of perfectly fitting pronouns/language use for me... i've realised just how much misgendering actually bothers me. i twitch physically i think??????? like when you want to curl into a ball from feeling embarrassment/cringe kind of thing?? i was shown some screenshot and it had my name next to an incorrectly gendered verb (a thing in my native language) and i DID take some emotional damage from it. i never even considered the possibility of having "gender dysphoria", i just thought i prefer one label over others. so weird.

okay other trans people i wanna know...
i don't like the term "passing"
it makes me feel like i'm being told i'm good at "pretending" to be male. "passing" makes me feel like i'm being told i'm good at being something i'm not.
it's hard to put it into words, but it feels like i'm being misgendered and told that i'm good at acting like a boy. i don't know if it's only me, but i just wanted to get this out there...

@TransDisaster there are a lot of trans people who don't like that term, or the entire concept it represents really, you are far from the only one.
as a nonbinary person it's especially confusing to me because i can never "pass" as nonbinary. people are either going to read me as male or female when they see me for the first time, i have literally never had something correctly assume i'm nonbinary just from my appearance. how do i "pass" as nonbinary? do i have to be completely androgynous in all ways? i don't want that, not to mention it's physically impossible for me without surgery (which i don't want).
"passing" is important for some trans people, i get that, but for others its either impossible or extremely difficult. not to mention how loaded the term is itself. i can't think of a better alternative word, though.

Another tell is that I struggle with what sexual attraction is. Most people who aren't ace seem to know what that term means. <snip>
I don't rule out the possibility that I might one day meet the right person and then feelings will awaken. But for now I identify as "ace until proven otherwise".

aghhghghghgh it's so me i'm about to cry ">_<
literally cannot tell what romantic and sexual attraction are, what they're supposed to feel like, how people approach them... and i genuinely have no idea whether it's because i don't interact with the outside world much & have social anxiety or because i'm on the a-spec or something
a lot of queer people i've talked to (over the internet obviously) had (have) this "oh i always knew i was queer!" sentiment (good for them!! /pos) and i'm here being a catastrophic mess ><"""

I thought I was ace for the longest time. Then I got into a relationship with my trans girfriend and realized... Wow. I just needed to have a deep personal connection with someone to enjoy or look foward to those things. So I'm clearly demisexual lol, explains a lot-
