      there's probably too many to list so I suppose I'd change the question to the concept(?) of having different genders in different cultures

      was always something that was neat to me but I'm not exactly sure how to phrase/ask a question about it I suppose

          i think it's wonderful; i like that there are different genders in different cultures especially when people don't identify with the genders in society and they feel like they don't belong

            Another trans person coming in with a question to another:

            What is your experience with body hair like? I am kind of manic about it, a more minor case of TTM/DTM, though with electrolysis that should be a lesser issue for you.

              i couldn't stand all the hair on my legs before i started taking hormones so i used to shave it every once in awhile but after i started taking hormones for 6-12 months there has been a lot less hair on my legs even when i don't shave

              i also detested the hair on my face so i kept shaving it every day and every once in awhile i accidentally cut my face a little and about two years after i started taking hormones i cut my face that day and i was on the bus with someone in one of my classes and we were talking and she noticed i had a cut on my face and she asked how it happened and thought it was because i got an injury so i ended up crying in front of her and i decided i would get electrolysis

              i've been getting electrolysis for about two years total not including the time i've been getting it on and off and the hair on my face is almost completely gone even after 6 months or so

              *edit* also it's really annoying getting electrolysis because it takes a long time for the hair on my face to stop growing back so i feel the hair on my face to see how much hair is left even right after electrolysis because even after 3 or 4 hours they don't get every single hair

                Born male transitioned to female, what gender are you attracted to romantically?

                When the game isn't fun for you anymore, take a break. It's not a job, nobody here is professional and getting paid to play and force themselves to constantly improve... it's a game.

                    In the transgender context, I believe it's a realization after facing enough situations to evaluate yourself and making enough connections that it doesn't make sense to feel any other way.

                    So, you don't "feel like another social construct"; you simply realize that the other social construct had more weight than the initial one for yourself.

                    btw, gender is used to identify a group while gender identity is used to identify the individual.

                    It's a little weird to formulate your question that way.

                    Gender identity is what should truly matter for this question, but gender identity is not a social construct.

                    I hope I'm not confusing with terminology.

                        Oh okay. IDK much about gender studies and stuff, so sorry if I'm using terms incorrectly. Why is gender identity not a social construct?

                          Disclaimer: I am not trans. Just feminist trying to explain as best I can

                          Back in the day people considered gender to be a binary thing. You were either male or female, and this gender was based on your biological sex characteristics. Nowadays people realize that gender isn't binary, it's a spectrum, and people can land on the spectrum pretty much anywhere.

                          Gender identity is realizing for yourself where you, personally, fit into the gender spectrum of society. The spectrum itself is a construct but your gender identity is something you find for yourself, about where you fit into that construct personally.

                          A lot of people consider themselves to be "non-binary" people. and this just means they either don't believe in the gender binary/societal constructs, or they believe they do not have a place within them and they do not fit society's traditional male/female constructs.
