I think I figured out I was bi when I was around 12? I don't remember exactly what spurred it, but the first female fictional character I remember thinking was hot was Franziska von Karma. God. She's the ideal woman.
And tbh I'm just now starting to wonder if I may have more going on than just "cis chick" gender-wise. I'm pretty sure I'm a woman, but I might also be something else? Uhhhh if anyone has resources for figuring out if you may be multigender, or just wants to talk to me about it, that would be appreciated lol
If you feel like the label woman isn't enough to adequately describe your feelings around gender, simply add more labels. You don't have to overthink it as some kinda strict box, like you must fit x criteria to identify as y.
Wow, that is a throwback. I now want to replay through every Phoenix Wright game.
The gender dysphoria bible was a pretty enlightening read when I was beginning my gender crisis. Don't let the word bible influence you into taking it as gospel, no document is perfect, but it does a pretty thorough job of explaining the different feelings characteristic of trans and non-binary people.
Wow, that link is something I wish I had when I was starting out 6 or so years ago. Reading through it with my partner right now, it does a great job of succinctly but comprehensively consolidating so many things that we had to pick up in bits and pieces over time.
Agreed, but also curse that darn site for starting to make me question things a lot (in a good way though hehe)
Just finished reading through it together, what an excellent resource. I especially liked and appreciated the explanations of gender euphoria and how it relates to gender dysphoria, one of the most thoughtful and clear articulations I've seen.
Why do you need to be multi gender when you could just be idk yourself
Being multigender is valid. Let's not go around criticizing someone's identity. Be better than that.
