Howdy! I’ve identified as genderfluid comfortably for a good while now, but I’m starting to question myself a bit again— I find it very rare for me to identify as female, and if I do, it’s not for very long at all. Any other time, I feel way more masculine, neither, or some combination of the two. I don’t know, but i typically feel more masculine and neutral over anything else, and I’ve grown a slight attachment to another name other than the neutral one I’ve been using. Any advice?

Hello!

Just because you’re genderfluid does not mean that you have to switch between masculine and feminine and neutral. Lots of people only have one or two of these, some people have much more. For example, you could switch between masculine and neutral and that still can be labeled genderfluid.

Of course, questioning yourself is not a bad thing. Sometimes things change and it’s better to keep an open mind about change. Don’t box yourself into anything. We’re all individuals.

As for your name. If you feel like starting to use a new name, try testing it out a little. Use it to introduce yourself to people you probably won’t talk to again. Change your name on some of your social medias, or use it when playing a video game. Once you test it out, you’ll probably know whether it’s something that you want to use full time or not.

Hope this helps!

I figured out that I'm transmasc (afab) and I want to come out to my family. I know my mom would be accepting, but I'm not sure about my stepdad. My stepdad and I don't exactly get along all the time. He isn't all that accepting about gay relationships (God made Adam and Eve and all that), so I don't know what his reaction to nonbinary gender would be. I would be moving out in a year so it could wait, but that also means having to keep who I am to myself until then. Thoughts?

Hi Anon!

I’m honestly the type of person who is very non-confrontational, so personally I would just wait till I was out of the house.

However, if you come out to your mom and she is accepting then she can help you come out to your stepfather, and even if he isn’t as accepting he definitely wouldn’t have as much power over the situation if your mom was on your side.

As for being closeted. Even if you come out to your mom and not your stepdad, you will be able to express yourself more freely. Maybe your stepdad might not respect your pronouns or stuff like that, but you could probably get away with dressing how you want and overall presenting how you want.

In the end though, it’s your choice. Good Luck!

hey! i have been out as genderfluid to most of my friends for quite a while now and i have been recently experimenting with different pronouns depending on how i feel. i asked my friends to call me by different pronouns but they said that its too much hassle changing pronouns every day. but i feel more comfortable changing pronouns. help?

Hi Anon!

It can be a bit of a challenge for your friends to change pronouns every day, which is why they probably don’t even want to give it a try. However, if you show them that it’s not that hard at all they’ll probably be more open to it.

I don’t know how comfortable you feel with this idea, but I think having some sort of visual marker for your pronouns will really help them. That way you don’t have to update them verbally all the time, and they don’t have to ask you either. Some version of this include a bracelet of a specific color to indicate different pronouns. For example, a purple bracelet for they/them, blue bracelet for he/him, etc. You can pick other colors too if you don’t want to enforce gender norms. If a bracelet isn’t your wave, it could be any other type of accessory. Or even a pin with your pronouns on them.

Something like that might really help. If this isn’t really your thing. I think you should ask one of your closer friends to support you and your pronouns. Once you get one person to start doing it, it becomes easier for larger groups to do it too.

Hope this helps!

Hey, I’ve been wondering whether I should come out to my family. I’ve been a closeted gender fluid for about 2-3 years now, and I really want to tell them. Unfortunately, my mother is pretty rude about trans and - to an extent - gender fluid and non-binary people. And yet, I feel like I need to tell someone. I’ve already come out to my best friend - who’s bi and super supportive - so I feel like I should. My father is ok with LGBTQ+ so I feel I should come out to him. What do you recommend? Ty

Hi Anon!

If your father is okay with the lgbtq community then it’s probably best to come out to him first.

Whether on not you should come out or not is up to you. The issue of coming out really depends on what you want to result from your coming out. If you have new name/pronouns and you want your parents to use them, then it makes sense to come out.

My advice is coming out to your father first, and then using him to gain support with your mother about gender identity.

I want to wear cute girl clothes but i always get embarrasssed or jealous at the thought of it since im pretty manly looking. Advice? Thoughts?

My thoughts are wear whatever the fuck you want, who cares what you look like. My advice is take it slow. Buy some cute accessories or a few pieces of clothing and add them to whatever your already wearing. Stuff like this is all about aesthetic. And if your aesthetic is wearing cute girly clothes over a masculine body then that’s a dope aesthetic. Fashion is all about confidence, and if you’re confident enough people won’t question what you’re wearing.

If you really need to build your confidence I would wear something like that to a gay bar or a drag night, you’ll probably get lots of compliments and that’ll help you feel more confident.

But, I find that being of the “I don’t give a fuck” and “life’s too short” mindsets really help. Also people might judge you and that’s probably what you’re afraid of, but what are those people gonna do about it? They probably won’t do much more than give you some looks (ofc depending on where you are). And fashion is always about turning heads so... just have fun and be yourself.

Has anyone else had the experience of your deadname kind of tainting the letter it starts with? My deadname starts with an M and I was considering the name Matt for a bit. But even considering other M names, the thought of still having that letter as an initial made me feel icky inside. Is that normal?

That’s totally normal. Some people choose names similar to their deadnames because of familiarity and feeling close to that identity. Other people choose something completely different because they never had that familiarity and didn’t feel close to the identity that was connected to their deadname. Everyone is different.

Hi!! I just found this blog and it was the only place I could find that I felt comfortable asking this. I’m currently questioning and have the feeling as though I may be genderfluid, as some days I feel distinctly masculine and others I want to be as feminine as humanly possible. There are even days where I feel like neither. I don’t mean to sound off putting or anything, but is that what genderfluid is?? I’m really not sure and figured I’d come to someone who could help me understand.

Hi Anon!

What you describe could definitely be considered genderfluid. You don’t sound off putting at all. This is a totally valid question and so are your feelings, but you didn’t need me to tell you that, did you.

Sorry if I’m assuming anything, but you sort of sound like you’re trying to justify your gender/validity in this ask and you don’t need to do that. Focus on yourself and what you feel. You shouldn’t feel like you don’t belong in this space.

I think just doing research and talking to people will really help you out in figuring yourself out. If you want to you can private message me anytime! Genderfluid is just a label, so don’t stress yourself out about it. Just take your time and listen to your feelings.

Hi.. I kinda need some advice. I'm biologically female and recently came out as genderfluid to my fiance. (I only recently realized that I was) and he says he accepts me.. Yet every time I dress more masculine (I lean more towards masc/andro) he gets upset and asks why I haven't been wearing makeup anymore and why I wear those clothes. And he refuses to let me get a binder and didnt like when I cut my hair off. How can I get him to understand that this isn't just a "fad" as he calls it??

Hi Anon!

I think you should just sit down and talk to him about it. You should let him know that you feel like he isn’t as accepting as he says he is. Even if you gotta argue with him a little, I think just straight up confronting him would lead to the most positive outcome. You have to stand up for yourself. You’re grown, he can’t tell you what to buy or wear or do.

You should ask him why he doesn’t like it when you dress more masculine or why he doesn’t like you with short hair. Maybe rather than some transphobia popping out, he feels insecure or like he doesn’t really know you anymore.

I really think just having a conversation with him will help you out the most, even though it might be hard. Open communication is the key to any good relationship.

Good luck.
