Comment on How do you "feel" gender?
HakunaHafada@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 week ago
In my opinion, it’s a bit of a misnomer, where “feel gender” really means “gender expression in ways that are not typical of your AGAB”. For instance, a person AFAB may “feel gender” by shaving their head, or a person AMAB may “feel gender” by wearing skirts and feminine cosmetics (blush, mascara, etc.)

My relationship with gender didn’t so much manifest that way.
Before I came out and accepted myself, I openly told myself I “should have been a girl”, but I also believed I wasn’t, and that was that. I didn’t really feel anything at the idea of femininity. That was my experience of feeling gender
