⭐GENDER EXPRESSION AND IDENTITY⭐
Things don’t always line up the way it seems like they would or should. Clothes can be an expression, but also mean something different to everyone. Gender is an experience, not a fixed location.
Please check out Laneha House, the small press who edited and printed the anthology The BAYlies that this is included in!
Transcript:
“I consider myself trans masculine. Throughout my life I’ve swung between presenting more masculine and more feminine.”
“It’s not that I felt equally boy and girl, it was more like… [BOY MODE] [GIRL SUBROUTINE]”
“Sometimes dressing "as a boy” would just make my dysphoria worse.“
"Excuse me, young lady!” [FAILURE]
“And sometimes dressing "as a girl” could enhance the boy feeling. (Maybe my wires got crossed or something…) It was kinda like it make me hyper aware of it.“
"Gender identity doesn’t always align with typical expectations of masculine or feminine gender expression. I just want to wear what makes me feel good!”
