I'm late also, so starting out:
1)
Do you use any other terms to define or explain your gender? No. I prefer male pronouns, but will accept anything, although I feel slightly dysphoric with female terms. Maybe neutral pronouns would work best, if they were universally accepted.
2)
How did you grow up with your gender? I was a tomboy, and clueless about being a girl. I tried, though. I just thought the rest of the people of the world were crazy.
3)
What's your favorite ways of upsetting gender roles:
I simply dress androgynously, drive a motorbike, and do things that make me happy, no matter what cis people my age like to do.
4)
Name some queer heroes, influences, or crushes My main hero is Lady Gaga
5)
Dysphoria and how you manage it: It used to be unbearable and I almost started on T, then found that derris scandens, a local Thai herb, blends my female and male personalities, so I feel peaceful.
6)
When did you realize you were Genderqueer? In 2013, when I read a book,
Transgender Voices: Beyond Women and Men7)
What are your favorite physical features of yourself? I'm slender and athletic, even though I'm 64 years old.
An unpopular or unsure opinion about the GSM community:
Since the Trump election, people online seem more hostile than ever toward anyone LGBTQ.
9)
What have you done or plan to do to socially transition? I came out to my close friends and immediate family, but they didn't seem to care, since I remain the same..androgynous clothing, acting like a tomboy. However, my ex-husband says he's planning to transition to female and wants to live with me. That would definitely "out me.
10)
Are you taking any steps to physically transition? No. I almost did, but the the derris scandens dissipates dysphoria.
11)
Your first experience with a GSM organization or event I've only encountered GSM groups on forums. But I live in Thailand, so I see gender variance all the time in the mainstream.
12)
Discuss your relationship with the term transgender:
I'm partially transmale
13)
How has your family taken it or how might they take it? They didn't react, but I didn't do anything different from usual..just continued to act the same way.
14)
Are you part of the Gender and Sexuality Minority community? Yes. I'm partially transmale, gender fluid, agender, androgynous, asexual, demisexual, panromantic.
15)
How do you deal with gendered things? Clothes shopping, bathrooms, forms, etc.In my case, there's no problem with dressing rooms, since I resemble an androgynous female. As for clothes, I prefer to design/sew them for myself, so I can skate along the gender line, or buy male casual clothing. For forms, I hesitate, but can check the "female" box.
16)
Name some media you connect with queerlyI prefer to watch movies and TV series on Netflix with LGBTQ characters.
17)
How do you, or would you, deal with being misgendered?I don't worry about it, for now. My ex husband genders me correctly, as well as the Thai (I currently live in southern Thailand)
