Hi guys. I've been going by "just plain" genderqueer (I've been through various titles under that umbrella term including agender and pangender and genderfluid) for about a year and a half now. I just recently (about 3 months ago) switched to gender neutral pronouns (they, them, their) so I'm out as genderfluid at school and with my parents. I've been getting a lot of negative feedback about my pronouns and I was thinking about dropping them until last week happened. I had this sort of breakdown and started thinking about doing more than just chest surgery. I was thinking and thinking and I think I might want to take testosterone and go by male pronouns. I don't know if I should tell anyone right now, because I haven't had time to think over this enough, but I'm not sure if I should keep going with the gender neutral pronouns, switch back to female ones, or start on the male ones. Plus, my family would throw a fit if they found out I wanted to go by male pronouns. I currently consider myself a genderfluid transboy, but I have no idea what to do about it in regards to people. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

My only suggestion is to take the pronouns that you feel most comfortable with.  Do what's best for you.  It may take family time to adjust, but it will be okay.

Have you come out yet?
