Anyway, there is nothing wrong with any name a trans person chooses. There will always be someone who says your name is too common or too rare, but screw that. Pick the name you want, and embrace it.
@ignoremetheweirdo This is probably late, but go for it! Thank you for the credit!
• Don’t rush yourself
Questioning takes time for some people and most people, some know their identity right off the bat, but that doesn’t mean you will too. Take your time to do other things in life, questioning can cause stress.
• Experiment with different identities
Try on different gender identities from time to time, maybe say for a month or week for each gender you feel you might be.
• Experiment with names and pronouns
Names and pronouns are important for gender identity too. There are many pronouns people use and you can try them to see if you feel comfortable with them. This also goes for names.
•Talk to someone about it
Only if you’re comfortable with it. Talk to someone close, a friend, maybe someone online who supports the LGBT community, such as myself, etc. Keeping your feelings bottled up lets out multiple feelings, things like sadness and stress and even anger. Writing is a good idea too if you don’t want to speak to someone about it.
• Do research
Looking up terms and definitions for gender can help with gender identity too. Taking out some identities or names or pronouns that you feel might be right for you can take you a few steps closer. Another thing you can do, is find a genderqueer/nonbinary/transgender person, and ask them politely how they figured out their gender and what their gender means to them personally.
• REMEMBER TO LOVE YOURSELF
No matter who you are, no matter what gender you identify as, you are valid. People may say your gender’s fake, but you know yourself better than anyone. ❤️💛💚💙💜
A new name might feel weird at first, but that doesn’t mean it’s the wrong one for you!
I’m so proud of everyone who uses neopronouns. It takes so much courage to know what you want and not be afraid to ask for it. I hope you find people who are understanding and supportive.

it’s okay to be afraid or anxious about using neopronouns. that doesnt make your courage less impressive. youre doing wonderfully, and i hope those around you respect your choice.

3 ½ years on T, 3 years post top surgery, and turning 55 in July 😳. It’s never too late.
<3
This makes me so happy
Never too late!!!!!
Whoever this is, bless you. Fucking bless you. Even if I don’t have the resources to transition soon, this gives me hope that I can still become the man I want to be 20+ years in the future. Thank you, thank you, thank you. And thank you to everyone who reblogged this until it reached my dash, too. Thank you for giving me the ability to see this. I have HOPE now.
take a look at this man! it is lovely to see older members of the trans community!
Can I ID as trans and nonbinary?
I’m so sorry for the late response, but yes you can! I do. You don’t even have to be aligned with a particular gender to consider yourself trans and nonbinary.
Being aro-spec or ace-spec or both is not something you should have to be ashamed of in any context, IRL or online. It’s a peice of your identity like any other. I’m sorry if you don’t have a place where you feel safe expressing your aspec identity. I hope you find community somewhere.
Shoutout to aro-spec people
To those who want a romantic relationship and those who don’t
To those who use additional labels for their orientation and those who don’t
To those who tell people about their aro-spec labels, those in the closet, and those who outwardly use “simpler” words for their identity
To those whose aro-spec orientation is central to their lives and those for whom it is just a detail
There is no “typical” aromantic spectrum experience. You are valid no matter what.

You can enjoy your body and still be nonbinary.
Your happiness and pleasure in this regard will not undermine the fact that you're nonbinary.
Your experience with your own body is unique to you, and you get to make the rules here.
if you’re a guy struggling with a mental illness, you are not weak, expressing emotion doesn’t make you any less “manly” – you are valid and loved
if you’re a woman struggling with mental illness, you’re not hysterical, the emotions you express do not deserve to be taken less seriously - you are valid and loved
if you are anywhere else on the gender spectrum, or non-binary, and you’re struggling with mental illness, you’re so strong, it’s okay to express your emotions, the emotions you have don’t determine how masculine or feminine you are - you are valid and loved
Pride Colours day 5: Nonbinary Pride! I don’t have the cash to have the Pride Cats made into merch myself, so I put them on society6! I will ad all the cats one after another! At the moment there’s the Bi, Aro, Pan and Nonbinary Cat up! You can get them as stickers, bags & other things! https://society6.com/potoh
Some will feel that nonbinary people are too “confusing” and “abnormal” to ever try to understand or accept.
But, that is because our beauty and magnificence is more than they can grasp.
Their limited existence is no reason for you to dim your glory.
