I probably have the most tolerant nephew in the world. At church today I was dropping him off for class and this stupid kid yells “NO GIRLS ALLOWED!” to which I responded “I’m not a girl. Right Carter?” and my nephew smiles and says “Yup, he’s my uncle, and she’s my aunt, but neither at the same time.”
I just froze. I almost started to cry. This kid is amazing, he just understands. He was the first person I told I was gay, and I asked if he understood and he did, and I asked if he wouldn’t like me anymore because of it, and he said “You’re still the same person, so why’s it matter?”
He is just the best little guy. Also he drew this in church today!
Also I have to goto work soon, but,
Me: I wanna play prince of persia! *starts it up and gets to the title screen* ugh Im so bored I don’t wanna push buttons narghghghghg *quits* …the fuck did I just do?!
Also I love how my last post was of a deep gender related rant and then this shit.
[[Wow this is deep. Literally speechless. Its a good philosophy. Gender shouldnt matter just the same as ethnicity or age shouldnt define the person.]]
Thanks, and yeah I just can’t commit to a gender anymore, I just do things because I’m a person, whether they’re feminine or masculine. I have a hello kitty wallet with me every time I cosplay as Dave from Homestuck though, it’s pretty funny.
You worded yourself very beautifully, Sam. Or should I call you Sinclair, dear? Whichever your prefer. You want to be your own person. Such a simple thing and yet, it’s so difficult to explain.
Sandy! And thanks, you have no idea how nice it is to hear this, I just wish they could see me as a person, not a girl, but eh I love my friends to death. Thanks for reading that wall of text there. Sam, Eric, Sinclair, Dave, anything it’s all the same to me XD
I’m havin’ em. As a few people that follow this blog may know I’m Agender, which unfortunately it seems isn’t really recognized or understood by most people. Anywho, I had an amazing moment the other day when I went to be my sister’s patient for schooling. She is a cisgendered heterosexual female, and she’s pretty religious (mormon), yet she’s very tolerant and accepting of me and I love her more than anything. One of her classmates asked if she had brought in her younger brother, to which she corrected I was a female. Immediately the classmate was very embarrassed and my sister further went on to say “Well Sam doesn’t really have a gender, so I bet they won’t mind.” This is the first time she’s recognized my lack of gender and used they instead of she. I wanted to cry, it felt so amazing and I was surprised, thinking she’d never understand because of how comfortable she is being [what is considered in mainstream society] a normal female. On the other hand I have my four close friends whom I love very much, but only a few of them seem to understand this, despite being open-minded. A cisgendered heterosexual female friend of mine, again and I love her anyways, insists on calling me by female pronouns and associating other feminine things with me, to an extent. When I’m cosplaying as a male, they still treat me as a female, even if they call me by the character’s name and I really hurts. When I dress up, I’m not myself in that moment. If I was dressed up as a female character then I wouldn’t mind, but when I’m a male, I’m a male, and when I’m myself I’m neither. If you’ve read all this shit, then my question here is how can I explain this to them gently? I don’t want to be a girl, ever, but I don’t quite want to be a man either. I just want to be a person, defined by my actions.
I’d also like to add I have a cisgendered heterosexual male friend who totally gets this, which again is odd cus he’s open-minded but usually thinks everything is black and white, yes or no, but damn man he’s the best. <> bro love over here Jacob.
We I need a Delta so bad on the rp.

If I have ever used the word “overbearing” to describe you, I meant it as a compliment! I have always thought that it meant “being kind enough to bear with someone,” but I only just found out that it can be used as an insult.
So sorry agfds!

to a Sinclair one. He’s just a lot more fun to play~
