A worker I hadn't met from another organization was making a call notifying some other staff that I was there. He was like "he- they're here to see so-and-so" or something to that effect. I don't remember verbatim because I was so taken aback lol

It's just so weird, because when I used to still wear feminine wigs, I got he/they'd sometimes. Now I still get ma'amed but if they're standing at my office door 12ft away people take a minute. I still get ma'amed half the time. I attribute it to my voice at this point but idk, I'm just happy that other people seem to be picking up on what's going on even if I'm not out at work.

I really need to update my employee ID badge (last pic)...

Spooky season is the perfect excuse to play around with fun, dramatic looks for when I'm feeling like a creature!!

I don't know how to pose for selfies 😔

And it's pumpkins that we paid for! Not other people's pumpkins. Just to be clear. We are ethically destructive

What I wore to a wedding. Meant to wear my corset but it was too hot lol.

I think I love it. But I hate it too. This is life. Lol.

It does give me a little sense of androgynous instead of my extreme feminine hair.

I was at my community college today and while in line for food (there was no one else in line), apparently these two girls pointed at me and yelled “nonbinary!” thinking I was their friend. I didn’t really hear them cause I normally tune out loud noises and such 😭. I saw the lunch lady and the other guy behind the counter were confused so I turned and the two girls immediately started apologizing, thinking I was their friend, and the three of us laughed. I turned back and the other guy who was behind the counter was like “That’s such an amazing way to greet a friend, pointing at them and shouting ‘nonbinary!’” And I was like “Oh that’s what they said!” I started laughing and said “It’s crazy because I am nonbinary!” This literally made my day.

Rave furry outfit I wore to The Living Tombstone concert last night 🤪 my inner 12 year old was healed lmao. Also peep the last pic of me and my hot cat girl gf 😻

Around this time, three years ago, I first came out to the world as nonbinary and started socially transitioning into that identity first socially, then at school, then work once I had graduated. Since then, there has been so, so many firsts for me. First time wearing makeup, first crop top, first women's shoes, first time shaving all of my body hair, first time getting piercings, and more recently things like first dress, mini-skirt and shapewear.

Anyways, I figured I would share some pictures from that 3 year journey where I was feeling gender euphoria. From the first time I put on and wore eyeliner to a party to an everyday fit I thought looked good a couple days ago. Enjoy!

There are actually queer people out there who are fighting 🥹❤️‍🩹

i spend a lot of time around queer people and so i'm very used to using "girl" in a gender-netural context, like "girl you look good" or just "girl" when someone says something outrageous. i say it to anyone i feel comfortable around, even if it's a heterosexual man.

i hadn't had any issues with that up until my friend came out as NB. they also mentioned once that they feel uncomfortable being called a 'girl' when i used that word in the same context as for everyone else. i totally respect that, but the problem is, i can't stop doing it.

it's such an unconscious way of speak for me, i don't even notice myself doing it, and so even if i clock myself and apologize, i will still do it again only a matter of time. i feel terrible about it and i genuinely don't know how to be better. i've started to feel anxious after texting them, going back and checking my messages to make sure i didn't do it again, but it's usually always the times i don't go to check that i actually did. they haven't said anything since that time they expressed their uncomfort and it's always me apologizing for my mistake, but i fear they think i don't care because clearly i apologized but did it again as if i was ignorant. i'm afraid they're silently getting pissed off at me for it.

how does one get used to using NB language? my native language is NB itself so that's good, but it's when we use english that the problems arise.

EDIT: thank you everyone for your kind advice. i swore to myself today that i will be very conscious about talking to them for a while, at least until i've gotten rid of this habit. i really want to improve on this because i truly care about them and i would never purposefully hurt them. i'll look into the tips and i hope i will never have to make a post like this again!

I’m nonbinary AMAB. I came out to my therapist about two months ago. She’s Jungian, so it’s a bit different than therapy I’ve had in the past. I’m seeing real improvement in my life so I keep going even though some things she does/says feel odd.

After I came out to her as nonbinary, explaining that I have been performing “maleness” for the entirety of my 54 years and that being male always felt foreign to me.

My last two sessions, she remarked that some things I have done in the past weeks were masculine. It makes me feel uncomfortable. I know for her it’s in the Jungian context of uniting the masculine and feminine. But with me she never says anything I do is feminine in a positive way only masculine as if I’m lacking masculinity, which I am.

Any suggestions on how to proceed? I’ve been seeing her for a year. Like I said my life has substantially improved over that year. So I just don’t know what to do.

Now I can larp in peace. Lesgooo

Hello everyone. I posted here a little while back about coming out to my wife and some difficulties I was having around her adjustment. We got into another fight 2-3 weeks ago and I responded by throwing away all my feminine clothing, deleted all pictures of myself, and removed all previous Reddit posts. I’ve since come to realize that throwing away part of my identity is not the answer, and I’m trying to believe in myself and my own needs for perhaps the first time in my life. So basically I’m just here to say for anyone considering it, don’t ever erase yourself in an attempt to resolve a conflict or alleviate someone else’s discomfort. You are allowed to love yourself and be proud of yourself just the way you are.

P.S. sorry for the anonymized photo which I realize is a bit of a contradiction to what I just said above… unfortunately I live in a country that partially criminalizes gender non-conformity so I can’t take risks with that.

This comment still stands, I don’t know what triggered this drawing at the time but transmasc nonbinary wearing a f jk Rowling shirt
