I thought that was just me. I honestly like to ramble about the same things over and over again sometimes. So, I've probably said something similar before. Sorry about that. Link to comment

How did you realize you are nonbinary? Ooooo, that's a tough one. I don't really know if I can pinpoint exactly when or how, but here's a few things I can remember that led me to the eventual conclusion: - I never felt entirely comfortable in gendered bathrooms, like at school and stuff (which might be connected to my omo fetish but that's a whole other story). - I knew I was "gay" for a long time, though the label never quite felt like it fit me to be honest, I do still use it though because it gets to point across. - Never liked clothes that were more seen as being for one gender compared to the other, not a day in my life. I don't like suits, I don't like dresses. I don't like makeup, I don't like ties. I almost never wore blue or pink, even. - I preferred being referred to in a gender neutral way rather than in a masculine way, despite having nothing against being referred to as he/him. That's what I got off the top of my head. Link to comment

Once you find out for yourself whether you are trans or NB or not, it feels great to have that discovery and be able to become your actual self. The process of like, getting there and shiz is not nearly as great. Link to comment

Makes me wish I never started questioning my gender. I was a lot happier living in blissful ignorance. That's probably just me though. Link to comment

I've been called transphobic before over stuff like not liking the video game Celeste. By several different people I might add. I really wish people didn't throw the word transphobic as willy-nilly as they do. Paints trans people in a bad light if you as me. Link to comment
